Worst Ski Area Slogans

[davidhowland14]

In short, what are the worst marketing slogans of ski areas?

I nominate Ragged Mountain: Nothing Close Can Even Come Close.

 

[GrilledSteezeSandwich]

Touch The Sky..Blue Mountain..
Is your Bush Sweet..Sugarbush..

Is your Bush Sweet..Sugarbush..

There is no way that's real...

Ski The Crotch. It's Hairy.

Saw this at Whiteface. Didn't understand what they were telling me to do.
Should I make it look easy? Should I style it? Should my style be easy?
I couldn't help but imagine a bunch of dust farting suits sitting around a tiger maple board room table thinking it was gonna be the hippest shit ever...
Then i saw it again at Sugarbush last week. I honestly just don't get what easy styling is.
That and the SugarBush adds for "powdercat" skiing ring so strongly of serious gaping the I laugh out loud every time i hear it on the radio. You go CAT skiing. Hopefully you ski powder. Powdercats! WTF!

Perhaps it was stolen from a hair salon?

I think that's Burton.

+1 on the cat ads.

It's the right color and the graphic for board parks is on the top
damn skiers....

 

[skiing is life]

jiminy peak slogan is "you belong here"

blandford ski area slogan is "you gotta love this place"

 

[campgottagopee]

MRG

"Ski it if you can"

Whatever--anybody can ski it, just some look better doing it than others

 

[deadheadskier]

I really don't get Waterville's Slogan

'Love'

:???:

 

[Telemechanic]

Loon tried "As it should be" a while back. It was too much of a double edged sword and only lasted a season. It was a handy slogan to utter anytime something went wrong around the mountain.

"Easy Style It" I believe is NSAAs header for the terrain park responsibilty code. Its meant to emulate slang. As far as what you're supposed to do, any of JDs suggestions should work. It started popping up the same time as the fourth trail marker for freestyle terrain the orange "pill".

Anything that has to do with okemo. I like the mountain but I think the slogans okemblows. :smash:

Easystylit is part of Smartstyle which is the skiers responsibility code for the terrain park. I actually give Smartstyle seminars at Blue mountain. PM me if you are interested in attending..Besides Eastystylit you need to look before you leap..respect gets respect..call your drop and check yourself before you wreck yourself..

That's all great...but what does it mean to "easy style it"? Maybe some pictures would help?
When I used to hit the park it was...
1) Don't be a Dumb A$$
2) Stay the #u@k off the landings
3) Don't be a Dumb A$$

Camelback's "We've Got the Runs"...it ran on billboards all over the place.

And the marketing director, DaveK, said he did it on purpose...he thought it was hilarious. I think he lives in Arizona, now.

Totally generic, but still a disturbing image:
