Gtanner Posted January 17, 2007 Report Share Posted January 17, 2007 Ok guys, Sounds like we may be able to set up a mini-session. Please post with your availability or opinions for riding together on the Feb 10/11 weekend at Sunshine, Louise or Norquay. We could all bring our quivers and trade or exchange boards if people would like. If someone has a better idea for a name, let us know. Now since I live in the great-white-oil-filled-north, it will be tough for me to organize this, but I will be more than happy to help the day of as well as get the ball rolling. -Gord Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fleaman Posted January 18, 2007 Report Share Posted January 18, 2007 I'm in too. How are the crowds at sunshine on the weekend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riceball Posted January 18, 2007 Report Share Posted January 18, 2007 I'll already be at Bomber's SES that weekend... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Gendzwill Posted January 18, 2007 Report Share Posted January 18, 2007 I won't be there on the 10/11, but I'll be there from the 12th through the 15th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allee Posted January 18, 2007 Report Share Posted January 18, 2007 How are the crowds at sunshine on the weekend? Sunshine's a big hill so it can absorb a lot of people, they all tend to spread out a lot. Wawa and Divide can get busy, Goats Eye/Wolverine never is nor is Teepee. Divide and Goats Eye have the best runs for intermediate/advanced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Gendzwill Posted January 18, 2007 Report Share Posted January 18, 2007 The worst part about a crowded day at Sunshine is the parking lot. Get there early so you aren't parked 3 km out on some lookout point. Once you clear the Gondola, it's pretty good even on the worst days.

Neil Gendzwill Posted January 22, 2007 Report Share Posted January 22, 2007 Rob, you around any of these dates? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Stevens Posted January 22, 2007 Report Share Posted January 22, 2007 The 10th to 11th or 12th to 15th? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Gendzwill Posted January 23, 2007 Report Share Posted January 23, 2007 Either. I'm only around the 12th to the 15th, but the other people in this thread seem to like the weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gtanner Posted January 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2007 I'm thinking the 11th at Sunshine, likely to have less people than Saturday. Unfortunately, I'm only around for the weekend at the moment. Monday is unlikely, but I'll check look into it. -Gord Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Gendzwill Posted January 23, 2007 Report Share Posted January 23, 2007 I fly to Vancouver on the 9th so I can be wacking people over the head with sticks on the 10th, then fly to Calgary on the 11th where my family will pick me up on their way through to Canmore. Then on the 16th we all drive to Edmontonchuk for another of my daughter's Irish dancing competitions. It's a full week. I guess what I'm saying is there's no way for me to be on the snow on the 11th, although if all goes well I'll be enjoying a beverage in the condo that evening.

Allee Posted February 5, 2007 Report Share Posted February 5, 2007 I'm going up on the weekend. Given the lack of new snow of late I'd prefer Sunshine, anyone else going to be around? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Gendzwill Posted February 5, 2007 Report Share Posted February 5, 2007 Like I said, I'll only be around during the week. We'll be at Sunshine on Monday, I expect. The number in Canmore is 678-6136. FRS is channel 7, code 22. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll update tomorrow. How many do we have for Sunday and or Monday??? -Gord Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fleaman Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 I will be arriving in Banff on thursday evening. I can be there both sunday or monday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Gendzwill Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 Let's meet Monday at Sunshine. How about 10:00 in front of the main lodge? I'll be all in black with either an orange-flamed Coiler or a black Tanker 2K. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueB Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 I fly to Vancouver on the 9th so I can be wacking people over the head with sticks on the 10th, then fly to Calgary on the 11th where my family will pick me up on their way through to Canmore. Sounds like a busy schedulle... Would you have enough time for a bit of shredding at Cypress? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Stevens Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 Monday at 10 am, eh? I'll see you there in black and red. Board TBA, depending on snow. If it doesn't snow, I'm going to be hardbooting it for the first time in many seasons, so look the fcuk out... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Gendzwill Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 Sounds like a busy schedulle... Would you have enough time for a bit of shredding at Cypress?I won't even have my boards with me as I already have to fly with all my kendo gear. My wife is picking me up at the Calgary airport, she'll have all my stuff for playing in the snow.And Rob, except for a couple of days at the local hill, Monday will be my first day out this year.

BlueB Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 Boards and bindings are easy - I can gear up whole army. Boots are a bit more difficult... Only if you fit in 26~26.5 LeMans or some of the bigger ski boots I've got. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Gendzwill Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 It just doesn't work out, the whole weekend is jammed with either hitting my friends over the head with sticks or drinking with them. But thanks, anyways! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
