OK, its icy nature bodes well if your edges are good and 3500m of vert isn't bad but 248 years between seasons!!

^ interesting experience with less than 10% of the earth's gravity and negligible air resistance. Might get into orbit off a kicker!

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

The transfer bus to the slopes would be a real PITA though.

Does it mean helmets are no longer necessary

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

10% gravity eh?
So an acceleration of 1m/s² would be roughly the same as U get at 4PM on a hot day at the EoSB.

You'll need to Register first of course.

What wax is appropriate for -229°C?

With about a 1 kilobit/sec connection back to Earth logging onto snowHeads would be a bit slow....

You'll get to see more forums and be part of the best ski club on the net.

snowHeads are a friendly bunch.

So with only 10% gravity does that mean nobody will need at skis any more?

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

Virgin should be offering flights soon but I guess they will be too expensive for me & I will have to wait for easyrocket. Ryanrocket's landing site for Pluto will probably be on Neptune.

You know it makes sense.

I think this would actually be one of the rare cases where all Snowheads would be in agreement that a helmet would most DEFINITELY be advisible

Otherwise you'll just go on seeing the one name:

@admin, if a pluto year is 248 years then a season would be about 100 years. So get it right and you could ski all your life.

Admin is a year round ski bum anyway - he doesn't need a 100 year long season
