Sunrise opening pass

One of many reasons I ski -- the beautiful sunrise opening pass

Drove by Miniwas last night but did not see any activity. See you on thur

Dry suit? WTF? Our water is still 75

Leave that dry suit home when you head south

I put it on because I'm trying to heal up an open sore on my spray leg before heading south. Don't think its going to work -- will just keep ripping my leg open down there.

 

It is actually a little too warm. Water is a shade under 70 on Minnie.

I have a pussy leg wrap if you need it

@MS -- ya, I can't do that spray leg thing. I ripped a chunk of leg off and didn't cover it for the last couple of weeks and it just keeps getting bigger. Tape doesn't seem to stick, and besides, it just tears off more skin when you peel it off. I'll probably just suffer the pain, oozing and bleeding at SkiWatch.

The spray leg is totally appropriate, I saw a girl wear one in Austin this weekend. (of course it was the baddest female ripper on the planet-Manon)

@MS we were out there last night, ]When it was my turn though I was having trouble seeing the buoys... dang early sunsets! :(

I agree with skidawg. There is absolutely no reason to take pain you don't have to - not to mention increased risk of infection from dirty water. Cover the wound with antiseptic cream and self adhesive tape that sticks to itself not skin, then put a spray leg over it. Focus on skiing not pain. Anybody that gives you crap deserves to be ignored.

@skidawg -- if I were a better skier I could probably pull off that look . . .

I checked out a few of my old ski spots yesterday. The south side of Lake Waconia was glass for about a 2 mile stretch. @Jack_Kinne and me used to tear it up along that area for years until it went big time with wallys.
