tretiak Posted August 14, 2006 Report Posted August 14, 2006 uh oh i think this means another hike up at blue with more pictures to come. Quote
Dan- Posted August 14, 2006 Report Posted August 14, 2006 There saying the new trail won't be open until 07-08...? Quote
snorovr Posted August 14, 2006 Report Posted August 14, 2006 Each year, they dump their money into the park instead of that trail. Who cares though? The other side will get it's time in the coming years. Last year was the first year that Blue really started to back the park up financially, and with all the positive feedback they got it is only natural to keep doing what is working. I kinda was hoping they'd have the other trail done too though. Quote
sexkitten Posted August 14, 2006 Report Posted August 14, 2006 New trail= less bored skiers screwing around in the park. Hurry up Blue... we want the new trail now! Quote
ColoradoHigh Posted August 23, 2006 Report Posted August 23, 2006 Any updates? I want to see some pics of the new lift and trail...... Quote
Saurus Posted August 29, 2006 Report Posted August 29, 2006 You will never get the retarted 40 yearold skier's from riding off of the sides of jumps. Id rather see a new trail than 2 new rails anyday. Quote

Stevo Posted August 30, 2006 Report Posted August 30, 2006 You will never get the retarted 40 yearold skier's from riding off of the sides of jumps. Id rather see a new trail than 2 new rails anyday. Well, the park scene is hot, so they're investing in it. Too bad. Plus, you don't need paperwork/snowmaking/permits/land clearing fees/lighting to add a few rails...... no bud, i hate blues park. And dont talk about anything that deals with rails or in the park cause you couldnt hit shit Look at his avatar......nuff said hey hate to break it to you icon but blues park blew away bear park last year. im sorry but table tops cant beat booters im so glad i didnt get a pass to bear last year because i would have never had any fun blue is deff the place to be since they keep upping there park. im sorry but bc sucked last year and i prlly wont ever do there again unless for a comp or something else I didn't much care for bare, but when i get some time, i'll head back there.

method9455 Posted August 30, 2006 Report Posted August 30, 2006 In case you didn't know, Icon is the best snowboarder ever. Thus he has the only opinion that matters on parks, becuase at 12 he has seen more parks than anyone else here. Forget the fact that a lot of us were throwing 360s on skies before he even thought about snow, and THEN we came and started doing it on snowboards too. No no no, KNOWING about parks just comes down to being young enough to try a frontside boardslide enough times becuase falling at age 7 doesn't hurt. Quote
Shadows Posted August 30, 2006 Author Report Posted August 30, 2006 becuase at 12 he has seen more parks than anyone else here. i dissagree...nipples but i dont know whats going on here with this argument, so whatever Quote
Papasteeze Posted August 30, 2006 Report Posted August 30, 2006 becuase at 12 he has seen more parks than anyone else here. I'm sure that nipples has seen many many more. Quote
snorovr Posted August 31, 2006 Report Posted August 31, 2006 I'm sure that nipples has seen many many more. Damn groms having parks their whole lives! Ya I'm not jealous... Quote
Papasteeze Posted August 31, 2006 Report Posted August 31, 2006 Damn groms having parks their whole lives! Ya I'm not jealous... He wasn't allowed in the parks until he was about 8 or 9 - He learned to ski first. although I do have some film somewhere of him doing some back country powder jumps at Alta at 7 years old. Quote
method9455 Posted August 31, 2006 Report Posted August 31, 2006 oh yea that wasn't hating on nipples at all don't worry, just icon. Its not about age its seeing/complaining about park progression. Icon complains because every park on the east coast didn't just come out of a mack dawg movie. But COMPARED TO WHAT THEY WERE, the poconos has stepped up so much in the last 5 years. Remember when Shawnee only had 3 jumps a mound of snow for a halfpipe and a pipe half exposed in the ground as a rail? Oh yea and a 3 foot long rainbow rail that was 6" high. Or when Mountain Creek's halfpipe was at South and it had like 8 foot walls? Or when Camelback's park sucked balls (oh wait it still does). I had never been to Blue before this season, but I've been going to Mountain Creek (VV/GG), Shawnee, and Camelback for 15 years, so the progression is there, and in 5 years what we have now will look quaint (although I plan to be out west in 5 years so you'll have to tell me). Sure they're not perfect, but I don't expect Blue mountain to wake up tomorrow and make a better park than mammoth, its small steps every year. They took a big step this year by clearing the trail wider and straighter, that was one of my biggest complaints. Lets see how things are setup this year, Mountain Creek has improved their grooming a huge amount just this year vs. last year becuase of people complaining, and their pipe was twice as good and open a month earlier, just one summer made a huge differance because they knew how much snow had to be made, they implimented park passes, and they got a new snow cat. And yes, they too need more improvement (open more features earlier!), but it happens over time be patient. Quote
Shadows Posted September 9, 2006 Author Report Posted September 9, 2006 wow, wikipedia already updated their info... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_Mountain_Ski_Area Quote
