big mario Posted April 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 At the top of the run, grab your balls with one hand and beat your chest with the other like a wild silverback gorilla. Tell the mountain "I'm coming, do not f@$k with me." that worked really well for me today. If this weather pattern doesn't change, this may have been my last day of the season, it is getting really thin and ugly up there mario Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattj Posted April 9, 2012 Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 I can confirm that Mario's technique at the top of each chair was a little unorthodox but achieved results. His eight bounce euro-carve on Spillway was a sight to behold and will provide much work for the groomers trying to fill in the divots. Matt The Tribe having a rest - Ice, Big Mario & Teach.

ice Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 Good call gentlemen. Lovey was riding like February (LAST February) today. A little on the soft side, but very gratifying. T.Stoughton, Arneburner, and the infamous Snowman were all on the snow today ripping monsterous trenches in the soft groom. Tomorrow should be stellar, make some turns for me I'll be back out on Sat and Sun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dusty Bottle Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 I'm in for Wednesday. Gotta burn my tickets while conditions are good. I think you may be right about conditions. What's your ETA? I may make a rare mid-week appearance. James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExcelsiorTheFathead Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 I'll be there well before open, taking one of the first chairs up #1. Despite the wacky, impossible temperature readings on Loveland's weather station web page, other data indicates that it got up to 41 degrees today, so there must have been a little thawing. But it just can't be icy tomorrow, can it? I'm hoping for hero. I'll be certain to be flowing through the Loveland Nexus of the Universe, so it shouldn't be hard to find me.

ExcelsiorTheFathead Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 An excellent day. Temps started at just around freezing at open then gradually went up under a few clouds and generally low winds (for Loveland). A few places had a little thaw/freeze crustiness at open, but in general it was all smooth and slightly soft with great grip. Firecut was not groomed at all. We did the regular routine on #2 and #6, also tearing up Richard's. By 12:30 that squish-release vibratory effect of slushifying snow was apparent. I left by 1:30 with the whole hill going soft. Monodude and Dusty Bottle on #6 with Roulette in the Background PCDenver on Roulette, back in the fold after being whipped by carving nuns.

ExcelsiorTheFathead Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 Lifted from the Summit Daily: --------- For the remainder of the season, Loveland Ski Area will offer discount lift tickets to anyone that presents a 2011-12 season pass from another mountain. “We would like to invite season pass holders from other ski areas to come see what Loveland is all about at a discounted rate,” said John Sellers, Loveland's marketing director. “If your mountain has closed for the season but you still want to get a few spring days in, just show your season pass at the ticket window and you can purchase an (adult) lift ticket for just $30.” The discounted rate is $16 off the ticket window price. Snow can come throughout spring, like the 17 inches the mountain received in the recent storm. Leading up to closing day, May 6, plenty of spring events are on the calendar, including live music on the weekends. “Put that expired pass to good use and extend your season a few more weeks,” Sellers said. --------- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
