Would you ski Gunbarrel at Sundown if it were open through April?

Defiantly, and I would even be open to the idea of my season pass ending April 1, and then having to pay as you go for the next month. Or small fees (say $100) to extend the pass till the end of April. For me the local option would be great in the spring. With all the yard work and other spring time stuff its hard to get up North on the weekends. It would be awesome to drive 30 minutes to ski 4 hours, and then still have time to do stuff around the yard and house in the same day.

Voted no---not because it's Sundown, come that time in spring I'm full bore in golf tourney mode.

Seems to me you better figure out the flat stuff first, Mr. benchwarmer. ;) :razz:

You deserve that after all of your ball busting I endured this year, nemesis. :lol:
That's a low blow. If I would've known throwing a couple of pitch calls would have had me tied with Bart whereas a skip rope and a double sprister (with double pole daffy to boot) didn't count for anything, things would've been different.

Nope...I'd ski at Mt. Snow through April if I hadn't busted my collarbone. No way I'd drive south except for my ocasional night skiing at the Beast.

I guess they'd have to make a lot more snow. Greg sent me this pic of Gunny this morning:

one thing that i noticed was how spoiled we were with the length of that. the bumps at okemo were nice but other than big bang, you wondered where the rest were. :razz:

i did blackout and sels without stopping and the only reason i stopped on ledges was the line kinda went away where they had kickers previously.

t2b on gunny would've been a leg burner for sure. never came close to it myself.

Stinger is gonna be rad, but I don't think we'll have it for very long before they switch to Temptor.

I agree. But it will be something new to play with. Plus we can get some mad steezy air in the park after the bump run.
