Just booked my flight to Steamboat, 2/23 to 2/28. They inflated the price by $40 since yesterday so I decided to jump all over it. All comparable flights are more expensive and have 1 stop. I read if they lower the fare I can call United customer support and they'll send me a gift card. @GrilledSteezeSandwich This is tubular!

I'll be a scratch this weekend. Never expected to be on the hill this early so I've got plans and tickets to go to Columbus for the Penn State vs Ohio State game. P.S. I'll be more famous than GSS since I'll be at college game day and he only made the local Palmerton news

if there is not a cover band with that name, i'll be thoroughly disappointed. edit: https://www.bob-jovi.com/

After years of debate, PATCO is reopening the Franklin Square Station in Philly. It was closed in 1979 Current entrance sealed shut with concrete sans the emergency exit hatch:

Woo Hoo!! One big step forward! https://www.cnbc.com/2019/11/20/house-committee-approves-bill-decriminalizing-marijuana-on-the-federal-level.html

Nope. Online sports betting is legal in PA now.

"just kidding, I have a few non-haters like Ridge Racer)." I called you a jackass the other day and you got all emo.

Shady Maple is eating mans paradise. East Star is meh. Kind of what Toast said, buffet. Years ago it was like $5, so it was a quick easy hit.

true, the only acceptable instance i can think of is shady maple.

the malvern mailing address is pretty large, and like you said, when most people think of malvern they think of the area around 29 and 202, or 29 and 30. ive been in that area thousands of times in my life, but think ive actually only been to the borough of Malvern once. the malvern mailing address goes almost all the way to Valley Forge National Park. its just like coatesville. the city of coatesville is pretty small, but the coatesville mailing adress is absolutely huge. alot people outside of the city that fall in that zip code use their township in their address as to not identify with Coatesville

Obviously a ski trip with friends is tough to beat but solo ski trips aren't the worst thing in the world either. Saltman if you hike to the top to ski the bowl (above morningside??) be sure it's not sunbaked first. Looks can be deceiving.

Yeah was gonna say toast knew about this Sunday.

There is one off of Sugartown road in Wayne/Devon that isn’t open 24 either. Right by my old house. Is in a fancy area but got robbed all the time. The McDonalds next door was a front for a drug operation and 3 dudes with AKs busted in there one night. .

Sounds radical.

Thanks for doing your part to ensure thread integrity! This is great! Finally someone who appreciates all the hard work I do around here (just kidding, I have a few non-haters like Ridge Racer). That trip report was pretty good, but the link below is the best trip report on this site. This was the time I met @Ski2Live Live2Ski and we had sugar cookies together and split a hot cocoa: https://www.paskiandride.com/forums/topic/19284-opening-day-trip-report-1222017/ I used to think it was great, since it would be my lunch and dinner during 12 hour sessions at Camelback. There are some seafood options, such as clams and sushi. Basically the same food as every Chinese buffet ever. Right now I'm sick of Chinese food and will have to wait a few months to see if I like it again.

It's ok. Been to better Chinese buffets. Definitely not horrible though.

fun fact: Malvern used to be home to the only Wawa ive ever seen that was not open 24/7

I'd like the 7:30am opening back!

Wacky evening opening lol never this isn’t B.B. I’d like the 8am opening back though..they haven’t announced this weekends operating schedule yet.

@saltyant a question for you.

not trying to derail the chesco / malvern talk but i went back and read the first post in this thread (which was golden btw). is east gourmet buffet really that good? I see it all of the time since that area is basically the closest 'shopping' district to where i'm at. usually everything is shit out there tho so i never gave it a thought.

One of my Friends lives next to The Whip and has a coatesville zip, but mail is addressed to him under “west Marlborough township instead of coatesville.

Can't wait salty, just don't drink too much cider in the parking lot beforehand or you may flex them too much.

Our delivery guy is in Malvern today. Great city.

Oh there is.

Who the fuck is Bob Jovi?

And you got to shake hands with somebody who was on TV.

If they open at 9am around 820am and if they open at 8am around 720am...your buddy JLaw always around 734

I haven't seen the buoy pop for Beltzville, so probably unlikely.

I’m not surprised about any of this right now.

well, i'm glad i got my maybe second set of skis lined up and not my primary set. at least i've already got my outfit ready to go, pretty sweet. what do you guys think.

I successfully transplanted a 7 foot monster that's close to 8 foot now, less than a foot from the garage ceiling. It's Yooooooge and loaded with buddy goodness. Should be ready to harvest in 2 weeks.

friday, february 8 2019 (ever backside 50-50’ed a pool corner?) i awoke to rain, then pouring harder. yada arrived at the valley 11:16 am to no one, Sunshine, alabaster pensylvaniablue, & no cirrus in sight. Sidewinder looked so fun on the way up glorious flattened rollers made for giant speeding arcs springing across flats to landings, landings everywhere top to lazy with the 40deg sun-beat spring on your boots some more speed management was clutch ditching most to carry steamy momentum through the two corners, the first tall as you wanted to go, the second so bowled as to be an old school backside grind on the 10 ft tall pool coping across the 20 ft long bowl deck around the corner, your parabola of centrifugal charc overtaken by the centripetal convexity of the corner~ you can almost feel the trucks grinding: 0 g hanging sideways until you lose lift, rock back in with a TALL smoothish run-out straight into the chopped up corner with a drop gap to another bump landing groomer line, down but 2 turns to the 3-part future of the day. first, in cement-mixer no-mans land a divine box of transitions left was 3-8 ft mini ramp take-off, long 10 ft wide top fading out 30ft landing or right across the flat with 2 horizon lines. 4 ft and 8 ft down.. homies going big everywhich way, longheads floating longer.. but this was but the slow you down fun distraction on the way to the longest, tallest in-run-roller so far. The days speed at noon wasn’t giving me a roll, so i charged the knuckle- grinding past the 5 ft lip across the 14-16 flat; 0 g to dropfeel the landing.. sweeet long landing humming right into a longer-taller feeling 7 ft tall lip 24 ft table to the sweet again fairly robust 25 ft tall wide-load landing. yes, this was going to be a very fun afternoon. take the roll with a skate or two into the first, woop extra lippy straight to the moon, where did that come from? setting you right back in the steep, if a bit long at unity.. charge you need all that speed~ the second has a fuller tranny, a bit effortless really, and so much time, to hang out, in the past, but the future is always right on time best be ready to pounce silent landing if you did it right. wet, lather, rinse, repeat nice job park crew ooh & that tree gap on burma is ripening everything else was fine, toured then Sidewinder for hours (ROTD.) razors had the measles, positively teaming with germs. nightmare was wicked fun, seems the boardercross has melted into a fatty pumptrack. good for some doubles anyway; some fun banked turns to air. Switchback was the empty ultimate louge run. collected so many g’s that run my thighs were steaming by main st. challenge was too busy, and too piley for optimum cruising fun. pumps & hoses was looking ripe except the measles.. pre-lazy glade reminded me of a l o n g blackcomb snaking skatebowl. smooth & cruisy snow was butter melty chord to 3” deep spring anywhere you left rails. get it kids, tick tock

It would be nice to have other people to go with. Is that for real or are you just being fucking stupid like usual?

I like cheese.

Ok

Wow @saltyant, just wow.

Except there isn’t gonna be any skiing on thanksgiving

We have the same measurements. I think 170 length RTMs would work great!
