Or just post everything in the camelback thread so I can ignore all of it. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I thought conditions were pretty nice today, plus got to take a ride in MBikes truck. There were some lift issues, but with the ride up to the top, it didnt really do our day in by any stretch. I didnt wish at all once today that i was skiing at camelback. have a nice evening.

please just stay at Camelback.

Well, the year's coming to an end, so I have to get the final dings in. I'm also drinking Arrogant Bastard at the moment. Also, while we were waiting for the quad to get going, George calls Blue to ask them if the shuttle is running. They told him "No, it won't start running for a few hours, why?" George tells them, "Well, both valley lifts are down right now", to which the Blue person replied "Really?"

Fuck that noise. I just saved him like $300, he should bring me a six-pack of coffee stout.

I just set salty up with the best deal he will find this year. Shit or get off the pot time.

I use headphones to tune out non-pasr people on the lifts. The bar has superior hydration benefits.

Might consider it another year. For now the 4th/5th grade ski passport for kids is good no more than 3 days each place so it enforces hopping around. Most tempting pass is actually Peak one with Frost / Hunter / Snow. Put a HSQ on East at JF and they would sell me one of those. Main reason I chose Blue over CB today is only CB is open tomorrow. Was happy with my choice though

It's not icy here, and so far Lazy is such that I wish I had somewhat wider skis. Hey saltyant, they did a full bypass for SP holders at the lift, so you can ditch Montage and start thinking Blue again

Buy them now. No reason to dilly dilly any longer. You loved 'em, Root found you a great price, just do it. Your biggest problem is going to be finding a fake ID to get into the beer store to buy Root his thank you sixer.

Free ski check yo

I don't like when they're too active, I can't keep up and then my ADD kicks in and I have to go do something else until my OCD kicks in and I have to come back and catch up on all the posts I didn't get through the first time.

Stay on topic. Ding!

Poor Salty. First new season pass, now this... You all like spending the guy's money

Yeah, we’ve all done that. I’ve blacked out many a closing weekends. I think I puked last year too.

Sure. I have bought plenty off GearTrade.com, and Skibizz is a major retailer on there. Make them an offer for $500.

Here you go: https://www.geartrade.com/item/529598/2017-volkl-rtm-81-alpine-snow-ski-ipt-xl-120-binding You are welcome. Merry Christmas.

Preferred.

Blue was pretty good this morning except for the lift delay. Other than that, conditions were great. Sidewinder opened, Chute opened, Xing Opened. New trails, firm snow. Goos stuff. And got the 40th anniversary chair on the 6er. Happy Holidays to everybody!

Now that it's open I'm gonna have to keep an eye on their Facebook for the butthurt to start flowing.

And Sidewinder opened! Sent from my R1 HD using Tapatalk

This is truth. That price for brand new wrapped RTM81s is awesome. $35 for shipping is reasonable too. Even if you decide you want something wider in a season or two, you could probably move them for not much less than that, or hang onto them as your hardpack groomer ski and get something wider anyway.

Thank you can't wait to be back at Blue Tuesday and Jackson holio in a month!!! I read everything I'm like my favorite Depeche Mode song..I just can't get enough!!!

Unfair! I would never defend Camelback. I'd much rather read and be part of an active forum than a stagnant one, even if the active one comes with a lot of noise. It's basic operant conditioning: people come back for new content. Enough visits with no new content and people stop visiting, or else there are like four people who ever post and it becomes an echo chamber. Plus you're right, I DO enjoy tuning my skis and working on my bikes and I don't suck at it. You wish you had my skillz.

eaf how old are you??

No, I'm not a handy person. Since mounting bindings is a one-time thing, I'm fine letting the shop do it. Now with my bike, I learned how to tune gear-shifting from watching YouTube videos because the damn thing always gets out of alignment and I got sick of going to the bike shop all the time. If I screw that up, worst case scenario is the chain pops off at low speed and I fall over at 2 mph maybe. Now compare that to doing 50 mph on skis and having the binding come off.. yeah, no thanks.

I like how active these forums are!!!! If there were triple as many posts I'd be even happier. I absorb these posts like Root drinks BBWs no not big black women..blackberry wheat lol

Bibby’s at 118. I dropped them off to get mounted shortly after 8 this AM. They were done by 11ish. Same day mounts is pretty legit in my book. Took them out to make sure no issues with mount ( used my sons boot since we are the same size). If I get to roll with them a time or 3 I be happy. My official storm chasin ski

Yeah, at least a 4 pack of World Wide Stout!

Get some mid fats for the choppy snow...Slalom skis sound terrible for the conditions we experience the most..sugar, cookies and apple sauce.

Mashed potatoes? It didn't get warm enough today to have any mashed potatoes around here.

I am not asking you about CB or your mustard preferences though. I asked about skis. And probably, it just might be so, that others would support that kind of conversation better than gloating over broken expresses from the top of the Stevenson lift?

I had wider skis today

What's a CM ticket? My current view.

Got to blue at 735, Jeff, toast, and jfDan in the house. Walked to six pack and told it was closed for a broken wheel. Mai. Street chair was running but blue didn't rope off runs down to six pack smh. No shuttle to top either. Loaded skis and people in mbikeskis truck and my car. Drive to top. Got 2 runs in before six pack started up again. Soon six pack broke down. Quad lines were mostly not bad but at times got past the scanners. Sidewinder opened today. Very thin edge to edge cover, but all good, just glad it's open.

No kidding here. Demo & then buy on day 1. Cheap binders is nothing to put on new sticks.

No comment

That's how my weekend worked out. Bagged skiing in the rain today, but heading up tomorrow morning. Being Christmas Eve and all gonna have to bug out kinda early so no Sausage Sunday tomorrow.

Good I want people to ski more!!!!

Actually I attribute a lot of my recent decisions to you. When I was stuck on the turnpike at Quakertown, I was going to turn back. Then you said something like "so what, you ski 3 hours instead of 4. YOLO". That post changed my mind and I ended up having a great time at Blue.

Maybe he will join us for a ride sometime up to Blue?

Looking forward to your ride reports in the bike thread.

Lol 😂 No this is easy. Look Px or Pivots. Can’t go wrong.

I hope there is video of each ski demo with commentary along the run.

Indiggio was super nice and we skied a couple of runs and he gave me some great advice on my stance. I think I met Tarpon, too?? God, sorry I got a bit lost trying to remember screen name and real names and I was operating on about two hours' sleep.

Ride the lift up to the fucking top of the mountain. Take the fucking water slide down to Uncle Bills, then hop on the fucking mountain coaster, and be prepared to jump off at Sullivan Trail. This is the Circus that you signed up for. Oh, by the way, both the water slide and mountain coaster are double blacks, so you are good to go. Dont forget to turn on your go pro.
