Hey just thought I'd pass this along, monday Oct. 13th 8PM in room 200C of the Student activities center.
We've got two pros showing up from the video along with a whole bunch of swag to throw out and a board raffle and you can go get your drink on at the after party, so come out show some face and enjoy the flick!
Here's the event on facebook for you facebook addicts: http://www.facebook.com/events.php?ref=sb#...eid=31180653433

It's only boards, Moe. It's a great shop, though. Stop in, and they may convert you.
Yeah we're strictly a snow and skate shop usually identified or classified as a "Core shop" to snowboarding.
-
The rome 390s you will not regret it, besides rome is soo good around warranty so they will help you out if even the smallest thing happens; besides the limited edition is so dope this year green and pink is so legit on whatever board you have I mean it even looks good on a yellow skate banana.

Well I tell customers to wrap their nose and tail with their pants and jacket so they can't get a delam or some sort of damage, but I know what's coming what if my board bag get's jacket I'm out a board, jacket and pants. This is a risk I also recommend putting your boots in there either in between or on either side of your bindings so you don't end up with a shattered high back or anything, again same theft issue but you're taking the risk of flying with your board you might as well make sure it's safe if you don't have a hard case.

Post a review/opinion of the flux bindings after you've ridden 'em a couple times.

Also, as we all know, the majority of guests coming in March come for the parks. Starting March 10th we will turn Timberline and the entire tubing park into terrain park, snow permitting. The best way to assure that we stay open longer is to spread the news to your friends, family, even enemies that the conditions can be great in March.
Andy is already formulating ideas for the new terrain we are turning over to him and the park crew and I expect to see some pretty creative features.
This is why I always defend bear creek when people come down on them, I love it and I can't wait I'm already ready for it I heard rumors of a natural park on or near timberline maybe now it'll be a fact not rumor?
-
whats the date? but umm i was pretty gapered out today for a few runs. joey (kid with no poles) and i both were doing it it was a blast. i was wearing a sick neon jacket tucked into my pants with no poles and a gaper gap. but i forgot my snowblades!
I saw you guys killin' it had a good laugh but one suggestion when you guys jump next time be sure to flail as much as possible and knuckle it, I kept hoping someone would do it for laughs but didn't see it.
-
and definately something to stall on like the bleacher box would be perfect in a hike park. in the regular parks it breaks the flow of your line.
How about the mail box sideways at the end of the park instead of off the cliff as a rail?
-
Yo I just want to say the set up for the jam was absolutely ridiculous the stair set was unreal, boulder every time I come up I never leave disappointed and saturday night was no exception wild shit!
-
Well first off I like the set up right now although it would be cool to see the urban rail after the mtn. lab stairs a little higher up out of the snow, and the movable wall would be nice to see again maybe at the bottom of black bear; and whoever said a propane tank I whole heartedly agree I rode the one at boulder saturday night and it was so fun bear needs one no questions asked. Also whoever is saying that black drain pipe is in a bad spot just hasn't done any 180 on 180 offs it feels good, but one thing that should be done is change up what's on top of the cliff a real rail or something else maybe even the flat down that would be pretty wild.
One thing park crew yesterday did SUCH a good job cleaning up and remaking the lips and in run to the mtn. lab stairs it was looking so good but the landing could've used some love it was rough and kinda sketchy, I think my final bit is about the jump line some one said a rhythm section how about a set of three jumps with two or three length launches for each, or maybe a channel gap?
-
Can we do a 50-50 to ass slide train on the wide butter box?
-
I don't ski but I absolutely need to see this it sounds so hilarious to see I can't wait!
-
Well the thing is it's not a concept like the family park, I said this in the last thread about this make it something like the ole rail park at killington set up a 3 plateau set up and an in run above the first one and on the down of each plateau have a line up of maybe 2 or 3 features that you can hit; so it's kind of like a rail jam set up only it's something you can just session all day because those set ups are soo good when I was up at killington last year I ended up riding theirs for like 2 and a half hours it was just so good. Besides it would give them a chance to bring back features that have been absent lately maybe put in that super fat pipe on a down slant up and out of the snow, a flat down maybe put the concrete ledge on a down slant.
I mean after that rail jam a week ago I tried hiking the flat down set up and it was a lot of fun... until some really nasty courtesy patrol guy yelled at us then got ski patrol to come over who told us he didn't care but because someone complained he had to tell us to leave; Beat out come but a fun thing while it lasted.

Yo spectrum and g-spot boardshops are sponsoring the big air this friday and a bunch of us will be there stop by say hi, who knows you might even score some free shit and honestly who doesn't love some free shit?
-
I wish I could ride jumps as much as I used to, I did a number on my right knee last november so I find myself staying pretty low to the ground because knuckling a landing or hanging up on a 5 could have me out for a month to 6 weeks with a couple of lovely knee drains mmmmm. I also think like some people were saying earlier snow quality east coast kids go out west and within three weeks can just kill a jump line so you might see a different feel when you're out there!
-
Good point rows I hope it stays decent.
-
I guess I'm not on the cutting edge with facebook oh well still a great group.
-
Perfect we should make this an official event with bear creek some how.
-
Yeah here's the trick go up from open to about 3 then you've got a solid day with good conditions and the lines aren't to bad, besides if they do get bad just go hike something fun or just go home.....
-
Rode the weekend saturday and sunday, incredible conditions the snow was great the entire time I was there lines weren't TO bad and the set ups were amazing I love the set up on cascade that hip is great.
-
Can we all wear jeans, baseball hats and sunglasses because if that's the dress code I'm so in!
-
Okay a few things is anyone on here on facebook, if so have you seen this group Bear Creek is a way of life and if you have are you a memeber?

We still don't know forum hasn't told us they said "mystery pros" so I would say go look on the tour site and see who's not supposed to be anywhere, it could be any of those people as far as we know.
