  1. Rode with Atomic this morning, still pretty deep and surprisingly good turns. The Gm guy was down at the bottom handing out donuts and he said they are running tomorrow rain be damned. Unlike blue they also update their report before skiing is scheduled to open. I'll be up if its not raining otherwise sleeping in but no joke it is good skiing.
  2. That's the fun part lol Rode with JFskiDan and benm shit was rocking from the start and real ski it if you can type snow. Mad people out and about, like the tuxs of PA. Super fun and who do we see in the lot who was out skiing but mbike and nico. Mad props that isn't the easiest first day back.
  3. I'll be there in the morning, JFDan i think was maybe coming too and Atomic will be there Sunday i believe.
  4. Rode today, Atomic was in the house but I some how never saw him. Cliffhanger had every type of snow imaginable but all was pretty good. Bumps on the right rowdy piles on the left, some smooth around. Super warm and the vibe is awesome, everyone is stoked to ride in PA on April 17th and part of it is just like can you ride it ? Do you have the skills to pay the bills ? That's super super fun to me and bouncing around at 75 degrees at CB is rare.
  5. I didn't know we had a thread going, yesterday at Stratton, today, its what this shit is all about. Soft laps at Mach looney and beers in the lot under the sun, I'd choose this everyday and twice on Sunday. My attendance was required elsewhere first thing this morning so trying to catch them, going up the gondy I spot a skier with the skis angled to the moon throwing up a massive rooster coming down ovation at a clip not seen in mortal men. He's flanked by two other skiers getting equally as rowdy and it dawns on me its them. It's rare I see us from afar and it is impressive no bullshit. I got a semi bronze in the face in VT, that's normally not even on the radar but maybe best I spend the entire day laughing. Grade a, top shelf, fork lift certified shit.
  6. Boner city! The beers alone...... are you up this week ? I'm in Killy now.
  7. I was not thinking at 6am and had way too many layers for 70 degrees. I drank like 2 gallons of fluid on the way home and I'm going to pee dust.....and what a fucking glorious day. Cliffhanger started to get actually good on the left side bumps and there's nothing like attacking spring rowdy shit like Vikings getting booty in an English monastery. Back when he was still Kanye.... my life is dope because I do dope shit and today was dope.
  8. Rode with Atomic, foggy and warm with a light to medium pick up on the goggles. When we arrived only Nile and Pharaoh where open, the skiing gods having heard Atomics tales of double cloud 9 shined their light favorably upon us and as we were skiing by he noticed the patrolers dropping the rope on Cliffhanger. After a longish pre briefing we were off and sliding down a surface similar to the moon. Parts were better, parts were worse but as I'm lmao I can hear atomic doing the same all the way to the lift. Chefs kiss 💋 Nile and Pharaoh were groomed super soft and quite good. Both make the weekend but Pharaoh probably not after that. Super super nice morning for April
  9. One of my most conflicted days on the calendar, the end of blue but we always make it fun. The snow was way better than I thought and decent turns could be found still on closing day as long as there is snow the rest is irrelevant. Fucking A blue was good shit this year and we played the game like champions
  10. Today was the perfect setup, lift up Razors looks like pure death so everything else felt pretty ok when it was just normal refrozen. Grip was only ok but part of the is my fault with butter knife edge skis. I hate the end of season, like truly but it was a good day for what should have been absolute dog shit. Tomorrow I think has some real play if it can get warm enough.......plus I hear a bohdi sighting is in the works.....
  11. Nothing besides Stevenson is making it past this weekend IMHO, most of the bear stuff closed this morning. The window I'd think is too narrow to put some of those back together.
  12. Saucer Boy !!!!!! Squaw still does a whole saucer boy day though they use blades as it makes uphill way more interesting to watch.........I said to Benm that two minis, one for each foot, sketchy af as I think you would spin down the hill partially.
