We just got a solid coastal snowstorm down here at sea level In Va. Temps were in the upper teens when the storm hit so everything that fell was light and dry . Local weatherman said it was even 14 :1 .or so
Storm total was around 7 inches overnight (very rare here) I highly doubted the coveted local landfill that I did a TR from a few years ago has holding. But it was worth a look
Dawn patrol entrance
Upon entering the "slopes" It was 16 degrees and I was wondering why the snow guns weren't cranking.
Unfortunately the wind got the best of the hill .After hitting the ground a few times I decided to only get one run on a panel that had just enough snow to squeak out some turns.Then go look somewhere else.
Then it was off to the local golf course to check on some logs I set up to assist in building a kicker before the storm.Yep gonna have to start shoveling to build it up some.
Only after grabbing a few quick turns first .
The snow was very light and dry so the jump building was a challenge .But with some help from the local sledders we got enough of a lip for an old park rat to come out of retirement . Watch out puppy !
Texted several peeps to get in on the session and no one showed . They are all getting old and lame. Plenty of fun with the local shredders though.
Josh is 9 and never snowboarded before but was charging on my 159 snowboard .
He didn't want to give it back . He eventually did and was back at it on his sled
Lots of fun has had . Loved the vibe of everyone out having a blast in the rare snow we get here
Straight air guy.
