  1. Oh crap, I edited my post too late and you caught my pre-edit. Looking forward to seeing how bad I get busted on for this blunder.
  2. That's ok. Maybe this post will convince Ski2Live or eaf to pick up some triple tickets.
  3. Eaf, I'm in the minority here, but you've convinced me to check it out. I like exploring new mountains even if they're not a Vail, Killington, or Blue... ...oh wait, a stand up gondola? Nevermind, I think I'll have to pass.
  4. I agree, that sounds awful. That's one major reason I like CB so much; hardly any flat terrain that requires a lot of exertion when they're fully open. The Stevenson side is amazing and zero effort is required at all! I believe Blue is similar but haven't hit every trail there yet to know for sure. Gondolas are fun! I love riding the gondies at Killington. My favorite is the very end of Great Eastern when I get the Skyeship Stage 1 Gondola all to myself.
  5. Thanks. I don't know when mashed potatoes form, but this is reassuring. I have a hard time making turns in them, and that caused me to full yard sale on a green run on hot cocoa day with Ski2Live and now he probably thinks I'm a gaper.
  6. Just get a $50 phone instead and ration your data so if you lose It no big deal. Then you can track your vertical, run count and speed just like me and post more details on the ski leaderboard.
  7. Any predictions for snow quality Thursday through Monday? Below are my n00bish guesses. I hope I'm completely wrong. Steeze, can you weigh in with your expertise? Thursday = super mashed potatoes by evening Friday/Saturday = complete washout., fast snow Sunday/Monday = extreme ice
  8. Come freestyle wrap again this season at the top of Sullivan.
  9. Oh jeez I dont know, I can't remember what day of the week It is. I dont recall skipping any grades.
  10. What do you mean??
  11. Naw meng, I was a junior in college.
  12. I need to become independently wealthy like all of you so I can ski every single morning. These pics make me extremely jealous right now. Is there currently a market to start a cemetery marker company anywhere?
  13. Haha, it's so funny reading real TRs from Camelback. I guess in a decade or so I'll be extremely anti-CB as well.
  14. Steeze just doesn't want to admit that he has some more competition now from you!
  15. Do they have moguls on Dreamweaver or a blue run? I agree with everything you wrote. I realized that I get really bored after a while if I dont try new things. Trying new skis and skiing glades for the first time brought back some of the excitement I felt when I started skiing in the first place So yeah, I definitely would like to keep advancing because it is a lot more fun than just stagnating and doing the same things over and over.
  16. As soon as CB makes some moguls in late March then I'll advance from a low-low level intermediate to a mid-low level intermediate. Then I will be skiing.
  17. My favorite part is when he makes that stupid laugh at 0:37 after saying "well that hurt but DT stills runs so round two".
  18. Lol, I think your request was very reasonable and they were being unfair. I've complained about a lot lesser things. I just try to be nice to the people that make my food since I don't want to eat too much saliva.
  19. I meant to quote you on this earlier because you told me the same exact thing on one fateful Sunday afternoon in December last year.
  20. I think that was poor customer service. If you pay to demo 3 demos, you should be entitled to 3 demos. Period. Even if it's on another day. Glad to hear they changed their mind. The guys at the CB demo center were really cool and even let me take out the RTMs again at the end of the day, and I can't imagine Blue is that strict. You probably just caught someone in a bad mood.
  21. I was astonished when I came across this old school trip report. https://www.paskiandride.com/forums/topic/13848-tr-camelback-3-28-2009/ I love how it says you guys "tackled the steeps". Yeah, yeah, I'll probably get a Blue pass and see how I like it next season (and starting this Feb). I believe CB is $399 and Blue is $449, so it's only $50 more. Next year CB will be $599 for me.
  22. Yeah how'd you guess??? I was actually thinking about that today, and don't understand why it's considered uncool to order well done burgers and steaks.
  23. Same with me. I'm not sure how much longer I'm going to last here after posting about a stupid meme in another TR, but at least I entertained myself for a few minutes.
  24. Thanks tarponhead for always encouraging me to make runs that are three levels of difficulty beyond my ability. I guess the best way to advance is just dive right into the hardest runs in the world.
