This is my first season on a snowskate. I got a sweet bi-deck setup from Kevin at December Snowskates decembersnowskates.blogspot.com. Trying to go every weekend. I've been riding at a few of the smaller NY mountains. People have been pretty cool about allowing me to ride even though most people have never seen a snowskate before.

Places I've ridden so far:

Bellayre
Tuxedo Ridge
Thunder Ridge

The toughest mountain so far has been Thunder Ridge. But after talking to a bunch of staff who kept pushing me up the ranks I got to speak to the owner of the mountain and he was totally reasonable and said he'd allow snowskates as long as our leashes weren't too long. I tied a few knots in my predog leash and I was on the snow!

Here's a video I shot with the help of a local snowboarder, Aidan,  I met on the lift. He also rode my board and had a great time.
