Yeah the whole mountains covered with say about 5-6 inches! I say we get a few people and go get some runs in today!
But seriously, I wanna see those guns roaring.
-
Any chance of those guns blowing tonight?
-
Tonight is pretty marginal but tomorrow night they could probably start blowing.. Doubt they will but it would be nice. They would be able to blow until next Tuesday and Wednesday and after that temps are good again.
-
Ill be up along with Mattykins and a few buddies tonight.
-
Im thinking about heading up Wednesday. But anyway it looks like tonight and another night are the only nights that are impossible for snowmaking according to Accuweather for Lake Harmony this week. Temps will be dropping again real soon.
-
damn. anyone else going to be there at night time? i cant make it until around 5. i have to drive to baltimore to get my new car. ill be coming up solo as all my friends feel their frickin girlfriends are more important than snowboarding anymore. damn. to be fair a few have work...
shit. would it even be worth it to bring a first timer along? hes been buggin me to bring him snowboarding all fall.
I know how that goes with your friends and girlfriends. Everybody is whipped these days.
Well yeah Im heading out in about a half hour, see everybody there. Im wearing white pants, bluish undershirt and a red tshirt over top of that, and possibly a cat in the hat hat.
-
Earliest open seen in a lonnnnnng time if ever for PA. Thats got some potential. Its gonna be crowded but hey Im not gonna complain to get to ride this early in the season. And you gotta figure that they are going to be first to be 100% open. Last year when everybody closed down they opened their big park. haha
-
haha like 300 people on one trail and probably like 10 features. Sounds like death to me, but at least its a good death. Yeah anybody have any info on whats getting set up and anybody wanna go early for a little skate sesh on the mini?
-
Ill be there Saturday from 10AM to around 6PM.
-
Yeah good call, it all depends on what time I can get up to Boulder though. If I can skip this birthday party Im supposed to go to then Ill definately be at the premiere. Ticket prices are 20$ for the day.
-
I have a birthday party that I am supposed to go to but I am going to try to skip. Somehow or another Ill most likely be there.
-
I was thinking about going, but it looks like this is Boulders opening weekend too! Oh snap! Just posted on there site for Saturday the 10th! Earliest season?
-
Its posted on jfbb.com! HELL YES!
-
Think Boulder
Boulder is blowing snow as I am typing this, they just announced it.
-
haha I see some people having to pay up. First guns of the season everybody. Time to celebrate.
Once again mad props to Boulder.
-
The forecast looks rather promising. And I have to agree that I dont think they were just saying at the rail jam all day that they were gonna try to blow snow for shits and giggles. Seriously if they are going to attempt to open this early why try to doubt it? Be happy there is a possibility to ride or ski this early and hope for the best.
-
If they open the 17th Ill most definately make it up. Props to Boulder for pushing for such an early opening date.
-
It was mad fun, a product toss like every hour was pretty sweet. A UFC match in the parking lot. A couple nice falls nothing major. Just a mellow comp. It was pretty sweet, the DJ was pretty sick too along with all the rubber neckers driving by.
-
I dont know, the feature looks kinda fun actually.
-
AHH the old rails! I think I just creamed myself. I thought they were all gone. haha but seriously we have the longest park around basically and a lot of the smaller parks around almost have as many jibs if not more. We could definately throw a lot more in there. What Im hoping for is more double or even triple take off jumps. Well maybe not triple but definately double. That dfd looks like a lot of fun though. Props to Park Crue its looking good.
-
Any ideas on where it will be placed?
Maybe the halfpipe? Then the pipe would be semi-worth riding! haha j/k Nah Im guessing near the cement mixer at the bottom of Lower Sidewinder or in Terrain Run. I dont see it making its way up to come around and it would take up way to much room on such a small trail. It looks like a fun feature. Its gonna be pretty wide so itll be nice to screw around on and stuff. I do agree a better investment could of been made but hey its Blue's call not ours.
I really miss the old rails like the massive rainbow that was actually a rail, and the c rail and that sweet flat down back in the day. That flat to step down flat rail was pretty cool too. Lets not forget the sharkfin.
-
And when I say quarterpipe... Maybe something a little bigger than this.
-
so i was thinking, i know we have new rails and all that, so a snow feature i would like to see would be a nice quarterpipe somewhere... and that made me think, it would be even more awsome if it was a spine, they are soo much fun.. but something like that would proly get run down way too quickly?
Yeah man 1/4 pipes are sick but mad hard to maintain. A spine would be pretty crazy. They had the quarterpipe at the bottom of the halfpipe last year which was alright at times but angled wrong I think cause the only way to get any decent speed was to rip down the side of the pipe. I think a sweet spot for 1 would be right after where the crackerbarrel was last year. Like the landing of it but all the way up against the tree line.
set up the wallride on an angle like this:
Exactly.
-
i have an idea for blues park, it would be a sick progressive feature, a big ass Bowl coated w/ like polyeuratheane, not too deep but sloped enough to get mad pop, but still be able to butter and slide through the "dish", just an idea
I agree it would be sick but like 3/4 of the people at Blue cant make it over a 10ft butter box.
opening when
in Blue Mountain

Im thinking the guns will start up the day after Thanksgiving (this Friday) and they will open December 1st. Thats my guess.
