Great weather, even greater company. Bumps were a bit off but i'm not gonna complain. Group was large and at any point in time it was powbmps, reefer, MrMagic, MogulQueen, Mike, Mondeo, Ozzy, powbmps friend Jason and eventually Ellen from the sundown clinic and then Frank (the runner up at Bump or Bust III) and Julian. Escapade has the best bumps on the hill. Ozzy was on a corn harvest so he was loving downdraft and some poaches on skyeburst (always get those trails confused) There was a decent line on Skyehawk (again ?) headwall and again on lower supe. those were reeeaaally deep though and very walled up. the course on conclusion is actually still there but its really really short. i didnt try it. lots of work to get over there for a such a short shot.

Dipper woods are very skiable and did that once. Nice line on double dipper under the chair.

all in all a great day with some very chill people. Ozzy must know everybody on that hill. Everytime we got on the gondi, he knew whomever was riding up with us..... I guess skiing 100+ days does that. Great skiing with everyone again, hopefully i'll see some of you at sugarbush next sunday.

got some vid, it'll be up as soon as vimeo does its thing. Ozzy, i didnt have one clip of you. you need to hang back sometimes bro!

Didnt suck Friday - forgot my camera - but really wish they day canyon lift spinning....sucked to have to keep on riding the box up.....snowdown would have been nice too....but a great day overall......legs are feeling it today.

Not a bumper (I ride), but have to agree with the whining - bumps on superstar wernt even close to what I've seen over past 15 years.....although the lower left bumps were starting to get some play as things softened up midday......SkyeHawk, while short, had some decent bumps when they dropped the rope midday.

Off to get some lawn work in before the rain later this weekend....

I would agree with that. Always nice to meet/ski with new people. Couple of old school (deep & soft) bumps on Superstar. Some tough lines for sure. Ozzy and MogulQueen always looked smooth though. Why did it seem like MQ was always waiting for everyone at the bottom :razz:?

(I swear Jason's poles are about 60" long :lol:)

the bumps looked at lot better than I expected from all the talk on the forum. I wish I could have been there, this whole work thing is starting to get in the way of all my fun.

yup was there. amazing i didn't run into the group ... skied friday-sunday. friday the best day. kinda cobbled together pieces of runs. escapade best. thought catwalk was prime. also though it was short, conclusion was sweet. excellent lines. worth multiple hits. lower left supe. nature walk to snowden for low rider which surprisingly was still pretty good though a little thin bottom third.
