its sick man. I dont know what kind of cabins they have up there but it was fun at big bear and I heard brian head in utah is fun too. Maybe this winter, depending on their prices up there I would be down to get a party up there. Be warned though, when everyone gets drunk ususally they will end up in the snow in just boxers for some reason, lol.

For snowboarding. Go to Big Bear Mountain in cali. One of the best parks in the country and 4-5hours west and you got LA and numerous beaches.

Yeah this was my first board and the guy who sold it to me said it would be a bitch to learn on but once I got the hang of it, it would be badass which was right. It cuts perfect in powder. Got a nasty gash though last season at the local mountain. Ran into ice and rocks hidden under probably two inches of snow.

Anyway people, here's that little vid that I took with my cam. Nothing fantastic, but a very special thanks goes out to those people that felt the irresistable urge to "bird" the cam. Reminds me of the response, "Is that your age, or I.Q.?"

Wanted to take more time to edit it but I'm tired and it's late.

I used to snowboard with friends back in the day. I too had a Rossignol setup. We used to hit up Canine Valley and Massanutten. I pretty much quit snowboarding though......it got too hard for everyone to setup times to go and the drive to either park sucks for us. Nothing under 2 hours from us.

Got my car back from the dealership though. After like 7 times in there, they finally figured it out. Drumroll please.......it was a rotor! Took them 7 days to figure out it was a rotor. I guess when the studs were broken and the wheel was loose for the short period of time I drove it on the busted studs (scary experience) it damaged the rotor. They put both my front stock rotors back on, but I'm sure the front right powerslot is fine, so I just gotta buy a new front left powerslot. On the bright side, they didn't charge me a dime for anything and gave me free touch up paint for their carelessness on my driver side door. So $0 to get it out of the shop and back on the road means the balt is staying. Now I just gotta get it back to where it was......like rehab for the car. Just need a new rotor and a new tire and ill be back on track!

Honestly dude, you want to buy rotorS. Not just one. It's always good to buy brake parts in pairs. Think about it...regular rotors wear down and warp, that is why when you get brake service they are suppose to turn/machine/cut the rotors. That makes it like brand new. Eventually they wear past the point where you can't cut them anymore. You must replace. I understand drill slotted/drilled/slotted rotors are suppose to prevent warpage and allow more heat disepation(sp). However, they still get really hot, and some warpage still occurs. Also they do still wear down. Now theoretically (cuz i dont know the actual sizing) say the rotors you want are 2 inches thick. You had them on your car...blah blah blah... now you want to replace one. The time you had them on your car one rotor is sitting at lets say 1.79 inches, as opposed to the other side sitting at 2 inches. Believe it or not, that little bit of size difference can creat uneven braking/uneven pad wear, and could cause a slight pull while breaking. So not trying to be an ass or anything, but it would probably be in your best intrest to buy both rotors. So since you said "powersloted" rotors, i would take this "opportunity," if you will, to get cross drilled. They help heat better...also maybe thing of upgrading to a bigger size???


And just a side note. When a tech. cuts rotors, the machine used has measurements, so when he cuts x amount off one side, he cuts the same on the other.
