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.

https://discord.gg/skisoutheast

Converse on all ski and snowboard subjects - All things skiing, snowboarding, Q&A, gear, etc.

Please attempt to keep all comments within this forum related to skiing or snowboarding related content.

After some thought I am wondering if we all believed the hype and not reality. I feel like I got sucked into the media frenzy of "Bode is the best, Bode can't be beat" and then "Bode is not serious enough, he parties too much".



Maybe the story line is Bode gets beat by other great ski racers, thats it...dull, no marketing angle but true

What's the name of the game they play on a card with numbers and letters on it for money? I think they have a whole building dedicated to it in Cherokee.
