Gleb Posted December 17, 2007 Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 first day will be tomorrow! Anyone else going to be out there? Enzo, looking forward to riding with you this season.

polaris Posted December 17, 2007 Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 JD - Glad you "turned back" on Sunday. Although I'm not buying the "too much traffic on a Sunday morning in a snowstorm at 6 am" excuse. Turns out that loon dropped the gondi cable off a tower in high winds yesterday morning. People were stuck for over an hour. Probably would have been us. Anyone up for some hooky on Thursday? I could go to either Loon or WV. WV has the better discount for my step-daugther. Although, I'd love to hit the south mtn, just to check things out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enzo Posted December 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 A friend at work told me that after the lifts shut down they threatened arrest for anyone hiking for turns. Here's the question of the day...if you're stuck on the gondi for ova an hour with JD, do you risk injury and jump?? I'm 50/50 on the end of the week. I need to see how I recover after some workouts this week. If I do go, I'm running the JV squad ova on the WB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Petabuilt and I are heading to Cannon on 12/26, 12/27 on the snow somewhere else, this weekend is out too many holiday parties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gleb Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 overslept by 5 hours or so on monday which is good for anyone on the road because i would've probably fallen asleep at the wheel from the lack of sleep during finals. Today was awesome! conditions are as good now as they were at the peak of last year. My skill(if you can call it that) defintly deteriorated a bit. Counter-rotation was a huge prob. Only causualty today was my mp3 player on the first run. If anyone sees a white zune burried in the snow, let me know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Pushee Posted December 20, 2007 Report Share Posted December 20, 2007 Finally got a chance to hit the South Peak area at Loon today. I Cruiser. Cruiser is a long wide blue with a few drops and bends and islands to add character. The views are fantastic too. Conditions today were primo.

Gleb Posted December 20, 2007 Report Share Posted December 20, 2007 Cruiser sucked so much on tuesday. They barely groomed it. Glad they made it better because south peak was desolate when we were there. I'll be up there tomorrow (thursday) teaching a kid how to ride an alpine board with a few other people. Anyone else going to be there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polaris Posted December 21, 2007 Report Share Posted December 21, 2007 I hit WV yesterday. They had about 8-10 of fresh snow. Looks like they will be nearly 100% open by Saturday. Looks like I'll be at Ragged on the 24th. I could hit Loon on Sunday, but the weather is looking unfavorable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manch_mike Posted December 26, 2007 Report Share Posted December 26, 2007 Petabuilt and I cut up Cannon today. nice & firm, minus the snowcat ridges it was great carving snow. they did a great job grooming the boiler plate... Profile was the moneymaker and my fat legs are now burned out, ova. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MR. JOHN DEERE ! Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 i have company in from colorado so bring extra advil!! let me know via cell phone. probably a sl or allmtn deck kind of day with da crowds. also willing to head up to cannon! dth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gleb Posted December 29, 2007 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 don't even bother with loon tomorrow. today the crowds were insane. Tomorrow, the wait will be like 15 minutes for each run. For you JD, the 5 minute walk would be worth it, but for anyone driving more than an hour, just wait till next weekend. Saw like 6 carvers out today. One guy in a yellow jacket with green pants was teaching a kid...anyone from here? I'll be there on the 2nd. tear it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willywhit Posted December 29, 2007 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 Gleb, Mt Snow was a little crowded yesterday but got plenny runs in zippin thru the singles line.First day out, nice and sore today. How's the snow at Loon after the rain ? witnessed a near riot at the quad yesterday when they closed the lift at 4:00 with 100 people waiting for last run. pretty funny :lol: christmas vacation madness :rolleyes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gleb Posted December 29, 2007 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 i think it snowed out there today. I can only imagine the riot that a bunch of skiers and park monkeys would cause. I bet the snow will be pretty good on monday, but i wont be there till wednesday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
