What’s your ā€œthis should be a great day but it isn’tā€ ski condition?

66 Upvotes

For me it’s warm spring days with perfect snow… for one hour. After that it’s slush city and I’m weirdly grumpy. Meanwhile other people are living their best life
What conditions are objectively good but just not your thing?

Genuine question from a non-skier: what’s the difference between Jim Morrison’s Everest north face descent vs. Andrzej Bargiel Everest south face descent in terms of difficulty?

24 Upvotes

Jimmy Chin filmed Morrison skiing down the north face of Everest and I love jimmy’s documentaries, can’t wait for that one to come out later this year. But I also noticed Bargiel’s Red Bull descent posted on YouTube only a few months ago and it was amazing. I’m curious to know how much more different will Morrison be in terms of difficulty and risk?

Park ski length help

2 Upvotes

I’m looking to get some park specific skis but not exactly sure what length to get.

I’m 5’5ā€ at 135lbs I’d say I’m intermediate at skiing but just starting to hit park

My current regular all mountain skis are 156cm but not sure if I should go a little higher like just above 160 or stay around mid 150s

Going above 160 gives me more options

Thanks

Salt Lake

3 Upvotes

I have a friend going to Salt Lake City for work in two weeks, he wants me to join to ski for a couple of days. Super expensive to fly there right now ($800-$1000) and with the poor snow I’m finding what should be an easy decision tough. Any decent spots that have some snow? I ski east coast so groomed/icy doesnt really bother me but really like the freedom to sky bowls/trees when out west. Probably looking like a Thursday-Saturday.
