Any snowboarders here?

MR.EM1 is right if you only planning to snowboard on the east coast...save you money.

i disagree, Mt. Tremblant, Canada is definitely one of my top choices to ride. Snowshoe WV isn't bad either, i have a timeshare there in the village - doesn't seem like a waste of money to me!

I also take the time to fly out to The Canyons and Park City in Utah once a season - while excellent spots on the west coast are a dime a dozen... there are a few places on the East Coast that are killer as well.

...you just have to drive/fly a ways, can't be a wimp - drive four hours, and expect great snow. That just doesn't happen... WV is the lowest i go on the East Coast to board... I plan on exploring Vermont next year.

Other than vermont, the east coast for snowboarding sucks. The only decent Snowpark in WV is winterplace....

I highly suggest going to Vermont. Stay after from the slush in north carolina.

east coast boarding does NOT suck, it's just a little different. No, you don't have insane amounts of snow that you can get lost in... But if you're okay with not having miles and miles of halfpipes and flattops, then you're good to go.

Everyone hates on the east coast for some reason... i've noticed it's usually it's folks who've gone out to Rockies once or twice and are caught up in the buzz. lol

winterplace? lol

Mr.EM1, why didn't you and Dustin ride out with me this winter to WV/or out west? I had room in the plane bro.

Winterplace is a ski resort in WV...

But other than vermont, east coast sucks for anyone who is above an intermediate skill level.

The east coast is great for beginners though.
