Another active site, these are the boards of POWDER - The Skier’s Magazine, long the most soulful hardcore skiing periodical. I lurk about on this one too. It has a high Bro-Brah quotient. It is unmoderated so the language in use is unlimited and exceeds all boundaries I ever deemed appropriate for myself. It is frequented by hardcore ski bums, cinematographers, freeskiing pros, pro wannabes, writers, and run of the mill skiers and dirtbags. It seems to be loaded with old-school participants, but a healthy group of new schoolers are in there duking it out. Instructors are violently shunned as vile heretics of the ‘cool world.’ But then again so are most newbies who post the first few times. It is much like a hazing when the time-honored veterans cut loose on new blood. If you can take it, stick around and it is fun. There is actually a lot to be learned here. I love it since I do have a good dose of hard-core in me somewhere. ***Parental Advisory on this forum, though most of it is centered around skiing. According to the regulars, when the snow flies the environment is less caustic.
"time honered veterans cutting loose on the newblood" - what ever happend to this? I started lurking here right as it seems to have been going out of style
