Papasteeze

everything melted during a freak heat wave this morning - winter has been cancelled.

Pics... please. Put all the jibs up you can, since it is policy to have 100% coverage at BC, then have the park 100% too!

Apparently. uhhh.. at some point close to never. BB, BC, CB this year

we will be there sat and sun maybe friday night too.

the truth hurts huh?

Just like last year. They don't care about the true snow lovers. It is becoming more and more obvious. Stupid me gave that Berry guy the benefit of the doubt.

wish we could be there.. hit em up for us - see ya'll this weekend.

Sorry, I was quoting shadows.

It would be funnier if it was a picture of IONLYSKIATBLUECAUSEIAMTOOCHEAP picture of MCSki. It's funny to watch the progression of this board. They went quickly from moderation to selective censorship.

Things were supposed to change with the new owner. I guess not. I believe that they will not open until they have the on the snow ITC thing our of the way.

shadows, I thought you had a pass to Blue?

yesssssss.. pa represent!

The same thinking probably applies especially if you are a coach, everyone looks to see what an instructor or patroller is riding on. If they have something, it must be good?

ahahaha - I warned those guys when they were gloating over the early season snow that to the best of my memory that when winter snow comes early like it did the rest of the season will suck. I hope I am wrong.

Ok... If you are wanting to ask businesses to sponsor you. You should think in terms of why they should put thier products on you. What is in it for them? It isn't always about the skills. Lots of snow resort personel get gear tossed at them at no or little charge. Are they sponsored? I would think that if you are asking for gear to be tossed to you, you should at a minimum explain why they should do that. It is a misconception that businesses will give you stuff just because you got skills. I doubt a representative is going to run up to you and say "Wow! awesome cork 9, you deserve a new board"! Sure, if you are winning comps left and right, eventually a rep is going to ask who are your sponsors? Think of it as a job, submit a resume that reads like a portfolio. Pics, stats, comp results, personal data, video and a narrative on why you want to represent that company. Chances are that you already have a huge sponsor, if you do more for them, I bet in return, they will do more for you. Here is a portfolio that could easily be transformed into a request for sponsorship. http://www.meaghanbuisson.com/portfolio_12Oct06.pdf Good Luck

Snowboarders only

I told ya to get out to the comps, now you know why!

rain

I see the retaining wall, but look you will see what looks to be a large hole right next to the current hotel building.

They are focused on the park if you are into park. They boast about thier pipe. It's small hill but then again so is everything in PA. Conditions in that part of the state can be markedly different better and worse than the eastern part.

Is that the new hotel going up in the background? Is the gap in the center rail really happening?

LOL! that fits about 80% of the "locals" that ride there. You can't get much more "local" if you spend your weekends on the slopes at one resort. As things progress at BB - I would imagine that there will be a program similar to what Blue and CB now have which is a semi-supervised, instructed ski school/ freeride team of sorts... usually the programs run sat and sun 9-2 pm or so with a lunch break.
