So I take it Superstar will be groomed on May 1?

It won't be groomed on April 22!

Dang Red Bull!!!!!!

 

[Highway Star]

Is this a true slalom, or a rec. slalom, or more of a GS?

 

[GrilledSteezeSandwich]

They should cancel the race and give HighwayStar all the prizes..it would save everybody alot of time!!! I'm sure the course is gonna be really offset to seperate the HighwayGnars from everybody else..mandatory turns..

A definite step in the right direction.

Might I suggest that calling it "May 1st Slalom" is more appropriate? "May Day" creates an image of Moscow and tanks rumbling through Red Square.

So......no bumps on Superstar closing day?

How could he possibly know that? He's marketing, not ops. ...and he doesn't have a crystal ball. They might have to push snow around to provide a contiguous way down. It could be below freezing with concrete.

He could...ask the ops guys? Isn't the point of PR to provide a single point of contact? You know, facilitate the relations with the public?

I may have gone a little overboard on the sarcasm there.

Alright, settle down.

That seems oddly appropriate....

 

[GrilledSteezeSandwich]

50 pesos says HighWayStar is good for at least a Bronze!!!

 

[RootDKJ]

Hmmm...I think someone who is a top 30 skier at Killington can get a bronze.

Nice to see K headed BACK in the right direction.

Looks like Powdr finally stopped the bleeding and apparently the bandages will be removed slowly but surely. Kudos to the new K for listening to their core customer base (I think).

Yeah....at least until the security guards show up at this event also.:angry:

 

[SkiDork]

minor nit - Red Bull for 12 and under might be a wee bit too much caffeine in their systems - I can imagine someone like Iceman talking a mile a minute running around bouncing off walls! LOL!

Just sit back and let it happen. It will happen. It will take time, but it will happen. Patience grasshopper. Patience.