  13. I was pretty much at blue when they decided to open at 12, part of bfgs crew was wondering around so they didn't get the message in time either. Oh well CB it is, shit was not good though, like for sure the worst I skied all year and maybe in a few. I figured it would be firm as it was a cold 40 but they didn't groom and between that and the rain refreeze it was like flanders Belgium cobblestone. The black next to cliffhanger was near unskiable at points and my God the noise it made. Like loose change in the dryer as the ski pinged off a million rando terrain variations. Pocono raceway maybe had a groomer down it and that was terrible but fine.....the others though set your skis to Hitachi magic wand mode and well maybe the ladies loved it but after and hour and quarter I could take no more.
  14. Rode this morning, superb but 4/6 ways down have an Achilles heal of sorts. All that lidar talk and still every year 98% trail is good but there's a death spot. Really impressive is alot are in the shade. Sunday will be interesting.... Snow was absolutely hero and it was super super fun ponce de Leon'ing your way down the hill trying not to end up in the dirt. Maybe 50 people out i only saw half of bfgs crew.
  15. Rode with mad Blue peeps this morning. Super super nice day, nobody was out besides Oz, jersey Mike, etc etc Coverage is absurd, Stevenson was running and I went there first but everything has good coverage. I didn't dick with birches so who knows there but the Stevenson side is stupid stupid deep. Cliff hanger no joke might make may. Snow was winter like with soft on top and everyone agreed it was a most superb morning.
  16. Always one of my favorite days of the year, there is no crew that does it better but add in some nice weather and shit was perfection. Rotd was switch, what a hoot but nothing was really bad. Super super shout out to Enjo, as always the food was redic and that's a long ass day of cooking. Not to be the soft liberal vag of the group but its the peeps that make things and it was an honor and pleasure.
  17. Good day, ratty snow with some strange thickness but they blew in march so what can you do. Switch was probably the best and by 1030 it was getting super soft, would be very nice in the afternoon if it wasn't a zoo. Always feels like bonus weekend when nm/gss make a Friday appearance.
  18. Very good, as far as I could tell anything they blew on throughout the year was open and had full coverage. There are a couple of brown spots around but they are grapefruit size and hardly noticeable. I'm a complete idiot when it comes to trail names but lower Marc Anthony? and Basilsk don't go and it looked to me that they haven't all season ? In general I've found there snow to be similar to blue but a bit better and that's what I found today. Can never be salty about them blowing especially in mid March but it does make for super fast jfbb like laps.
  19. That's not actually that crazy, the most important thing for snow in terms of skiing is the formation of the nucleus. Super small dust particles are often the move but if you get something better you can do crazy numbers and %. The great salt lake was this way before they drained it..... to work for blue though i think the zinc mine would need to be in like Harrisburg though
  20. With Blue closed i and 99977282 other blue regulars were slumming it up at CB. Super nice day and the snow while hard had reasonable grip. Regardless as I understand they have/are running big bear 6 or whatever only during the week. I heard 9388392 million different explanations or conspiracy theories but either way it makes those front side runs super super fast.
  21. Many peeps all over are jelly of that base, 7springs is kaput among others and I do have to say their base is pretty spectacular all things considered. Snow was just ok but in some ways it feels like a bonus.
  22. I've been in nyc for work all week and would love to ski some ice....its late season and now the game is just to survive
  23. After a weekend of no skiing and meetings all morning I was jonesing to get out. I saw some of Kurt's crew but otherwise it was empty. Snow was obvious, it's 70 degrees out. Hyper soft do anything you want bouncy but why weren't you jumping off it in the first place ? With only the quad the little gap side was quiet af and dare I say half way to a legit corn harvest. Never would I wish for such temps but it did make for a glorious day.
  24. Rode with Atomic and C1er, foggy af, the top 1/3 was lights out where I was 100% using him as the light house. Snow was mostly good with some harder shit spots and some softer absolute cream. Nmdw and main where best but main was the one where you have to switch sides post mid. I'm at a dance comp all weekend so while good it only sort of the fix I was looking for.
  25. Some fog at the top of the hill plus my crows got dinged on the rack in ME somehow so I'm on backups and still it was a pretty boner doner day. Soft and low crowds you could really let the dogs out, Razors, side, nmdw were all rotd. I would imagine it will get uneven eventually being that soft but a super nice day.
