New NIXON & MATIX

Morning Coffee with the VAN

I haven't been keeping track of the flatness but I know it's been a while now. I wish I had good news for you about the waves but I really don't. Slight possibility of some sure for Tuesday but I wouldn't call it a sure thing just yet. On the up side of things the mountains are in prime time condition. I've been doing my best to get out regularly and I'm also talking to lots of folks who are doing the same. Everyone is stoked, everyone is getting great snow, and everyone amped on the winter shred. If you haven't made it to the hill yet then you're honestly blowing it. The snow pack is insane and the ticket deals are better then they've been in years. Two for $28 at Gunstock Tuesday night, 2 for 1 Monday/Friday and Temperature Tuesdays at Waterville, and Sunday afternoon deals at Wildcat. We've still got some rocking winter deals at the shop and even some free lift tickets to some of NH's best moutains to hand out with snowboard packages. Swing in and we'll help you get your winter stoke back!!!

If you have a minute to spare there is a new piece on the VAN, titled Haiti, that is truly worth your time. Some times the VAN goes places you 4 wheel drive, but you're going to need your mental 4x4 on for this one. Prepare to be humbled & speechless...
