i dunno about that. whoever does public relations at blue doesnt do a very good job in my opinion. and i think that blue should have a ton more comps than they do since they have such a quality park this year. maybe they should spend their money on something else besides tubing.

i'm pretty sure they started out with 5 or 6 this year and there are twice as many interested for next year from what i have been hearing from Chris and others who run the program.

id go up but i have to go back to school for some stupid team leadership conference for soccer. they just dont understand how important skiing is. its gonna be mad crowded anyway being a holliday weekend.... the worst part is that i probably wont be able to ski tomorrow or monday either and three days off in a row is going to kill me.

tubing is a piece of crap. screw it. they should spend $0 on that. Blue isnt known for its tubing, its known for its slopes. spend money on what people care about.

you cant seriously believe that what they had set up for the comp last night was better what Blue has now. a 10ft table? be real son. have you been to Blue since three years ago?

yeah the boarder girls werent that great... some of the skiers though were pretty good. like Kate, who won. papasteeze... nips did pretty well last night. he should have gone into the older age group for more of a challenge instead of staying with the little kids though... i think he would have dont fine there and thats one way that he can definately get better... if he is pushed to do more stuff to compete

Nothing special? Say that once Bear has a better park. 1) Blue has had the pipe open for more than 2 weeks... where is Bear's? 2) Blue has at least three 40ft+ jumps... Bear has ughhh...??? 3) Blue has more than a 3 inch base. 4) Bear's park is loaded with dirt jibs. Don't say its nothing special when it is 10x better than what Bear has out now. Not that i dont like Bear's park, because I do when it is like last years.... but right now it is pretty much nonexistant.

i think i'm heading up to Blue now... it looks like crap outside with the fog and drizzle but i need to feed my skiing addiction one last day before i go back to school.

he was saying that the lip onto it kicked you up too high... not that he thought it should be ride-on with no gap at all.

i jsut sent Blue and email as well...

nice nice... how are the jumps looking and how big?

what other rails are there besides big, wide, flat boxes? oh, decent vid. some of the boarders were good.

i dont ski at Bear that often but i kinda think that having tree skiing there isnt worth the money or effort to clear the trails. look at the place now.... its hard enough to keep a solid base on the the trails that they blow on. i couldnt immagine tree skiing being open for more than a few days each season with the occasional 6+ inch dumps... just my opinion...

no they are lame. while watching ski movies you rarely see a backflip unless its a crazy backcountry booter with shitloads of snow. you see cab 9s and 10s with double grabs because flips are lame and dont require skill. if i wanted to do a flip i would try one. but they suck. and you know it. flipping off of a rail is a completely different story though

its about a 7 1/2 - 9 minute drive depending on who you get stuck behind and if the passing lanes are clear... but yeah... it was mad foggy when i left. i think i might head up again tonight if it isnt too rainy... but for now i'm taking my aunt out for lunch and probably hitting up Nestors to see whats new and then to Home Depot to buy some more supplies for rails....

if you are going to drive 2 hours go to Blue. they ahve the same stairs set-up but better. and the park is rediculous. and judging by that video... the place looks lame this year so far

conditions were really good this morning... no new rails in the park. just some weird twin tipper who needs to learn some form of style before he comes skiing again. he spun this haggard looking 3 and his skis were all over the place and had freakin airplane arms. then he goes and hits some box and his skis were all over again. he. not to mention when he is out of the park he couldnt ski for crap. that just bothers me for some reason. i think that actually knowing how to ski helps your skills in the park tremendously...

jealous? anybody can throw themselves backwards and see where it gets them. its not the jealousy factor. its all about style. they are ugly. plain and simple. i would rather see a huge 180 with a grab over a hucked out backflip anyday.

yes, Blue will go straight out of business. good call.

i'm going up now... word on the slopes is that they might have a new rail or two up in the park. we will see i guess.

park is amazing... like i said before. its the best park i have even skied at besides Mount Snow. id take a pass to montage over blue if i lived up there... especially since nobody goes there. but i live 7 1/2 minutes from Blue so its a little more inviting and the park is better, by far. thanks

what sucks for Bear is that even though it is close to Blue... the temp difference hurts them so much because Blue is blowing tonight but i dont think Bear is able to because it is too warm...

not bad... a little repetitive...

blue has 100% and will for a while..... tons of snow all over. they did a good job early this season getting a solid base down. as for montage..... there is a reason there are no liftlines there....

i have been sending email like that for the last 3 years....
