Now that is some emasculating sh*t for those guys watching from the lifts on their apline skis. To be dusted by an Asian chick in a bunny suit on telemark skis. lol.

Gleb Posted January 26, 2006 Report Share Posted January 26, 2006 ya i figured the bus is a pain in the ass. I have my car here so we just pile 4 ppl in and go. We split the gas like $3 a person so not bad. I usually don't pay for gas because it is my car. Those are the best days, its usually a kick ass time. can't wait for friday.

John Gilmour Posted January 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2006 But Willy- You just miss the crap hours on the snow -since the snow is thrashed after a day of riding from 9-4. The first trail to be re-groomed (typically conifer), doesn't get groomed and open until about 6:15-6:30 anyhow. Intermediate trails are groomed after that and usually Ralphs Run (beginner trail) is after conifer....so it doesn't matter if you start sliding down the hill at 7:00 taking the bus is a no brainer. ________ VIDEO REVIEW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Gilmour Posted December 8, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2006 I used to buy those cars back in the 80's. One thing ...of course...there is always something going on in the head of a desperate to carve snowboarder with no cash. Can I make this deal happen again? Well likely- the card comes with a book with some tickets to Magic that you turn in. But the $10 off thing are likely boxes on the back of the card that get marked off. I being the carfeul boyscout with neosporin, bandaids and alcohol prep pads 1st aid kit, realized that an alcohol prep pad would instantly erase the ball point pen mark made on the back of the card- if it was done immediately after the mark was made..... hmmm "like new". uuhh.. gonzo stain remover and Shoout spray works for permanent markers. ahh the life of the penniless, carless, snowboard carving college student. not that I ever did that... ________ Easy vape vaporizer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dano Posted December 8, 2006 Report Share Posted December 8, 2006 Nice tip on the pen marks...reminds me of the lighter fluid on the lift ticket trick to get the bail off in the parking lot for resale... ;) Goo gone works too. BTW, you can order the discount card w/ 2 free tix from here. ( I got Gunstock ) http://www.rideandskine.com/htmls/shop.html Also in Boston area, Kelly dealerships are giving away ragged season passes worth $815 with car purchases, so lots of non-wintersports people are selling them for cheap ( I saw $250 ) on CL and in other classifieds. Ragged sort of sucks but I'd buy a SEASON pass for $100-$150... PLEASE SNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
