Wow! I'm always shocked when somebody not only recognizes Torrington, but actually knows the area.
I keep saying I'm going to move away, but yet here I still am for all of my life but 8 months.

Nothing wrong with a place where the roots run deep

Right now I'm glad to be close to family, too.

Hello. I've been reading this board sporadically for a while now and figured it would be good if I joined and began contributing to the discussions. I grew up in Connecticut and learned to ski, and then snowboard, at Powder Ridge. As a teenager, I used to take a lot of trips up to Southern/Central Vermont areas (Magic, Mt. Snow, Okemo, Pico, etc.). I'm now 32, live in Eastern MA and my home mountain is Sunday River. I've been snowboarding almost exclusively ever since I caught the bug at age 13, but a couple of seasons ago I took up telemark skiing as a new challenge. I tend to break the telemarks out on windy/icy days or when I have some time on my own (which usually coincides with windy/icy days) to practice without holding other people up. Can't say I've mastered the technique yet, but I am progressing (albeit slowly). I'm not much of a park/pipe person and prefer just free riding around the mountain.
I enjoy obsessing about the weather and trying to catch those days when most reports are predicting rain/ice/wind and I end up at the mountain on a crowd-free powder day.

Welcome MassBoarder, thanks for the introduction.

Hi. I've been on this board for about a year and just noticed the "New Member Introductions Thread". Slow day a work will do that. Since I never posted here when I joined, though I would rectify that. Lets see, I like long walks on the beach, little fuzzy kittens, using IV dr... DOH wait a minute, that's for eHarmony.com, wrong forum. Ok, I'm from West Kingston, RI about 15 minutes west of URI and the mighty Yagoo. I started skiing after college when I got a good job and could afford the sport. I'm a software Engineer and work in Newport,RI. I got to Sundown twice this year and got the bump bug, and am looking forward to this next year to get better in the bumps. I'm also going to try and make an AZ outing up North this year. Unfortunatly I'm only able to get in 5-6 ski days a year due to kids and family, but hopefully that will improve.

Hello. I migrated from PASR where it was getting kinda sad... and lonely. Some people here will know me some people here won't but I'm really awesome for sure. Haha. I'm somewhat of a beginner when it comes to skiing (3.5 years on sticks, boarder for 3 years before that) but I've progressed a lot in the last year. I am sometimes inappropriate and like adult humor hence the screen name. I use "..." a lot. I hate smileys and won't ever use them so don't look for that crap in my posts. I'm a 6' tall blonde so you'll never miss me on the mountain. Oh, and I love weekend reports. That's about it.
Oops... I almost forgot... I'm a GSS groupie. Hi Papi!

Uh oh. If it makes you feel any better I'm usually an easy target. Ugh.

And I can vouch that Sexkitten is really a female, as she survived a rigorous verification/authentication process on that other now slimy MB.
(You're welcome, 'Kitten)

IDK, I've been hitting on 'Kitten for about three years and it's gone absolutely nowhere. Since I'm better looking, richer, and a far superior skier than GSS, I can't imagine she'd let him get anything on her...plus, there's the whole Bob thing.

Eh, then so could you.

No, I think I may just be too cheap. I see a pretty girl and offer her $50...and they look at me like I'm crazy. Women are complicated.

For sure..the new owner over there is a tool so all the cool PASR "GSS Groupies" are coming over here...it's no coincidence that Moe, Ski9 and Sexkitten are some of my favorite people to ski with...oh and Gorgonzola..you're cool too..lol

I had fun at PASR and skiing with a few peeps from there. When ski season rolls around, I'll prolly go back to posting there, too, for ski hookups since it is more local for me.. But there's no encouragement to keep the conversation going, even if its just silly threads. And this group is a bit more age appropriate, ie, more adults vs. young kids.
