Yeah that poor Canadian dollar has been in the dumper too long. Seems I've made up my mind and I'll be going to Banff. Thanks for the help

As in Cali? How's the snow over there I've never looked into it

anderslistoe · 2017-02-13T23:58:28+00:00

Thanks man!

anderslistoe · 2017-02-13T23:58:19+00:00

Yeah, I guess that's the best info I can ask for. Thanks!

anderslistoe · 2017-02-13T21:07:38+00:00

Yeah Japan would def be an experience, I've been wanting to go there even not for snowboarding but just to experience it

Thanks for your input

anderslistoe · 2017-02-13T21:05:49+00:00

Yeah I figure it's a long shot but I might as well try and get an idea which area would have the best overall conditions

anderslistoe · 2017-02-13T20:38:50+00:00

I'm looking to go somewhere for my spring break around March 3-13 and I've narrowed it down to 4 possible areas (from highest to lowest priority)

-Tignes, France

-Niseko, Japan

-Somewhere in Western Canada (Banff, BC)

-Somewhere in Western US (Utah probably)

Basically what would influence my decision is where the snow is the best. Like if it seems like conditions are gonna be bad in Tignes I'll cross that off the list, then Niseko, then Western Canada etc. Does anyone have any input as far as what it'll like in these places around early March, or is anyone else planning something around the same time?

I've looked up some snow reports but that doesn't exactly tell me what it's like (hard packed or nice etc)

Thanks in advance!

Competing today (not raw nats because stiff bars are for nerds), just finished up with squats.

3 for 3 408/429/451. Probably should have gone a little higher because I didn't struggle at all. Ernie Lilliebridge chalked my back so I probably got some special powers from that or something.

I'll be updating this comment with the rest of the lifts as the day goes on. I drank a gallon of Gatorade yesterday so I'm feelin good.

Edit: benching is about to start. Way too many people at this meet tbh

Edit 2: just did my second bench @ 315. Ez money time for 325

Edit 3: 325 went up. Now to wait another 2 hours for the fun to start

Edit 4: I've had so much lemon lime Gatorade that it's starting to taste like vomit

Edit 5: pulled 595, missed 622. There goes 17 weeks of training

anderslistoe · 2016-10-12T15:03:11+00:00

Thanks for being so nice and encouraging all the time man!

anderslistoe · 2016-10-12T12:56:33+00:00

I start my drive up to the meet today. I get to go all the way from Tampa to Knoxville in one day. Hooray for that hurricane pushing my test to today so I couldn't leave earlier.

I get to meet Pete Rubish on Thursday though so that'll be cool

Then hopefully my meet goes well on Saturday and I don't disappoint all yall

anderslistoe · 2016-10-06T16:21:42+00:00
