moderately crusty 😂 but we still call it a powder day

that last bit of glades is between Solitude and Nancy

@dizgotti1355 did you cut across or hike up and drop in from the top? Nice vid!

@@patferris3640 I cut across. Haven't seen the hike route open yet this season.

@@dizgotti1355 my buddies dropped it last Saturday and on down into Grace Lakes

@patferris3640 dope! did yall have to hike out?

yeah, early season conditions for sure 😅 was following ski patrol for part of it

for the editing: megaview 100-115, mostly 100 and 105. this is on insta360 x3

is the snow lighter and softer out east?

@ yes not as wet and heavy. Recommend going to 49 degrees north or mission ridgr

It does ha! I don't remember being up there. Is it similar in steepness when getting of the old high campbell lift at Crystal?

ion know what ur smoking but i need me some of that

I don't think so; might want to call Stevens and ask if they give a discount though

was the best conditions of the season for me this day 🎉

it was a special treat to find powder up top at the end of March. the snow flurries throughout the week kinda randomized where the pow was and the trails to get to them weren't always easy. those rocks though 8_8 .. I cringe every time I rewatch; thankfully, no real damage to my base

@dizgotti1355 that's awesome!!!! Def gotta hit up whistler next season. Glad the board is good!

No control no skill but that is snowboarding for normal people.

Burton, they came out with some new colorways mid to late season✨️ waterproofing holds up pretty decent & no forever chemicals 🙌🏽

Stevens snow held up a little better this season. Snoqualmie/Alpental is awesome too though 😎✨

Genesis has a slightly more cushioned footbed and nicer straps, plus the double-take ratchets give you up to 4 clicks each time you tighten versus 3 clicks on the Cartels. The Cartel is still a very comfortable binding, just not quite as cushy. They are the same stiffness. The Cartel X is stiffer than the Genesis though, making it more responsive than the Genesis or the regular Cartel.

I had Cartel a while back and the buckles would come loose in icy conditions. the Genesis have a held up better for me.

most fun day of the season 🎉

volume shifted board so it's short and fat. I haven't tried the size up, but may need to demo it to see. I normally ride symmetrical so it took some getting used to with the longer nose, you'll see me clip n snag the nose every now and then.

😅

the snow does have some weight to it 🥵 and it's leaning on the slushy side at these lower elevations; but I'm just glad the crust got covered up 🎉

@@dizgotti1355 had that sound to it, glad you're getting your ride on, stay safe 🤘

lol longer or wider; long will make the tight turns pretty challenging. i rode a 157W a few years back and loved it but was so much more work 😅 so now I'm on a 155W, but it's a park board not really made for pow 😂

it ranges from 40 to 55 degrees in the upper half 😅

Skis do the same if not good enough also they create fucking moguls 🤮

First of all, skiers do absolutely the same thing, this snowboarders vs skiers is a cute joke, but when people take it seriously it's clinical. Second of all, yes, it's not the best way to learn how to ride down the spot, but it's a way to progress. And finally, it's not your slope and not your snow, who do you think you are? If you want to ask politely to do something differently or explain how to improve, you are welcome. What you are doing is just hate speech.

Well, I thought would be watching some snowboard video...

bring your board out and show me how it's done 🌟 I'm always trying to improve my technique, still got a ways to go, no doubt

U assume that I ride, only said about watching a snowboard video :) Sorry, was a bit sassy, keep up, all good
