ERIC POLLARD – “I can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen kids all over the world tearing it up on skis that are not wide enough or too long. The Line Sir Francis Shorty skis are completely legit! It’s got all the same technology of the ski I ride – Early Rise™ & Early Taper™, Macroblock™ wood core, great flex pattern, but this one is sized to fit you and at a price you’re parent’s can’t say no to. The future of our sport is going to be riding this ski.”

first snow in Tahoe

Picture taken 7:30am October 3rd 2009

This is a very good sign that Tahoe will be getting an early start on winter. Last night we received 4 inches of snow, not the wet sloppy stuff, it was cold. It is now a race to see who will open first. These are the three best bets Kirkwood, Heavenly or Boreal ridge. Heavenly has the most Snow making equipment, Boreal has the a lot of snow making equipment too, and a very high evelation, and Kirkwood has some snow making and always the best weather pattern for natural snow fall. This year I’m feeling Boreal, they are known to open up for a quick weekend, even if they end up closing for a few weeks till more snow comes. Boreal also loves to throw Halloween Parties, so get you costume ready, wax you stuff, because it looks like a zombie winter!

Its that time of year when we wait for snow, waiting, thinking, planning for our next day on the hill. The staff at Shoreline of Tahoe have a strange fear during these waiting periods. The fear is that I may launch some new crazy gadget in hopes of being the first kid on the block to sell one. As much as I want my own roller suit, I’ll be a good boy and simply wait for the snow. Pray for snow or tell me what size roller suit you wear?

So your all excited to ski or ride some fresh powder, you check your favorite ski resorts web site to find them explaining that their conditions our “packed powder” ? say what? yea its that mystery marketing snow conditions known as packed power….this could mean anything from 10 inches of tracked out soft stuff to boiler plate ice. So what do you do? simple, buy yourself some NAS skis from Mervin manufacturing they will carve though any thing those misleading marketing executives come up with to get you on the hill. OH yea one other thing, 4 feet of fresh powder translates to about 40 inches of real snow…take about 2 inches off per foot then your reality will match the marketing departments hipe.
