Just received a copy of Soul Ride from Slingshot Game Technology Inc. This is a PC snowboard simulation in 3D, which features famous locations including Mammoth, Stratton, Breckenridge, Jay Peak and of course, our favorite Tuckerman Ravine. Sweet! :skicool:

Will post a review shortly.

Check out the Soul Ride (http://www.soulride.com) website for more info.

Yes I agree. When time permits.

Hey according to the Member Survey (http://timefortuckerman.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=1;t=000512) 76% of T4T members ski and 17% snowboard. So should at least have a few riding graemlins... then again 19% park themselves on Lunch Rocks so maybe should have a rock graemlin.

Hey this is off topic! Well back to Soul Rider. I'm trying to ski... er I mean ride down Lionshead... something you can't really do.

I was able to download and play the Jay Peak version of the game for free. The ski engine (SoulRide engine?) is open source on SourceForge! Wow, very kewl.

Note: The game engine is free, the terrain and music and some other stuff is not.
