StepD is super-stoked. She has known her rep placement for the season was in Canada, but only found out last week that she will be in Banff and covering Lake Louise & Sunshine, with ski away days to Kicking Horse & Panorama. She hasn't stopped running on the ceiling since.
My wife and I also quite excited to go and visit her.

@Dave of the Marmottes, It's €488 if you buy in October (cheapskate month, really), but unfortunately you need a residency certificate to get one

Dunno, heard a rumour that spyderjon might require some interim QC testing to enable retention of brew making certification.

It was a bit of a... errr... miss one season to secure future finances to allow my lavish skiing habits to continue for the foreseeable kind of decision.
I am pretty disappointed about it though. I'd probably say "bummed out" if I was a snowboarder.

Everyone else is using age-inappropriate words so you'd probably be alright with that

@midgetbiker, sounds fair. When we moved, we decided that we could reset because no one really knows how old we are. I’ve gone for 29.

Stoked level is building gradually in sunny London today.
Zermatt week trip booked for mid December - watching the webcams everyday to welcome the first dump of snow for the season...none yet falling but hopefully the opening of the new ski lift to the Klein Matterhorn will tempt something to fall from the sky.
Stoke then reached new levels with another week booked in Val T in Jan....
Bring on the snow!

@Dave of the Marmottes, it was the Nordica Santa Anas that came with that. The Superguides don’t have it as standard

Pre-season Stoke has increased a notch as we've just found a chalet for the main Feb holiday.
Pre this week, Stoke was running at a reasonable level as I need to go shopping for gear and my new watch arrived which tracks skiing properly rather than having to force a 3rd party app onto my old garmin.

| Good grief, Guys: its still September.........Agree with Hurtle and rob@rar: no stoking until at least end of November..........[/url]) |
Do agree as still doing other stuff such as kiting and riding, so lots to concentrate on, and then back out to the Mountains next week to make the most of the Autumn.
However as I'm off to Siberia November 16th I should be starting to get excited big time about that trip but the way the feckin Visa application is going, (tour op supplied wrong date on first letter) so three trips to London, £370 (two visas) and one (hopefully last one) trip up to London to collect it has somewhat taken the gloss off this trip

I'm stoked that I have changed my name to celebrate my 200th post.
No more mr boring real name - please welcome my alter ego HotDogger!
It'll also be my first experience of a BB next year so extra stokie stokingness for that too.
Woof!

Yes getting Stoked, going for 2weeks over Christmas/New Year with various members of family joining for a belated 50th celebration.
Already kinda regretting booking so early in the season, but with people only needing 3days annual leave couldn’t help but picking those dates.
I have already starting checking daily the weather thread.
also need to stick to my diet better and up my spinning class
So definitely getting stoked

Stoked is a word for fires. Anyone who uses the word in any.other sense is a baggy trousered, drug taking, non skiing, long haired, piste contesting type who should stick to their skateboards

Looks like Christmas has come early for some.
Bah, humbug eh?
Must dash. Got to pull up my baggy trousers before I wash my long hair and start my drug induced hallucinating, while staring lovingly at my skateboard!

Just about to fly over the Alps. I'll give a snow report from 38000 feet. If there's lots of white stuff I might get stoked enough to buy some baggy trousers and grow my hair
