spider talk not going away.
don't do like I did, today. plan ahead and save ten bucks on the lift ticket. holy shit.
conditions today were pretty good. Recluse was kinda blown out, as were the rock gardens on the blacks. it was nice to finally have Stinger open for one of my trips, but they waited til 10am, since it's on the shady side of the hill and there was some mist/fog in the early morning. so I had 9 runs in by that time and was getting tired. so I deliberately swerved and took the bitchline on the lower (bigger) rock garden, out of fatigue.
I have to say, top to bottom, I think I like Viper's the best of the blues. Tarantula and Venom about the same, then Antidote. I still just plain suck at Recluse. Viper's wears you out, though. you can't just cruise and pump the jumps. you're working hard, the whole time.
light conditions in the afternoon were crap for video. have to listen to understand what's happening on the trail.
I kinda wanted to check out Centipede, the new trail that's not even on the map, but it turns out it's a green, and there was a shitload of rookies out there, today.
