me too it sounds juicy

Now that I know what his jacket looks like I can't miss him.

Yeah that was probably us.

You should have come over to say hi. I was looking for people but I couldn't remember what color jackets everyone said they would be wearing.

BB was great Sat & Sun! Not crowded at all. The ticket validation thing was not too much of a hassle. I put David in a lesson to work on his toe turns and "Philly" was his instructor. he was so happy. We got to meet Nipples, Ridge and papasteeze. We won't be able to go back up until Christmas break. I'm sure it will be a zoo then.

I think the reason they changed was because of the card being used as a credit card, and so it will be easier to take off. The clips seem like they will hold...it almost seems like it would take something weird to get it to open to the point that it falls off. I got a VIP pass, so I might get a plastic cover for mine, since I have to wear it, and I don't want the magnetic strip to get all scratched up. You are lucky you got the vip pass. we'll see what kind of hassle the poor man's pass is to get validated every day. By the way, mine didn't come with a cover or anything. She handed it to me just as it is like a credit card.

I went to pick up my pass Sat. I had to sign something. I liked how the passes were put on a chain last year. I don't want to lose mine.

Its on their home page jfbb.com

We will definitely be there sat. can't wait!!!

that's good to know. Last season the families that were really nice to talk to were only up there for the weekend. I tried going out of my way to be nice and always talk to the two families I saw there all the time. their kids were around the same age as mine. they were totally snobby and blew us off. I figured it was "clicky" up there. Our house is in Brier crest woods and they are all very clicky. Every time we have gone to a function in the community building (halloween party, christmas party etc) we are like outcasts. Its wierd. I am glad to hear everyone up there is not that way.

I really hope they are open the weekend of Dec 8th, if not we can't get up there again until Christmas week.

That's the thing we are not locals. We have a house up there but live 3 hours away in south jersey.

Thanks Rob. I'm just trying to plan ahead. can;t wait until the season finally starts.

still looking for someone to hang out with my son David. (he's 8). A few people on this forum said they would be at Boulder once in a while. If I can't find someone to hang out with him all the time, he is going to be miserable. He started last year and has done all the runs at boulder. He wants to learn more about the terrain park. We are up there 2 weekends a month. Please pm me if you are interested. thanks

wow we would have made the drive for that! David is pouting today.

If the mountain was opened we would be going. I would love to go but its over a 3 hour drive for us. I am sorry I won't get a chance to meet some of you guys, especially Nipples. David really wants to meet him.

thanks Gurp, much appreciated!!!

My son snowboarded alot with a Big Boulder instructor named Philly last season. Since BB is no longer offering their snowmonster program with the season pass, I am hoping to find someone who wants to snowboard with him. We come up from Jersey 2 weekends a month. My son David is 8 and has boarded all the trails at Big Boulder. He loves the terrain park. I started snowboarding last season also but he is far more advanced than me. He is not looking forward to hanging out with his mom on the mountain especially since I can't seem to make it off the beginner slopes. If anyone knows how I can get in touch with "philly" or knows of someone who might like the job (pay neg) of hanging out with David this season please contact me. We go to the mountain when it opens and he's usually tired out by lunch time. my email is mousetrapgal@hotmail.com. thanks
