rayner i worked at sierra a few years back, sick place, lots of parks, i'd recommend kirkwood over it though, and maybe interior bc over that if you're the kind of person who has an early night to be on the first gondola
canada olympic park sucks balls, it's about a tenth the size of thredbo and has mostly man made snow. it has park stuff but so do the some of the best mountains in the world which are only two hours further away.

down in kelowna, which is the city at the bottom of big white they have shitloads of snow at the moment, im sure theres a massive scene there for rails.

if i was a skilled worker, like had a trade id do the season down there and do big white on weekends/day trips. u get to party cos your in a city and kelowna girls are hot and love the accent!

lol as for skilled at trades. i pretty much lack any skill.


however i am a fairly good digger.

lol stupid selwyn and its lack of terrain park groomers lol.

we basically had to hand shape and groom jumps/kickers
and the whole park every day n the morning and every evening.


i liked workign for teh terrain park crew it was fun.

we made sum fun shit to session with the small amounts of stuff we had to work with.

heyy, i need some help deciding which board to get..

im going to japan at the end of january, and i'm going to buy a new board before i go..
i've narrowed it down to 2 boards:
a Ride DH, and a Ride DH2DHC

i can't decide which one to get... i've read reviews about both, and they both get amazing reviews.... but i still have no idea what to get..

has anyone ridden either of these boards? if so... HELP ME DECIDE!! please :)

(ride dh2dhc on the left, ride dh on the right)
