    It is an awesome setup... Board is so flexible and just looks so smooth. Where do you normally ride?

    When you guys say your local... how local are you? I'm a minimum 2 hours away from any mountain.

    Has anyone been to Bear Creek Mountain in PA? I'm in Ocean Co. and it seems that Bear Creek and Blue are just as close as Mountain Creek... Maybe even quicker to get to... just wondering if its worth it to escape the annoying Creek crowds...

    Bear is a Joke. Their lips to their hits are tiny cheese wedges and most of the Mtn is all ice. Blue this week has been all Pow and with all the other mtns north of it are too.
