Sunapee 1/4 Mogul Report

[powbmps]

Took two runs on Lift Line. Great bump lines. Traversed to Flying Goose to find some firm, wind affected bumps. Maybe some traffic will get them skiing a little better.

First three runs were on my MoJo90's. Very impressed with how they handle the bumps. Took a quick break to switch to my Assaults. After the 90's they felt like little kid skis . I hate to admit it, but the Head's make me realize how "unfun" mogul skis are out of the bumps.

Tried out the new section on Cataract. Hero lines, but it would be tough to lap the trail, as it is best accessed from the North Peak chair, and ends up at the bottom of the Sun Bowl. You can always traverse over on North Peak Pass, but that sucks. Finished up with three more runs on Lift Line.

Psyched to get a day back in the bumps!

Please refrain from using the combination of all capitals and actual names in your posts........:wink:.

Sunapee is saying they received 13" over the weekend. That sounds reasonable. They were able to get all of their glades open. I accidently veered into the woods and the cover seemed pretty good.

I'm scared of confrontation, so I tend to take off when other bumpers show up.

Please.....call me Chris. I was feeling like an old man a couple weeks ago. I'm using poles but concentrating on a "lighter touch". Also trying to plant on the backside so I don't get jammed. Rocking the old school back support. Not the fancy Valeo, but one of these:

I love the way my fat hangs over the top. Plus it comes in handy at the warehouse :lol:.

I've got a midweek pass, so if anyone is ever up then give me a holla. Yo. I can usually get out for a run or two.
