So i work for vail but i didnt get that job until after I bought a colorado pass(370) and vail said I would get a full refund. After attempting to get a refund they tell me I am going to be charged for everyday I went to A-basin, so basically I was only gonna get like 50 bucs back so I decided to keep the pass in case a broke friend ever needed it. So my girlfriends friend is in town and broke so i let him use it at breck under the condition if he gets caught I didnt give it to him. So of course he goes out of bounds right next to the hut on peak ten and gets caught cause there are like 7 patrollers there and drops my name right away, now because of this kid i cant ride for 3 weeks(unless i pay). I geuss its my fault for lettin him use it but i still think the ski patroller was a dick, what do you guys think?

^I'm with him. That kid's a total ass. He could have easily said something to cover you but he took you down on purpose. Dumber than my avatar monkey, that.

if that happened in mammoth, your friend would have gotten arrested, fined $400, and you would have had to pay 200$ justto get your pass back if they let you

when I used my roomies pass 5 years ago it worked fine until I walked up with no hat/goggles. Then they took it, called the police, pass gone for season, made me buy a lift ticket and give to them to shred up in front of my face and took all my gear.
That was the one year out of the last 7 that I did not have my own co pass.
I had to buy my roomie lift tickets for the rest of the season (1) and no pass sale was eligable for either of us.
This was at Keystone - my stupidity.

What are you doing letting some dude that is a friend of your girlfriend use your shit anyway?? Tell him to find his own way.

Thats stupid. Here in Europe you can ski wherever you want, and if you die or get injured its your own damn fault.

patrollers just do their jobs. if you hurt yourself out of bounds they have to lug a damn sled out there to get your stupid ass. take the blame that you deserve and then go skiing. that guy should of kept your name out of the situation totally though.

You are lucky you didn't lose your job.
Title of thread should have read" Pass suspended for 3 weeks because me and my friend are morons."

your asshole buddy was pulling the ultimate dick move....ducking a rope in front of a patroller in colorado is a pretty serious offense. People have died doing that and they take it seriously, very seriosuly....next time don't be so quick to "kick down" your pass to any old fool...
don't come down on the patrollers, they are the ones who would have to haul is dead body out of the terrain trap or carry his broken ass to the hospital if he got hurt.
bottom line - your fault for giving him the pass, his fault for being a douche and the Colorado Ski Area Association for not embracing the open boundary policy so many other resorts have

Killington is my home mtn, and lately (yesterday) the foreign pass checkers are getting hardcore about checking stuff
I was in line to get on the Gondola, one ski in each hand. I show the liftie my pass (rip open velcro pocket on analog pants) and he makes me take my hat and goggles completely off.
Forget the fact its 20 degrees...but ive gotta stumble to the damn gondola with a handfull of crap (poles, ski in each hand, hat and goggles)
I dont agree with giving your buddy your pass, or using someone elses, just cause its an easy way to get nailed. But some mountains are getting a little too over the top on verifying its actually you

there's steep laws like that in CO too, but they usually don't inforce them to the full extent.

Your lucky they didnt take it for the season, they wouldnt give my friend his pass back unless he was going to press charges on the person he gave it to. Also don't the lifties get $50 per pass they take?

but really the moral of this story is ski in europe where grown up adults aren't treated like babies and YOU decide where you wanna ski or not, not the ski patrol.

They took your gear? I'm sceptical on that front...
Oh, and you're friend is a tool for ducking a rope with someone elses pass. And for ducking a rope at all. Be glad he didn't get caught in a slide.
