Cypress 2016/17
Miserable rainy day at Cypress with marginal soft pack - sticky at times. Fun sharing 1.5 hrs of misery with Roxstock/Mark, LeopardSkin/Tony, Clay, Doug, Bob, Bandito/Benito and 8mdude.

I put a garbage bag on, works great lol thinking to make pants too lol use fleece n wool underwares, 2 thermos of tea, a nice long brake , and hot waxed the board for afternoon session, it does help ALOT!! Cant wait to try my new board tomorrow. don't follow me, you may die!

Nice hard pack groomers down Colins. Flat light. Should have brought my skis instead of snowboard.
