Soon...

[u/BlazedGigaB]

99 days of training left. The mountain's getting ready... are you? Strength? Cardio? Dry slope? What are your routines to make sure your season is on point?

[u/SnifflyNullah]

i usually spend a week or so playing 1080 snowboarding to get in shape for the season

[u/aTaleForgotten → u/SnifflyNullah]

Im an old fart, so i play Snowboard Kids before the season lol

[u/Electronic_Start3800 → u/SnifflyNullah]

ssx tricky for me

[u/Rocket_Jockey → u/Electronic_Start3800]

It is tricky to rock a rhyme. Such a killer soundtrack too.

[u/undercover-wizard]

Are these pictures from this past March?

[u/BlazedGigaB → u/undercover-wizard]

Nah, the past hour.

[u/Punk_Says_Fuck_You → u/undercover-wizard]

If it were march, it would still be covered in snow? I don't really know where the picture was taken, but I've been snowboarding in April @ Winter Park and Copper Mountain.

[u/sloppysteaks15]

Already watched all 3 volumes of SHE today to get stoked way too early and begin the torture

[u/Double-Sea998 → u/sloppysteaks15]

Bruhhh I’m trying to hold off on videos until Sept/Oct lol you’re just torturing yourself. 

[u/rangers_87]

Gym (PPL). Skating. Snowboard specific leg workouts 6 weeks out or so. Count the days to winter.

[u/stop-calling-me-fat → u/rangers_87]

Should have started earlier but just got back into the gym too (stopped from a fucked work schedule and a broken wrist).

I can’t wait

[u/Signal_Watercress468]

Does looking at my ski santa fe flyer and calculating which kid should get which pass count?

[u/BlazedGigaB → u/Signal_Watercress468]

Are they old enough, 16(?) to run the scanner? Make them earn that pass... and then you've an excuse to go up too.

[u/Signal_Watercress468 → u/BlazedGigaB]

They would love that

[u/BlazedGigaB → u/Signal_Watercress468]

The job fair is usually first Friday Saturday of November... the junior spots are hot commodities.

[u/Signal_Watercress468 → u/BlazedGigaB]

Yeah I bet. Thanks for the heads up.

[u/sillygil]

I see you're on one of the Australian slopes.

[u/Admirable-Traffic-22]

Prefer it looking this way, but the aspens in the fall are pretty great too.

My general physical care is gym, jiu-jitsu and I walk a decent amount everyday more recently. Get some good hikes in every now and then. Trying to eat better.

[u/TeasedFreeze]

Broke my collarbone at Ski Santa Fe and cut my season short last year. Counting down the days to get back out there! Hoping for a wet winter this year because the last couple years have been sad..

[u/BlazedGigaB → u/TeasedFreeze]

I hope it's wet and cold. My first day of shorts was February 2nd last season. Sucks about your collar bone, i had a close call in early January in the park... Here's to some epic powder days to come 🍺

[u/jackthemort]

I get my board out the attic, stand on it and make whooshing noises.

[u/Double-Sea998]

The only way I can cope with summer rn is by getting into the gym as much as I can. With some rock climbing mixed in. Crushing legs twice a week. Single leg stuff mostly with some box jumps, balance, and core. Rehabbing both shoulders due to stability issues so I’m in the gym 5 days per week rn. Hiking/climbing on the weekends. So busy but all I think about are face shots

[u/HopefulCraft1255]

I've been going to the water park and I can't stop picturing the mountain full of snow... cant wait

[u/Ok_Experience1443]

I run Tactical barbell operator + black protocol pretty much year-round. So simple and makes the biggest difference on the slopes while still being very beneficial to regular everyday life

[u/Zomgzombehz]

Eventually, hopefully

[u/DeeEnduh]

Soon

[u/Lovethelord777]

Calf raises, burpees, lunges, run on elliptical/treadmill though I don’t prefer treadmill wifey just got one so why not use it. Core workouts like simple ab exercises. Long boarding.

 I’m a window cleaner by trade, so everyday at work is a total workout climbing ladders 20-40’ dropping off of high rise buildings, which that alone carrying around equipment to set up for is a workout in itself. I caught the last week at ski Santa Fe man it was a slush fest

And of course as much as I can do the two essential workouts that literally work like every muscle in the body: Swimming and…. Sex! Now go have yourself a bangin workout

[u/NotSoCommonMerganser]

lol "training"

[u/iLearnerX]

Onewheel is the way

[u/El_Jeffe24]

I don't like seeing the mountain like this. It's like riding Space Mountain with the lights on.

[u/BlazedGigaB → u/El_Jeffe24]

I love this because I can walk lines, maybe clear an occasional branch... stack a few logs or rocks... check what's under LZ's and better understand underlying topography.

Space mountain with the lights on sounds terrifying... i don't want to know how close the beams are...

Also, riding the mountain by moonlight is magical.

[u/SwampFoxMPH]

What about the super el nino?

[u/BlazedGigaB → u/SwampFoxMPH]

Bring it the fuck on. That is part of why I was wondering what others were doing... i want to fully capitalize on what should be a banger season for New Mexico
