  1. I'm liking the no lines part a lot. Hoping for short waits this weekend - dont expect no lines just yet on Saturdays and Sundays
  2. Thanks. I dont see the benefit of paying extra for bindings, unless they're lighter I guess? As long as the binding does its job of not releasing randomly and releasing when it's supposed to, thereby ensuring I dont break a femur or tibia, I'll be happy with it
  3. I have no idea what bindings to get. The only 2 on True Blue's website are: - Tyrolia Attack2 13 GW '21 - $199 - Tyrolia AM 12 GW '21 - $159 I assume they have other bindings available or are these good??
  4. 307 mm. Sure, you can try them if they fit. I trust you wont take them in the woods or jump any couloirs.
  5. This is bananas. I got free shipping since it was between $20 to $50 extra for expedited shipping of various time frames. Woulda been a complete waste of Johnny Cash. If they actually come by Friday I'll be ripping down Challenge on them by Sunday. Maybe I'll even be first in line even after picking them up from True Blue on Sunday morning
  6. They can put up color coded diagrams in the line like PC does showing various arrangements of different parties which can be put on the lift and still have enough distance to space. This way maybe thered be less instances of a single riding the 6 pack with 100 people waiting in line
  7. If the Epic Pass goes on sale soon and allows spring skiing at Hunter, I'm there
  8. Park City was very enjoyable on a Sunday. I got a shit ton of runs in which was amazing for a weekend The lines seemed to move so much faster than at Blue. Of course there are many lifts to choose from, but I didnt even mind waiting in some lifts with lines. PC and other resorts actually put a great effort into loading the lifts as much as possible while still ensuring social distancing. Maybe just maybe Blue will start considering expanding like those top secret plans that have been spread around the Interwebz? Besides loading lifts more efficiently, or raising prices, that's the only other way to alleviate the 15 minute waits
  9. Anecdotal evidence doesn’t fly with this crowd. @GrilledSteezeSandwich said so
  10. IDK... I guess either Jack Frost Dan or a large boulder 🤷‍♂️
  11. Thanks for the offer but he's saving his buddy pass for Zonked.
  12. WJW, maybe I should delay buying a Blue Mountain pass since I'm leaning towards an Epic Pass anyway. Imagine, skiing Camelback AND JFBB....
  13. Correct. But I got free shipping so I'll probably have to wait 9-15 days
  14. VIP line was good when they filled the lifts to capacity. As a single I could board a lift with minimal waiting regardless of how long the main line was. Now it's just another line though if you get a decent worker they'll let more than 1 VIP groups board at a time.
  15. Oh come on, that's not far! We biked that many miles around Blue Mountain the True Mountain.
  16. Cant wait for sum Biden bux. I need some new skis, a Blue season pass, maybe an Epic pass...
  17. They handled icy conditions very well. Where I'd be hesitant on the RTMs, I just ripped down the ice on the Ripsticks. Yes, I encountered many slick spots at each mountain due to freeze/thaw
  18. Will do it tonight. This is grate!
  19. I'm not sure I'm physically capable of skiing moguls properly 🤷🏻‍♂️ I guess that means I can't ski
  20. That's the game plan. I tried local shops for the skis including True Blue but no one has them, so online for the skis it is.
  21. You should see me ski moguls. I cant turn for the life o me so I cut across and turn reluctantly hoping I dont fuck up an ACL or something
  22. I saw your post and then edited mine. Agree 100% about bindings, not something I want to mess with
  23. Thanks, might do that since Enjoralas found me the skis without bindings for $520. The other deal online is $750 with bindings and free mount but that's $230 extra. @Justo8484 Excellent advice, I'd rather have Blue mount the bindings for me. Thanks
  24. I'm inclined to get the 2021's since that's what I demoed and they're stiffer
  25. Called all local ski shops for Elan Ripstick 96, 180/181 and nothing Found this deal online - $750 grand total with Marker Griffon 13 bindings mounted. https://www.aspenskiandboard.com/collections/ski-packages/products/ripstick-96-mens-ski-package?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIv5mjx6ah7wIVgtrICh1A8wYeEAAYASAAEgInD_D_BwE Any reason I shouldn't click purchase?? Would you trust an online shop to mount bindings??
