lumilautailija Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 i think it would be a good idea if bear creek pushed all their snow onto the terrain parks and upper and lower Kodiak towards the end of the season tto make the snow last longer . anyone else think it would be a good idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saurus Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 no. so crowded. Maybe if they only sold tickets to kids that could actually snowboard. Id rather snowboard some dirt and grass then, decent amount of snow and a huge amount of people Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadows Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 ^youre right, forget about skiers who ride park Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ridesnwboards Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 mabey just for season pass holders?...might not bring them the money their looking for but would definitely lower the crowd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lumilautailija Posted February 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 but at the end of february is when people start to lose their interest because it starts to get warm out and it will mostly be just park rats like in the very beginning of the season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GNU_rider Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 (edited) Yeah but think about how crowded it was when it was just park rats, also if other mountains close before hand anyone who sitll wants to ride would come slinking in and buying their bear creek tickets which means even more kids then usual; don't get me wrong I'm all for being able to ride even later and have a longer season.

ltd_chick78 Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 mmm.... i'd have to respectfully say, hell no. on behalf of those of us who ride more than the park and don't lose interest after presidents' day weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supertrooper12 Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 putting aside the fact that people who just ride would be pissed, i think it is a good idea ill wait 30 min to just hit one rail if i get to hit it 3 weeks later than any other mt around.

ltd_chick78 Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 so others shouldnt be able to ride cause you cant? uh, yeah. that's exactly what i said. i'm all for no fun for anyone. sorry if i don't want to spend the last two weeks of the season crammed onto one or two trails with a bunch of twelve year olds whose parents dumped them off sitting on the landings.

DUHHHH!!!!! but for the rest of us that actually LIKE riding i think we would all deal with the crowds to make our season a couple weeks longer...

Yea dude then don't go because your clearly not hardcore about it. Id hike for a 40 foot patch of snow with or without a feature no matter how large the crowd was just to get some snowboarding in.

ltd_chick78 Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 this board exists for everyone to express their opinions, no? that's what i did, i said what i thought. no need to crawl up my ass about it. i know bear's main attraction is the park, but that doesn't mean everyone else should get shut out.

I can understand why you wouldnt want to come out if your just planning on riding b/c 2 trails arent worth it, but if you enjoy park then it would be heaven... knaw wa mean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are people who snowboard and there are snowboarders. You'll find a lot more people who snowboard than snowboarders now thats its "cool" and shit. I'd place myself in the same realm as those who would hike a mountain for 1 run down where no one else has been. Before I could drive I would spend 2 or 3 days pushing snow around in my yard after we got a few inches to build a jump so I could ride everyday after school. I'm out for opening day and out for closing (sometimes beyond). Does that mean you should? Probably not. But there are certainly some people that would.

petter369 Posted February 15, 2007 Report Share Posted February 15, 2007 yea as much as i liek snowboarding i prob wouldnt hike to ride down a 40 ft patch of snow with no feature i think that because we can ski whenever we want now everyone is saying they wouldnt go if it was just a few runs packed with people....but when its the middle of summer, that 40ft patch of snow is liiking really good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supertrooper12 Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 i would hike the whole mt for days just to hit one rail 50 times when april rolls around, i think it would be cool if bear closes everything down in april but lets the locals and shit mess around with the park and ride as long as there is snow.

k2rider2690 Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 im def a true snowboarder i mean in my backyard i have two flat boxes a flat down stair case a tree bonk and barral bonk and jumps. i would def hike the mtn but the problem with just letting people hike is that then if someone gets hurt they could be liable, plus their not going to keep ski patrol during that time, so i would highly doupt that they would do that. thats wut ice rinks and wakeboarding are for in the summer!
