I just moved here a few months ago and I am going to get back into snowboarding. I am buying a Colorado pass here in the next few weeks and getting some new boots and I will be good to go. Problem is, I don't have anybody to snowboard with.

I want to leave early to the mountains. Talkin 6 or earlier.
I like to ride everywhere. I don't only do park or only do powder. I like it all.
I am not an amazing rider, I can't do huge jumps (yet). But I can get down the mountain well enough and do some simple grabs off small airs.
I will be going up about 2 - 4 times a month on Saturdays and / or Sunday's.
I will drive every time if need be. I just ask for a small kick back on the gas.
You are more than welcome to to stay at my place the night before and drink some brew and play some video games.
I am 23 so I am looking for somebody around my age.

Or I will just post up everyweek for a solo tack on but it would be cool to ride with the same person all winter long. Plus I need to find some friends out here.

I don't usually go up on the weekend unless i'm going up with a nice group of friends. But, you're more than welcome to roll up with me during the week.

I usually ride 3 or 4 times a week. Talk to me in a couple more weeks.

Then again i'm 30. Hahaha..

Yea thats what I imagine. Snowboarding by yourself on a mountain you don't know isn't that fun so that's why I was checking on here. I wish I could go on weekday's trust me. I work the Mon-Fri job so all I have is Saturday's and Sunday's.

I'm down man. I work during the week, so only can go on Weekends and prefer to leave early too. I can do pretty much everything on the mountain except jumps. I'll pm you my info...

By "Big Kicker", he means the lil' 10 ft. table top that Mike200 and I, guts'd-ourselves-up to try last season at A-Basin.

Surprisingly, it worked out pretty good. :lol:

Ya it is...... It's the best way to discover the mountain. I ride by myself 75% of the time. Just remeber on Pow days you have no friends!!!

I hit up all the resorts during the week. But ya, primarly Loveland, Keystone, the Basin, and sometimes Breck.

I don't have any friends anyway (plus they just get in your way and stop in front of you :devil2:)... so riding the mtn alone is totally cool with me :hump:

The part that sucks is the drive up and down alone. Snowboarding alone is great to me.

Driving up/down to board all day long is still better than working.....

Driving up alone isn't so bad, it does suck on the way back if you get stuck in traffic.. esp if you have to pee and they close off the Eisenhower Tunnel.. bastards! :rant:

I hate driving up by myself, because I just get to sit alone with my anticipation, instead of chit-chatting it away with somebody. Plus, there's nobody there, to load it. :siesta:

As far as a lone ride back, I personally love it. Solitude at that point, makes the drive very relaxing and enjoyable for me. I can stop to eat wherever I want. Listen to whatever music I want. Go at whatever pace I want. Stop in Black Hawk, if I want. :lol:

I go up on the weekends to ride by my self all the time. I take my babies up with me though. My 3 year old can talk the whole way up and back. I enjoy riding by my self.

I'd be down but I'm not sure if I'm getting a pass this year, but if I do it'll probably be the 2 mountain pass. Me and my roommate go up a lot.

Regular or goofy?




Hahaha! J/k

I'm too old to chase youngsters around the mountain. Plus, If I have a beer at lunch, I'm done for the day.

I ride 3 days a week at least too, and like Matty, usually by myself, and during the week. I'm down to carpool anytime.
