I see there isn't, or if any at all.
But I have noticed some of you head out west for a weekend.
So, if you do happen to be going to Sunshine Village, or Lake Louise. I would love to meet up, and check out more boards and such. (If it fits my schedule, and the weathers nice lol, no colder than -20 C)
:-> Thanks!

This is the first time in 6 seasons we will not be out at Banff for the Christmas Break. Going to Vancouver instead to visit family. I may try and get out to Banff later in the season.
BTW: I usually see about 6 riders on skiboards in Banff.

You wouldn't be bringing skiboards to hit any of the local Vancouver slopes, would you?

I seen a few people riding snowblades, but not skiboards yet.
Don't worry, during Christmas is when I head to Saskatchewan.
Like I said, no worries, but if you do head out this way would love to know! lol

You bet. Cypress, Mt Seymour, and Grouse are on the list for December 26th to 29th. Not sure at this point which resort on each day. Which do you recommend? I will PM you contact info and maybe we can meet up.
I am resisting Whistler, but if they get more snow, my son (snowboarder) and I plan on leaving the wife behind for a day trip.

Will do.
BTW: Sunshine always seemed to have more skiboarders than LL.

hahahaha why didn't I figure this out before, it seems a friend of mine bought skiboards 2 years ago (The same one who taught me and introduced me to snowblades).
She bought the Revolts.
So, one has been found at Sunshine!, well make it 2. As her brother in law also skiboards now and again too.
I saw others on skiboards occasionally when I was out there last year. I liked sunshine over LL as well. It felt bigger. The ski-out from the top of the great divide lift to the parking lot was great for an ontario skier like me. It's rare to be able to spend 25 min straight skiing.

What I like most about it is the variety of doing Mountain, or hill like trails, and I feel the snow is better at Sunshine than Lake Louise. But that's just my opinion.

I will probably be down in the Sunshine / LL area in January, and possibly into BC in February. We usually hit up Marmot though for our weekend and day trips, since it's closer to Edmonton and not nearly as busy.
I have never seen anyone out on R8 skiboards (except me, of course). I have seen a bunch on the the Head 94s, and the occasional Solomon Snowblades, but that's all. I'm riding Revolt Bullseyes, so if you see me, feel free to say hello. :)
