Bed. Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 I just got back 2 days ago from a Lake Tahoe boarding trip. The weather was really good, in the 60s and had me in a Tshirt. It looked like they hadnt gotten any snow for at least a week, so there wasnt really much powder. Bummer too considering thats why I took the trip - powder boarding. Either way I ended up having an anwsome time Bump for snowboarding Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vharkano Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 Looking at going out for the first time when its the season here then me and a mate are looking at hitting up Canada to get some resort work or whatever in the mountains for next years season. Ive never even seen snow before. I predict myself injuring myself somehow off small jumps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bdee652 Posted March 31, 2010 Share Posted March 31, 2010 rode rome boots this season..they packed out mad...goin' back to 32's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DISTRACT Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 32s are the worst and most notorious snowboard boot to pack out. Almost everyone I know with them this season has destroyed them. I have to wear 2 pairs of socks+broken about 4 lace rings. Other than the extremely fast wear and tear on them, they're my favourite boot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tavaruawon Posted April 7, 2010 Share Posted April 7, 2010 Just got back from a late season session up at Kirkwood... We went back country with a buddies snow-cat off of HWY 88 on Monday and hit up Kirkwood all day Tuesday. Definitely some of the best late season snow I have ever seen. That storm us Cali heads had over the weekend DUMPED. A fresh three feet of fluff and great weather. JESUS FUCKING CHRIST AM I SUNBURNT THOUGH. Banana boat needs to make an SPF - IRISH PEOPLE.

KINGSHITOFFUCKMOUNTAIN Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 damn where the fuck are you riding? colorado's passes werent even nearly that expensive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercer Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 Colorado passes are mad cheap compared to the "bigger" resorts back east. Supply and demand. I used to get the 3 mountain Keystone, A Basin, and Breck, no blackout with 10 passes to Vail and Bever Creek for around $350. Back here this shit is ridiculously expensive for a shitty ice mountain where you spend more time in a lift line on weekends than you do actually riding. In Colorado I never once waited more than 30 seconds to get on a lift. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KINGSHITOFFUCKMOUNTAIN Posted September 18, 2010 Share Posted September 18, 2010 so east coast resorts are more expensive? bummer man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KILZ FILLZ Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 west resorts are expensive IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercer Posted September 19, 2010 Share Posted September 19, 2010 It all depends on how close the resort is to a populated area, pretty much makes the entire east coast expensive and places in CA higher also. In Colorado, Utah, Montana, and Wyoming there are very few people 1 days drive away compared to the amount of resorts. Basically the season tickets are sold to raise money to open the resort, the resorts main profits come from people who buy the single lift tickets. I remember a few people saying it takes till the end of December until the resorts actually make back as much money as the operational costs. Considering they're usually open by October in the west that's a lot of catching up, those early season passes help a lot. Back here on the East Coast they start churning profits earlier relatively speaking during the Christmas/New Years vacation break then for the rest of the season. They need more snow making money and more employees here, but get much more customers on their tiny Ice Hills. So season passes aren't as big of a priority to curb paying interest on borrowed start up money and they charge more. Plus more people here want to buy them because they have more locals relatively speaking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
