Your Current Ski Jones Rating

Maybe we should be bringing our skis when we go camping instead of our bikes. :lol:

I'll admit, it's rising for me. But cautiously... damn gremlins in my head.

You think that thought hadn't crossed my mind already??

Frozen dew on the windshield, requiring the season's first ice scrapper usage! Jones is increasing!

On a low humidity day, you can certainly see the Presidential range. That's farther than the Canadian border.

There's no 5k-6k mountains along the Canadian border..

picked up my skis and new boots from the shop tonight. Even though my new boots are the same shell size, they reset my bindings for the new boots. But those effers reset my din to 6. I know, its no big deal to reset it but the fact that my age and weight requires such a ridiculously low din is sad.

Its almost time to SKI!!!!!

My DIN is 7 and I prolly got 20 lbs. on you. 6 might be a bit low, but not ludicrously so.

what boots did you get?

my jones just went off the chart - we just got back from the mountain for the ski group leaders meeting. I help out with a ski club at our church. Blue had a sweeeet buffet wwith $2 bottles - hop devils for me and shock tops for Mrs SnowBunski and i won a steezy blue mountain water bottle and t shirt!!!! fire up the guns the tubin' gonna be off the hook this year.....

5ish.

Picking up two skis at the shop tomorrow and dropping off another pair to get remounted as well. Probably will shop around for deals on new glove liners and ultra light socks. Gotta start cleaning out the closet soon and rounding up all my gear and clothing. Car going into the shop in a week or two for the annual pre-winter inspection and tune up. Once I am completely ready for the first day, I'll be up to a decent Jones level.

Gorgonzola is hooking me up with a midweek ticket deal to Blue, 6 for 128 for steezy inflation busting savings. Savings adds a .02 to my ski stoke for a pre season high of 7.9.

 

[ALLSKIING]

I'm at a 9....Being up at the mountain and riding the chairlift for the alpine slide got me really ready.

 

[skiing is life]

im at about an 8. waiting for cold temps for me to start make some snow.

Cutting checks for the 2nd installments for Banff and Utah. Cutting checks = -.02, being 2/3 paid off and closer to going = +.03, net stoke increase of .01 to 7.91

Getting higher! Hit some tent sales in Lincoln/North Woodstock, NH and lo and behold, a pair of Line Celebrities followed me home. (Poor Brian couldn't shake the pair of Line Anthems that followed him ) Hiked Cannon. Saw Loon South from a distance. Drove home the scenic way by Okemo, Magic, and Bromley. Getting closer to a 9 I'd say... the only thing holding me back is a little bit of fear of re-injury.

 

[GrilledSteezeSandwich]

Way up there and wow..Okemo looks flat in those pictures..lol

Around a 6-7 right now... If I don't go up to Rangeley top close down a buddy's camp in Rangeley this Friday, I may hit a shop or two to increase my hype.

Speaking of Rangeley, I still haven't skied Saddleback...

I was talked into them. The price and the fact that they have a 93mm waist helped convince me. I didn't have anything that wide, yet.

And yes, we are now very well outfitted for the season... :lol:

Sick MTB ride today. I'm cool at a 7 or so again.
