3-4 inches of snow would be so fun to slide around in on an ATB :)

EDIT: We don't have an snow here (yet; some is supposed to come over night and tomorrow), but my property ~2.5 hours north of here has like 5 inches. It's not very kiteable, but I'm sure I could find some empty fields in the area.

yeah last year we got about 3 inch, and that was more than enough for a super fun kite-skii session.

check out my youtube channel.

Glad to say ive been able to get some really good Ice-sessions in today so far.

winds about 14 knots from the NW.

am able shoot up wind like a rocket, ice is really fun on parabolic skis:smilegrin:

am running 12 meter lines on my 5 meter sprint.

it snowed a little last night, thank god for the ice LOL
theres about 1/2 inch of ice one everything, and is supposed to stick around for a bit:yes:
