I definitely thought this was two gifs at first and watched the bottom half for longer than I care to admit waiting for something to happen.

Damn it! I've been doing that the last few days and no one filmed me

Can confirm Seattle is like this today
Hexeron
I used to do that with friends. My neighborhood is near a river and there was some good slopes in a few places. We would build a table top1/
jump and some rails to slide at the base and practice after school. All that in a major city. Man we had fun.
fuckewe
Edmonds, WA here. Can confirm. Schools will most likely be delayed/closed all week!
mindolluin
maybe that's how he gets to work!

Eastern Washington is currently boned too. Plows can't operate; road closures. Can't stop, won't stop! Snowmageddon!

wtf is legit snowboarding?
parismaker
Well, he can't snowboard IN your house, due to lack of snow and hills...
mondomar
1+ for not crashing in to the street like some other people I have seen today in Seattle.
majaimay
Goddamn western washington people. The second it snows 3 inches its a "snowpocalypse" meanwhile in easterm washington its an actual blizzard
officiallypepesvia31415
Seattle is a a lot of big hills though
rhetoricIjustmether
Did you just move there? We do this every where here in CO when we actually get some snow.
AmyBethMegJo
Seattle almost reached its yearly amount of snowfall in a day.

I watched someone snowboarding down my street. They had a rope around their waist attached till the car driving in front of them ?

someone descending a hill is one of the few legitimate uses of vertical video

As a Canadian, I don't get why this is interesting.

Ever notice some of the best sledding hills end in streets, fences or bodies of water? The real excitement is in the stopping.
VikingRuger
I have a board that I just go over roads with.

Alright Griswold.

Queen anne hill. Do it.

stopping is easy, but painful. The fence at Reformatory Hill.

How close can you get!!
I once rolled off a sled right before the edge of a creek only to see my sled bounce off the Ice 10 feet below. Good Times.
DeflatedFootballsCantMeltBradysDreams
I always prefer going up a ski lift and going off the other side. I carry snow shoes with me but off piece is 10x better than on

Get some avalanche training, a beacon, probe, and shovel. Once you leave the resort you are no longer in avy managed terrain.
Remmon1
In addition to these, consider an avalanche airbag which will greatly increase your chances of survival

I think I know the guy who’s snowboarding. lol

This is the day he has been waiting for... beats lift lines...

Seattle drivers can barely drive in the rain without killing everyone, so just imagine what a few inches of snow does
Most Seattle driver are actually California drivers, thanks to amazon and a poor transit system
VanillaMowgli
Seattle folks drove like shit before the tech industry population boom. The tech migrants made it worse, but it was still pretty bad.
I guess I’m talking more about bad traffic vs bad driving
lysani
Seattle, and most of western WA in general, is both bad traffic and bad drivers.
Oh, you may be right about that. I was a kid, don't remember sitting in traffic that much, but don't remember Vietnam or Nixon, either.
I just remember even a few years ago being able to drive from Olympia to Seattle and having at max it take an hour and twenty minutes
imshibagel
There's a severe disconnect between the amount of shock in me and op right now. Why the hell wouldnt he board? Am I missing context?
PhailRaptor
It's the fact that Seattle rarely gets any significant snowfall at all, and now there's enough to snowboard on
Bananamilkcereal
Same thing is happening all over the Puget Sound today. Checking in from Tacoma.
RyukTheRed
GHC here! We got snow, too!

Don't you understand? I . LIVE . ON . HILL ! Olympia has cars and bodies strewn everywhere.

I mean it IS February. Did people forget that February is still winter?
Elephanthead
If you were in boston the last few days, probably.
The strange thing about the Pacific North West is that winter doesn't come until February

From an awesome North Face commercial. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TbNRepXleqc
That really was awesome! Inspired by tons and tons of kids’ imaginations while on a road trip.I imagined that but on a bike instead.Awesome!
Totally. It's one of those things that everyone did on their own and never realized every other kid did it too. So funny that way.
The North Face commercial that this is from is SO awesome. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TbNRepXleqc

Thank you. That was awesome.
My pleasure. Have an upvote while we're at it.

I’d like to thank you, but the video is unavailable.
Isleros
Often the video is not allowed to play where it’s imbedded. If you tap the title instead of play, it’ll usually take you where you can play
Weird, it's working for me still. Just do a video search of "North Face street skiing commercial" and you should find it.
