I used to ride at Liberty on the night club card haha: from MD. I came out here in 2004 and never looked back after having 700 inches in that first year. I too started splitting in 2020 and am stoked! Keep riding and keep safe. Great vid

Dude! The night club card was my jam!! My buddies and I would come up Wednesday nights usually. Got the card through school and then the local skate shop Rascals would put together a group after our school stopped doing it. So sick! We should shred some time! 🤙

Just found your channel and i am pretty stoked. I got the Jones Explorer Split 2019 with the Karakoram Prime R Bindings wich I love! Little tip: It is a lot easier to put on your skins at home before heading out in the mountains. Especially when there is not such a great weather like in your video. Saves time and effort.

Funny man, I happened upon a bunch of your videos today as I'm getting psyched for my trip to Powder Mountain for my Very Merry Unbirthday (Leap Year). I picked Skiing back up at Liberty and Round top and taught myself to board out there after the mountain was turned to Moguls in 2015. Now I'm addicted! Heading to Jay Peak, Bolton Valley, and Cannon in VT/NH in January, before Los Alamos and Sandia Peak in NM mid Feb, and Powder and Beaver UT the end of Feb. If you're down to ride Fri or Monday the end of Feb it would be cool to ride with someone who knows the spots. If nothing else just cool to randomly find someone who's out there from here.

Yea I got it he was referring to the valley of salt lake when he first looked down into the valley he’s like THIS IS THE SPOT

I bought my split setup ahead of the season in Australia, in the hope that if the resorts were closed I could still get some turns in - unfortunately lockdown put a stop to that (on the plus side, my state is hitting 40+ days with no Covid-19 outside of quarantine). I grabbed a Salomon Sick Stick Split, partly because it was a great price, but also because the skins were included. I'm building out the rest of my setup - I got some second hand Karakorum bindings from a mate which was sweet. In the video it looked like your touring partner had a Pieps beacon? If so, hopefully he's aware of the issues people have been having with the switch on the beacon not locking after a while and releasing too easily.
