Troll of the year award

Congrats. You are the rare exception to the west coast skier rule then!
And you surely know what I'm talking about. Some west coasters that I
talk to have never even sharpened their edges!!

Two years ago, while in the Canyons in Utah, there was a snow drought.
East coast conditions. We were tearing thru the ice, around the rocks,
and the westies were sitting back, and falling all over their tushies.
When I taught in the east when in my 20s, the worst skiers were those from
the west coast. Nothing but moaning about the cold, the ice (even though
conditions were awesome) etc.

I've seen the surf on the north side of Oahu. Not for me. Just like
flying. I prefer the more gentle surf off of the Cocoa Beach pier, or
locally, off of Montauk or the Hamptons.
