How to ski powder

[birdman829]

You guys have a "too much powder" thread?

FKNA

Actually the thread was someone bitching about some gaper he overheard whining about "too much powder" and begging people never to utter those words.

1) lossen your boots, if you have rear entries, even better. i prefer salomon sx 91, the white ones. you want lots of movement in the boots to absorb the pow

2) get wayyy back in the back seat when you ski 'ze powder, so you are doing wheelies almost

3) make super tight turns, like bobbing up and down, think zipper line. you want to preserve the powder for your fellow riders

4) open your mouth wide to breathe better as you make all thos turns

Put an itty-bitty crust on a few feet of pow and watch 'em flip out (grin). A great day in Chugach:
