Plan accordingly. Sunny and 56 after a day of rain. Slush moguls that should be built up nice after tomorrow. Granite exposure is to be expected. Mandatory trough hopping. Skip the tunes. I'll be there early to scrape up the slush.

Damn, looks like it's going to be a great day at the institution! Rip it up guys!

Very true, the lines to the sides need the attention...

Mr. Shovel speaks the truth. The first time I tried I was way to slow and came down on the flat way before the transition. The snow was soft, so my skis sunk in and I did a front flip down onto the transition. It was kinda fun, but only because the snow was super soft. I eventually got up to going fast enough that I was just barely making the transition. If I can do it anyone can! Just keep your weight forward!
