East Coast Roll Call 6.0 Get Your Stoke On!

[laseranimal]

If those people who don't have the cock on ignore would do all of us a favor and NOT quote his posts that'd be sweet


Got a hall pass for tomorrow and was thinking of heading to MRG anyone know how the upper mountain is skiing?

[DoWork]

Kumbaya!!

What's the matter, douchebag? Experiencing some shrinkage? Go fuck yourself.

[Skrilla Gorilla]

Actually Buttah works at the Totem Pole- great crew over there for sure. Their new machine is mind blowing. It's like a Swiss cuckoo clock that sucks your skis in beat and spits them out shiny and perfect. If you need a grind, click your heels twice and say "there's no place like pole"

The Boot Pro does handle all my custom boot work though. Geake, Shon, Matt and the whole crew couldn't get a higher rec from me for boots.

Hope that helped!

Got a beat to hell pair of used Heads for the Mrs tuned there and they came out looking brand fucking new. +1 on Totem Pole for a base grind. Bring a tall boy.

[akokskis]

boot pro?
fuck those guys.
Totem Pole forevah, biatches

Well then, I stand corrected. Will give the totem pole a shot next time I need a tune. Was strongly thinking about making the drive down there just for the tune, my sticks need it for all the ice I've been skiin (although hopefully not for much longer!)

So happy for those getting the goods in all the various locations!

Southern, VT on the other hand has not fared so well. I don't want to drag the stoke down, but I know there are some folks looking to head up to the Magic area this weekend. Want to give some insight into what they might find. I woke up to 4 inches of new at my house in Chester. Precip had stopped for the moment. By the time I got the kid off to day care and headed for the mtn, the not so good precip had started to come down in buckets. By the time I made the 20 min trip to the mtn i found the base to have about 4 inches of glop and a torrential down pour. Decided not to skin. Here is a glimpse from the bottom....

Really hoping that this turns back to flakes and we get the base we need!

Thanks for the report and pics. Saved me from driving up the hill this am.

I just wanted to join in on the hand holding and singalong.

Probably concerned that you're not there to help her out with the weather

125mph wind gust reported at the tower on Mansfield! Hope no one was poking around near the summit today.

Seriously, not only does Buttah hook it up (Thanks again dude!) but the tunes coming out of that new machine they have are mind blowing.

Looks like the rush of warm air is heading north. I was hoping that Jay would stay all snow, but that appears to be unlikely now.

[Peruvian]

Fat and rockered definitely helped in the new 4+" of wet/heavy snow this morning. High winds kept the lifts limited to the lower mountain and by the time we 'warmed up' it was raining, so we bailed on skinning to the summit.

[Chesser]

125mph wind gust reported at the tower on Mansfield!

Does anyone know what the record is? I honestly didn't think Mansfield was capable of that kind of number.

[Section ThirtyOne]

125mph wind gust reported at the tower on Mansfield! Hope no one was poking around near the summit today.

That is like what... 200km/h? Wow, those are hurricane force winds.

[gpcharles]

just POURED rain in stowe for 10-20 minutes, now it's just showring and spitting. but wow...holy CRAP. utter downpour like a midsummer thunderstorm. musta been that fast wind that just rolled in from the south had some moisture in it. woof! battening down the hatches in case it gets any worse

[Section ThirtyOne]

Just checked the Mount Washington weather station: 92.1MPH sustained winds with a 101MPH gust in the past 24h.

[FussyDutchman]

^^^

Must have been the same cloud that rolled thru here in the valley a little over an hour ago, had to have dropped close to a 1/2 in 30-40 minutes.

its interesting that today the winds on Mansfield are forecast (and actually appear) to be exceeding MTW's winds. that doesnt happen every day.

wouldn't be surprised at all. there's some MEAN looking weather rolling overhead... and the obs on the nose certainly are recording as much.

i hope the downsloping winds in jericho and cambridge stay in check. that stuff can get dangerous.
