burton71 Posted January 17, 2008 Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 I might be up in the Scanton area this weekend and am thinking about hitting up Sno. How is the park setup and the overall conditions on the MT? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt80 Posted January 17, 2008 Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 Ok, first off you can do a flat-down or a picnic table. Then a jump. Then either a sorta long flat rail or a flat-down handrail or a flat down box. Then another jump. Then a double barrel flat rail. Then a 2-jump line. Then a battleship and last but not least a rainbow. That was as of last night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Papasteeze Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 And the asshole flamer throws in his two cents! Get a life, you moron. You should ease up ski.. A very talented park skier said basically the same thing yesterday. If he posted, would you flame him the same? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
librider Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 i dont like the park, it was better on mainline haha....no flow either and the jumps are terrible. apparently didnt listen to anything n the terrain park thread I will agree with the jumps, They aren't what they could be. But I do think it does have flow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ski Posted January 20, 2008 Report Share Posted January 20, 2008 You should ease up ski.. A very talented park skier said basically the same thing yesterday. If he posted, would you flame him the same? Someone who posts about family members the way he did should be banned. And if a "very talented park skier" acted like that, then they'd be treated the same way until they learned about crossing the line. And you egged the little boys on, as well, Rob, so F you, too. BTW, Rob, you home hill sucks for anything but park. How's the race program? Oh, yeah, I forgot...racing is uncool. Luckily there's video games to keep busy with.

JordanA Posted January 22, 2008 Report Share Posted January 22, 2008 And the asshole flamer throws in his two cents! Get a life, you moron. o i forgot. Any constructive criticism against sno is a sin to you. and you flame way more than me, i did on two threads because u pissed me off. Also, when i go skiing i dont say "OMG i cant wait to put this in my AMAZING TR", if i see something wrong i just point it out. therefore dont tell me to get a life because i have a great life. P.S. : Librider, it does have decent flow, but they dont have to put 3 rails on 1 headwall. I think they wasted a lot of space towards the bottom, they could have a nice rail garden if they wanted to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of your posts are hating on papasteeze and recently hating on my friends and I. Also, i can't wait to get out of this area and go to college in Utah; you don't need to kiss ass to your home mountain if you have expectations to leave the area. I don't understand why you didn't move out of PA if you love skiing so much. Yup. you've done plenty with your astounding life. i'm done flaming this thread, ski can go on ranting about my life Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup. you've done plenty with your astounding life. i'm done flaming this thread, ski can go on ranting about my life I have property less than 30 minutes from Jackson Hole where we're slowly building a place. I also own a home at the Jersey shore. Out of almost 8000 post, 4000 are not about you, Rob, or your friends. I don't kiss anyone's ass, but I do happen to love skiing my home mountain. The Poconos are a great place to live and we're just hours from my favorite type of skiing, which is New England hardpack. We aren't rich like Rob and some other people on this message board, but I was able to semi-retire seven years ago by living off of residuals from years as a combat photographer in a number of wars. And now it's clear you don't know shit nor do I care about your life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordan, we agree about the 3 rails on the headwall and that will be taken care of later in the week. As far as the rail garden goes, we did plan on putting a pretty cool rail garden in towards the end of the run. If you had ridden Sno last week you would have noticed we kept putting features in and the groomers would have to take them out because it was too thin in that area and they needed the snow to keep the trail open. The way we have been making snow around the clock with this present cold streak we should be able to add alot more features and give the park a real nice shape. thanks for the input.

Ski Posted January 22, 2008 Report Share Posted January 22, 2008 really? I thought he was some kind of reporter in some third world country and was assaulted and collected from some one and is living off of that. I guess thats not true? Collected off who, Rob? The guys who jumped me in Panama? No, Rob, the pictures I smuggled out of the men beating a boy for handing out anti-Noriega leaflets made some money, but I lost thousands worth of camera gear that day. Being a successful news photographer for a photo agency entails building a large portfolio of work from a lot of different places and hoping you get consistent future sales. When someone does a story or writes a book about Salvadoran politics of the mid-80's, Ortega's Sandanista revolution, the Vietnamese pullout of Cambodia, the invasion and arrest of Manuel Noriega, political unrest in Haiti, or a few other geo-political events, some of my work has a chance of being used on a one-time basis. It is a horrible way to make a living. Wars are mostly fought in places that are 98 degrees and everything you eat or drink makes you sick half the time you're in country. And a lot of contract deals are incentive based, much like a salesman or waiters. Worse of all, journalists are a target more than ever and no money is worth having your head cut off on video. It is in no way a glamorous or enviable career and it's filled with a lot of scumbags---which I closely resembled. I am, however, very grateful that it's given me the opportunity to spend a lot of time with my youngest---something I missed out on with my oldest.
