kendrat "Sexy Mrs. Tooscoops" Posts : 3072 OFFLINE	Posted on Jan 05, 2009 i moved away from mountains... it makes me sad. especially when i watch snowboard movies... i miss real mountains. on the other hand, i still have snow. so that is a plus. me, i save up to go to whistler every april for telusfest. and cry myself to sleep at night in the meantime.

tooscoops "Funny, but.. FIRED!" Posts : 4957 ONLINE	Posted on Jan 06, 2009 she keeps me awake when she does that... sometimes you just gotta do it. use it as a plus to improve your urban riding or something. i'm sure since kendra has been out east here she has improved her 'park' abilities... try to find some advantage to where you live. its all what you make it.

UTsnow Posts : 278 ONLINE	Posted on Jan 11, 2009 I won't move away from mountains unless I make enough dough to fly every other weekend during the winter.

NinjaOG Posts : 480 ONLINE	Posted on Jan 24, 2009 I'm planning on moving to hollywood but I'll still be able to make trips to bear and mammoth so it won't be so bad.

needU4speed Posts : 69 ONLINE	Posted on Jan 27, 2009 The good ol' Military put me in Kansas which isn't much better than GA. I guess i am a bit closer to mountians but still. It's about a 9 hour trip which we are doing tonight up to Keystone....

shred35 "Scandalous Addicted Sexyman" Posts : 7279 ONLINE	Posted on Mar 12, 2009 I moved away from the mtns, after the NZ season ended, & moved back up to Auckland (NZ), & every day I regret my decision. There were a few factors as to why I had to move, but now I'm looking at moving back down to the area, but to a town that has a lot more infrastructure (Taupo), than where I was living (National Park Village). If you can combine lifestyle, & a great job (or career), in or around a mtn resort, or town, then do it!

Dante2cubit Posts : 3100 ONLINE	Posted on Mar 15, 2009 Well, living in th UK its worse as the closest mountains are in Scotland and im in the south of England, so its a 12 hour drive which is just as expensive as a flight to Europe for a snow hit, and only just affordable a couple of times a season or for two weeks. Im now looking at doing a season in the Alpes for next winter so I can get some good riding in at least one year in my lifetime, and hopefully improve my riding a lot. in the meantimeI have had to find other activities such as mountain biking, Wakeboarding and Football (soccer) to keep me occcupied, though recently I keep bloody injuring myself when doing them so have held back on them so I dont mess up my chances of being fit and injury free for my snowtime.

snurfer Posts : 375 ONLINE	Posted on Mar 16, 2009 Posted by Riddlin Yeah i know it's a sin. but i had to move to Savannah, GA. And there is no snow ANY WHERE! it's barely even cold. so what am i going to do? i've got enough $$$ to take one trip and i'm thinking of going back to the NW. what do yall do when you're in my shoes/ Savannah?...you've got a couple of pretty damn good surf spots within 30 minutes drive. A lot of people would kill to live that close to decent warm water surf. I used to live in Charelston, SC and know it gets good and offshore in that area more than people think. Yeah, the water is really cold for a couple of months in winter, but air temps stay relatively mild. Summer water is tropical warm and hurricane and tropical storm swells are primo and plentiful

shred35 "Scandalous Addicted Sexyman" Posts : 7279 ONLINE	Posted on May 06, 2009 Hopefully I'm back to within 50 mins drive, to the mtns, before I start instructing on weekends, again; I've over living in Auckland. It surely isn't my kind of lifestyle, anymore...!

SteveDUH "Gay for Rainbows" Posts : 1570 ONLINE	Posted on May 07, 2009 when i moved away from the snow, i went travelling so i could keep my mind off it and i started djing... after the olympics, i might try going back to Whistler once prices go back to just expensive and not REALLY expensive. i havent gone riding since december 2007... its rough... i miss it... but im keeping my mind occupied with other things.

tortyv Posts : 8 ONLINE	Posted on May 22, 2009 I just moved Gothenburg (Sweden) after doing a whole season (well THREE seasons) in Bad Gastein in the Austrian Alps. And right now it's killing me.. Miss it all like hell and it doesn't seem to be any easier than when I first left, I guess they say time's a healer.. I guess I should be happy I managed to do three seasons in my life so far hey? still doesn't forget the fact that I wanna go back everyday! I just tried taking up skateboad and I tell you that is seriously hard, nothing like snowboarding and the falls are always so much worse...
	we've been working hard trying to save all our money, when we get there it better be glistening snow and sunny, all I know for sure is that, I'm on my way.. I'm heading for the mountains..oh oh
