I wish JFBB had a program like this Hey Splooshie, what happened to your avatar? It always cracked me up

you're right we don't have leagues Friday and Saturday night. We love open bowlers and money!

I broke my tailbone a year ago and it still hurts if I sit on a hard chair or fall on it. Check out this site for a pad, I have one and it works great. azzpadz

Go from 8am-12. You can get a lot of runs in before it starts filling up (usually around 11am).

you made your point much better in that post. Everyone is entitled to their opinion.

well "champ", I am bitching that his post seems to more of a whine about all the "rich kids" and less about the park. If camp of champions is so shitty why does everyone else on this forum say how great it is. Its one thing to complain but do it in a constructive way. Saying that the rich kids ruined his time there sounds more like jealousy than a critisism of the park. I have been looking into parks and coc seems to be the biggest around.

I am sorry we will miss it. If for no other reason I don't get to meet the infamous Doug. I thought we could ride on the lift together and he could seranade me with a rap song.

jfbb is pretty cheap as far as season passes go. Check around they are cheaper than blue and camelback. A $50 increase is one extra weekend price day, not really a big deal. BDK, you use your pass enough to make it worth it. The ticket validation isn't that bad, but I thought the season passholder window was just for validating season passholder tickets. Lately there has been a lot of people and groups in there. When you knock on the window, they are usually busy with other customers so you have to go in and wait in line. Not a huge deal, but they did say this would be a dedicated window for passholders.

just got back from a fun weekend at BB. I really thought with the freezing cold weather and road closures the mountain conditions would be icy. I was pleasantly surprised. Sat we slept in and sledded at our house in the morning (big mistake). By the time we got to BB it was packed. We stayed a few hours but hardly got in any runs because of the lift lines. Sunday I got to go by myself (no kids). It was great. I got there at 8:15 am. No lift lines. Got in 18 runs and left at 11:30 by the time the crowds started. David wanted to go to midnight madness and by the time 9pm rolled around we were tired and the wind was whipping, so we skipped it. When we woke up this morning the temp was 4 degrees. First we thought about skipping it for the day, but then we decided to bundle up and go. After an hour and a half we were cold and its a long ride back to Jersey so we left. I was proud of David for sucking it up and staying out there for a little bit today. When we left BB parking lot it warmed up to 5 degrees. All in all a great weekend.

what photo shoot at BB?

I am almost dredding it, but who else will be there this weekend?

you know I would hang out with you any time

ok every pasr day my poconos house is rented, which sucks. I can't do a 3 hour road trip each way for a one day session. Still looking for new faces to meet. We will be up there this weekend.

I don't think you will get that $3000 deal again. Prices are high now. Murphy's Loft bar has a few rooms next to them that are really bare bones, but cheap. They are clean and just redone about 2 years ago. Its about 10 minutes from each mountain. If you rent directly from JFBB make sure you see some pics of your unit first. I put some people up there and the place was a dump, especially for what I spent.

went to Dick's last week and it was on sale.

the glove liners and mittens is a good idea. David hates mittens but Stephen would prob go for this. As for the one piece....are we talking the infamous red one nips wore in some photos I saw?? Unfortunately my kids already think they are too cool...they would not wear something like that. It takes David longer than anyone to get ready in the morning. But one day neither one of them will want to be seen with their uncool mom so I guess now its all good.

thanks for the tip, I didn't know that. For as cold as it was they both did pretty good. They had 8 runs (4 then a break then another 4). On a good day I can get 12-14 out of them. It's just kind of a hassle at this age to get them all dressed in layers of clothes, boot up, go to the mountain and by the time I feel warmed up they want to take their first break or go home.

I noticed they removed cross mountain also

looked like they were blowing a lot where the pipe will be on Sunday. (1/21)

It was so fun. Papa I am sure I am ruining your rep when you hang out with me (haha). God I sucked on Bunny's elbow. I have to practice more. I dont know why It felt so steep. We'll be back in 2 weeks.

Last year I let my kids (then age 5 and 7) invite two friends to go ice skating. that was an interesting day.

ok Megan I am going to keep an eye out for you. I just really want to get him on the park. I think if he could just do one easy box or something his confidence would return. He's not riding well this season. I am sure it has to do with the fact that last season he was always with the snowmonster program. That usually meant him and an instructor to himself (usually PHilly). He needs to meet some kids to hang out with. Even though I am keeping up with him better, I am his mom for god's sake and that is no fun.

If anyone wants to do a good deed for the day...take David on the terrain park. I tried to convince him to hang out with Megan and her crew Christmas week, but half way there he punked out. I think he is intimidated. The snowmonster program won't take kids on the park anymore for liability issues. Last season he did the coffin box in the park (just straight, no tricks) and was so proud of himself. I would hear him telling his friends about it.
