Mt Snow Thread

Nice - will plan to be there for that.
Hitting Okemo tomorrow.

We might head up there tomorrow for a change of pace also. Berkshire East also a possibility this week with Indy.

Got 2 laps on it already. 1st lap we did the full "tour de new stuff" Sundance lift down the new snowmaking on shooting star and then up the new Sunbrook lift.

Like the faster ride! Much less of a drop off than the previous top ramp too.

Tons of snowmaking going on all over the mtn too!

 

[jaytrem]

Both new lifts are a bust, no lines at either one today. Looks like no parking rail at Sunbrook for now. They did have that on the plans. That's okay, with all the delays on new lifts, it's nice that ours are up and running.

Great day, trees skied much better than expected. No lines except for the bubble.

Noticed yesterday in a few places that it appeared that they are evaluating some SMI Grizzly low E stick guns adjacent to some of their standard go to air/water guns, the HKD Impluse. In particluar near the bottom of Beartrap

Will be curious to see if they start to add more of those into their fleet over time or not. Regardless of what guns were hooked into the system yesterday, the SMI Grizzly, The HKD Impulse, the Snow Logic DV4 or the fan guns, the whales being made were BIG! Heck, a couple of the whales down near the finish shack on Charlie's Chase were easily taller than the roofline of the finish shack!

Roller Coaster whales are also crazy big. I figured they wouldn't open it like that. Unfortunately I was correct, they were knocking them down this afternoon.

The Grizzlies are good. Not as good as the Impulse but at a grand cheaper per head sometimes close enough works...I think you'll start to see more of them.

100% fault of the filmer, ran into the guy from behind and in a slow zone no less, not sure why the filmer would post this evidence of their guilt ?!?

Yup, no doubt on that one. Both were going pretty fast for a slow zone. Ski the trees, they're safer!

 

[ThatGuy]

Yeah guy filming is an idiot. Also those are some nice trees at that part of Long John.

I love how towards the end of the video, they each scream at the other about how they have an Epic Pass so therefore they are an expert

 

[cdskier]

I don't understand the filming guy trying to say he didn't see the guy he hit. The guy he hit was skiing a pretty consistent (albeit very wide) line. Love how he tries to claim crashing into another person is a normal part of skiing...

Especially for smaller places who aren't gonna go Klik anyway or wouldn't be buying the R5 stick...

Not that this would apply to Snow, they can get what they want. The question for them is do they want the air savings in cold weather + taller towers + slight performance edge + parts commonality badly enough? 15% off is a fairly enticing deal.

Yep, the other guy was literally in the view during entire video... Just gotta put a blame on someone else I guess(reminded me of an idiot who would shoot too close to me at the local range while I was practicing with my new P365 9mm luger from https://gritrsports.com/shooting/firearms/pistols/9mm-luger/ . Got a few burns from his shells ejecting over the barrier...)

He did seem to give up on blaming the other guy pretty quickly. Guess he realized that wasn't gonna fly. Guy in front was kinda douchy skiing. Edge to edge GS turns on Long John? It's allowed, but you're just looking to get hit.

 

[Smellytele]

They're both to blame they chose to ski at Mount Snow.

 

[Newpylong]

Plenty of good skiing there.
