I'd be interested what young skiers and boarders say to each other these days to see if there's any change in attitude (since I'm turning into an old git these days!) I'm an old skier/boarder. I ski/ride in Tahoe and it's pretty much whatever you want to do. Although, most of the hot young rippers are on skis these days. Once the powder is gone I ski exclusively. That will also change.. |
