The anti-seeded mogul crowd...

[Greg]

...wouldn't know a good bump line if it fell on them. Not sure how that could be possible, but you get the point. :lol:

The seeded mogul crowd have issues with diveristy and need everything cookie cutter to ski it.
Varity is the spice of life son.

Yes I bit at this hook, line and sinker.

Just because it's made by a cat doesn't mean it's uniform or cookie cutter. But you're right, we totally had to stick to the groomers when we were at MRG last week...

Like boobs. Natural is better even if they're a little saggy sometimes. But if you don't have any, artificial is a nice way to go.

Sorry, I spit seeds----just not part of the swallowing croud

nah, nevermind....

Seeded moguls are great training for up and coming mogul skiiers, so I approve.

Love both, but good natural ones only occur where there is consistent large amounts of natural snowfall and significant skier traffic. 90% of resorts in the east need to seed bumps to offer a consistent quality mogul experience.

Man made airs aside, I wonder when the last World Cup Mogul competition was held on a natural bumped trail. I bet it's been over a decade.

Natural terrain is just funner. Seeded bumps have their place for places where good bumps are never going to form. I'll take big natural bumps on hardscrabble any day of the week

'94 Olympics were seeded.

By the way I found out last week the bump skiing in Telluride is WAYYYY underrated. Those are the kind of bumps I like, created by skiers that can ski well and from nice lines on something longer than a 172

Bingo. You also have to have quality skier traffic to form good natural moguls and thats not always possible at a smaller mountain like the one I ski. I find the flow to be much better in a nice seeded line. Bumps with 5 yards of ice between them are no fun.

I was at Deer Valley the week after the SLC Olympics and I can tell you those bumps were seeded and were nasty.

Yup, all the regular MRG folks suck You never see a good bump skier at Stowe Just wusses skiing OL for the majority of the season when the BMMC course isn't set up :lol: :flame:

Where's the groomer stoke?

 

[thorski]

Seeded bumps are taking up too much space at sundown. Space that could be used for a good halfpipe.

[bvibert]

This is groomer stoke, they should be used exclusively to seed bump runs.

Ahhhh I can breath better now. :beer:
