I first went at 29 or 30 years old after being a lifelong hockey player. I knew it was going to happen pretty quickly, but it took about 5 minutes before I tried to cross over after a stop. I see all the teens on the hill and I'm trying to go full on Scott Stevens, open ice style lol. Too bad they're all faster and better than me.

Having an ice skating background def helped a ton with picking it up. I don't know how fast beginners typically go, but I think my life flashed before my eyes a couple times 😂😂 I just dug the edges in and kept flying. I'm sad I didn't pick this sport up earlier in life. Started downhill very early 20's. Had done cross country for a few years & skated forever. Once the kid finally twigged onto going faster allows you to maneuver, it got a lot more fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today it may be close to 60 degrees. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should know that they pull in closer to the body as a defense mechanism for the cold. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SABRES 0311 Posted January 3 Report Share Posted January 3 We got some snow in northern Nevada the last two days. Did some sledding in the backyard last night with the kids. I found out you can still hit rocks when you don’t see them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ubkev Posted January 6 Popular Post Report Share Posted January 6 My hot water heater blew last night while I was at work. Why isn't this in the complaint thread? Because my neighbor came over today, went with me to the hardware store, helped me pick out a new one, let me use his military discount, threw it on his truck, brought it down and installed it for me over about 2 and a half hours tonight. I could have never done this job on my own. I simply don't have the know how. But I do now! If I'd have had the plumber come out to do this job it would have cost me 2 grand. This cost me $600 for the new tank. I tried to pay my neighbor $300 for helping me out and he flat out refused. Some people are just awesome. Now I'm getting him and his wife a gift card to a pretty nice restaurant in town and I'm not letting him refuse me this time. Good people are just plain awesome. 2 1 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wyldnwoody44 Posted January 7 Report Share Posted January 7 Our team had 2 live saving moments over the last 2 shifts... This job beats you down and a lot of people are entitled pricks. But those days when you make a difference really do keep you going. 4 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
