Administrators Horton Posted March 3, 2019 Administrators Share Posted March 3, 2019 I just had the best ski ride of the year. Ok it is only March and I better be skiing a lot better on April 1st but it fired me up.

Baller ToddA Posted March 3, 2019 Baller Share Posted March 3, 2019 We skied today in the north, (north of Seattle that is...) Water 33*, Air 43* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Horton Posted March 3, 2019 Author Administrators Share Posted March 3, 2019 @ToddA that sounds terrible. My air was 70ish and water was 60ish. That is what we call winter down here.

Baller ToddA Posted March 3, 2019 Baller Share Posted March 3, 2019 @Horton yeah, I only could stand 3 "passes" free skiing. Feet just were too cold. @scotchipman just going off the dock thermometer...reads 33*. Given the fact that the last 4-5 weeks our night time temps have been 24-27*F, and day time temps have been low to mid 40's, and the lake was frozen over for about two weeks up until 6 days ago, hard to argue that 33* reading.

Baller bishop8950 Posted March 3, 2019 Baller Share Posted March 3, 2019 My season started today, March 2. NorCal: 60 air and high 50 water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Horton Posted March 3, 2019 Author Administrators Share Posted March 3, 2019 @bishop8950 Come south. The new ProStar is unreal and the water is glass.

Baller ALPJr Posted March 3, 2019 Baller Share Posted March 3, 2019 In southern New England... 6" of snow yesterday. 8 to 10" more tonight. Temps single digits to low 30's rest of the week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller OldGuysRule Posted March 3, 2019 Baller Share Posted March 3, 2019 May have to wait for more opportune date in March. Weather forecast for Indiana is snow today followed by single digit temps for a few days. I did get a ski ride in on "fat boy" on Wednesday, February 27th. Had to dodge a few sheets of thin ice drifting around the lake! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller_ Rednucleus Posted March 23, 2019 Baller_ Share Posted March 23, 2019 What a difference 2 weeks of warmer weather make! Warm hands, warm feet, skied two sets this morning.

Baller_ MISkier Posted March 23, 2019 Baller_ Share Posted March 23, 2019 First ski today. Air 42. I'm guessing the water was upper 30s. Still ice floating in it. The worst slalom equipment I own is between my ears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller bigskieridaho Posted March 23, 2019 Baller Share Posted March 23, 2019 Just got my boat out for the first time today but didn’t have a driver to pull me. Boat ran great. Water was 57 and air is 60. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller KRoundy Posted March 24, 2019 Baller Share Posted March 24, 2019 I've been three times already, all free skiing. First two days was some pretty choppy water but today was awesome. Photo of day 1 below. This was on March 17th. Water was 44, but the air was about 70. It's cooled down since then, but summer is on the way!!!

Baller powbmps Posted March 27, 2019 Baller Share Posted March 27, 2019 Visiting my oldest daughter in Italy was a good excuse to stop by Jolly Ski and make some early season turns (ice in NH is still pretty thick). Very nice of them to put up with a total hack like myself. Great coaches and facility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller_ RichardDoane Posted March 28, 2019 Baller_ Share Posted March 28, 2019 skied for the third time yesterday, so 4 sets total so far for March, finally shortening and running the green loop again, and just like @horton there were times I'm glad no one was watching, next week it's on to that blue loop as always, it was a beautiful day at the lake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
