I'll be there with Craig and should have three friends there as well.
See you in the changing area around 6:30pm to 6:45pm ish.

Good to see you guys tonight, Steve and Ken. Both looking cool on the boards

. . . even at your age Ken

I was quite enjoying that wee bump in the middle of the slope that Steve pointed out. Felt like I was getting a couple of feet off the ground when jumping off it . . . was probably only about 6 inches though!

Do need to practice my 360s and skiing backwards though . . . was failing miserably at that tonight. I find the snow gets quite clumpy in Xscape so was struggling with the spinning round for 360s *

* - In other words, that's my excuse for the time I fell on my ass!

Thanks I think Derek

Did see you jump that bump when I was on the toe lift up the hill looked good

Great to catch up with you and Stevie - we must go again sometime

Yup, good night had and good to see everyone

Although i think i need to perfect my technique of putting my binding on while going up the tow lift.... It think the button crunched something sensitive at one point

Anyone up for the freestyle session when they've got big jumps up? Not tried it yet but i quite fancy a shot!

I'd really like to try the freestyle stuff, but I (a) need some freestyle skis and (b) need some tuition!! They make it look so easy but I'm sure it's really bloody difficult. Would also need to invest in a helmet!

Still up for trying it though, so let me know when it's on!
