The End of an Era...We are Shutting Down the Messageboard
The messageboard is now in read-only mode and no new posts or topics can be created. We will leave the messageboard up for historical purposes, but you will not be able to make new posts or comment on existing ones.
We have started a Discord server and hope that you all will join us on there. Technology has changed over the years and maintaining the messageboard has become somewhat of a pain in the butt and Discord offers many features for users, the main one being a very polished mobile app.
We really hope you all will join us on Discord and think you will like the platform. Use the invite link below to join.

Isn't it better to ski groomed runs with maybe a thin layer of powder where you can go faster and all. I tried sking a lift line t sugar last season where the snow was waist deep and I couldn't even move in it let alone ski! I don't know, maybe I'm just jealous cause you guys do make it look so effortless. Just seeing all those exposed rocks and stuff makes me think it's probally best I stick to the groomed runs to avoid killing myself but hats off to you guys that can ride that deep stuff:>)
if you want groomers, move to Utah. This is North Carolina or as I like to call it "Powder Country".

EPIC FAIL
1. Lift line at sugar before the 3/4 station is very flat = no good for pow
2. You really need to ski some light dry fluffy pow to understand.
3. lose the carving skis...fatter skis can carve great these days
