  • A Great Spring Break On Big Boards

    2011-03-23 by Joe D

    Today and yesterday at Whitewater was fun because I got to hang out with my dad for Spring Break! But what was the most fun was the two different kinds of skis I got to try. Tuesday I rented some skis from the Whitewater rental shop. Mark and Jason got me some Rossignol 74 Auto Carves. They had a bit of rocker tip and tail. They were better than my other old skis that my dad's friend found in the middle of the forest last summer.

"Much of Whitewater’s tree skiing is fairly steep but the more consistent intermediate pitch of the trees skier’s left of the Glory Ridge chair are a great training area for those with less experience in the trees. Whitewater’s usually best-in-interior-BC lift-served snow conditions and low skier density are also major virtues."
