racing is not my specialty. i really dont have a specialty. ha. but, i would suggest buying instead of renting. you could check out ebay and online outlets and such for discounted or used items that you could buy and keep to use whenever. i'm just not really a fan of renting equipment.
its true. they get rid of baseball and softball, yet continue to have that terrible ribbon dancing stuff. if people can ribbon dance, then people can slide a weight puck down a 22' table.
i'm glad i'm not the only one who enjoys that amazing sport.
good thing with Blue, if you dont have a place to stash your gear, is that you are always able to park close enough to keep everything in your car and boot up there without worrying about your gear. i guess thats a good thing if you look at it.
yeah it's got to be a killer deal. i'm going to have mortgage payments starting up pretty damn soon and thats going to be putting a damper on some of the extras that i'm used to.
Blue Mountain definitely has one of the longer and better bump runs on Barney's Bumps. Towards the end of last year, they also had the entire left side of Challenged bumped up until the headwall of Falls, which was very nice.
it will be easy to find something cheap that can hold at least 3 pairs of skis. my rack is supposed to hold 6 pairs of skis, but i can only get 5 in it because of having all fat skis up there all the time.
i forget... maybe about 2 hours? its not far, though. and definitely worth the drive. you could fly into Vancouver but that might cost a little more than flying into Seattle. It's worth it to head into Seattle because its such an awesome city, and maybe you could spend a night there.
yeah i have said something about putting a turbine up there years ago before all of this 'going green' stuff came about. its good that they are finally doing something, though.
