'08/'09 season thread or something.

Yeah I was planning on going this weekend, still trying to iron out the details with my friends. If anyone else wants to tag along we could get a caravan/car pool going 😛

I wont be able to swing this weekend, but will be up there next. If you're going to go then, let me know.

I'll probably head up there this weekend for a day- $25 with a big lift card.
 
Anyone make it up to Hunter this weekend?

What do they have setup in terms of a park?
This was about all I could find (on the web site). Pics were dated 11/23.

My x-wife was up there and she said the snow was really good and there was no crowd to speak of. She is a snow snob too so it must have been good.
 
Bellearye Friday 11/28

Catskills and points north are getting snow tonight. If conditions are good I'm heading to Bellearye friday 11/28. $25 lift tic promo. Anyone want to roadtrip?
 
Good sit at Bellearye Friday. The mountain had snow but not alot opened, it wasn't groomed. By after lunch the crust on the closed trails softened up and made for good skiing. Even though they had snow it looked like the staff wasn't ready for opening, should get better as time goes on.
 
I hit up Hunter yesterday. Not bad for this early in the season. The snow was typical east coast granular but edgable. They actually had wayout on hunter west open and some good snow could be found on the side of that. Got bored fairly quickly doing cruisers so spent most of the day in the park.
Hunters park is never too great, but we had fun. Typical jump up top with maybe a 20' deck, 2 flat boxes (one about a 30'), a fun box, and a small tabletop.
I took my first nasty spill of the season working on switch landings off the jump up top. One time my binding ejected sending me tumbling backwards down the mountain, always scary. Alyssa took a nasty one too working on her boardslides on one of the boxes 🙁 Oh well, it's good to be back and feel that pain!
 
I got a few days at Stowe over Thanksgiving. Conditions were good considering it was the end of November and there hasn't been much natural.
 
The safety bar was up so what held him up there??

he actually slid through the seat back and seat cushion - the seat was not installed properly according to some article i read. that would be scary and mortifying. i wonder if he had bib snowpants on if he wouldnt have had the pants issue... :hmmm:
