I think hes crazy because what if his toes get stuck to the rail or item of choice? ??? Or it might hurt more when you die from slipping because the ice will keep you alive longer  ;). lol just be careful man.

I'm starting to feel better about moving to Florida.  Anyone stuck in the snow is welcome to come visit.

I would like to go to Florida but I can't live without snowboarding along with PK. In the snow you can do them both at the same time, how you say? Well I havn't thought of that yet, hmmmm. Nope it can't happen can it?

I am just starting to feel good about living in Colorado. We got the best skiing in the nation, with aspen and Vail, and all of this snow, it is like heaven :D yay!  Also, i don't see Florida getting any snow days, like the one i am probably having at least once this week. lol.  And, blizzards are the only natural disaster Colorado has. ;D    O man, looks like the low for tonight is 10 below! woah, that is cold.

it's all about utah.

just over 30 minutes to any of 6 resorts, oh yes.  the valley also tends to stay warmer, because of the intense elevation change going up into the mountains.  warm down here, feet upon feet of snow up there.

snowbird+alta=the sex

super fine powder very often, nice soft snow.  can't wait to try out my new skis, i've only been on my rock-pair so far.

i actually have kept up my parkour in the winter, but i avoid rail  precisions because my shoes are usually wet on the bottom from the snow.

Holy crap guys, you can keep the cold to yourselves! :)

I'm in Charlotte, NC and last night we had our first frost-over of the season. Got into the high-20's last night and I am pissed off a/b it. I really hate the cold. It's going to be ~32 tomorrow evening and I am seriously questioning going to a jam that'll be mostly outside. Oh noes!  :o -too cold for me!

no, we also have tornadoes, avalanches, droughts, wildfires, and more.

first of all, tornadoes are so uncommon and only happen way out east by Kansas where nobody live practically. Second, droughts are more of a
natural annoyance  :) than a natural disaster. but with wildfires and avalanches you pretty much got me there, but avalanches aren't as big as most natural disasters.  Also, keep in mind i was comparing Colorado to Florida. And we all know that Florida gets hit the hardest with hurricanes and such. Colorado rarely gets any serious natural disasters.

Dude so was I, hole crap. I bet people do this all the time, how convenient of a soft rolling surface for even better practice or juicing up. ;D
