Has anyone got their passes pulled for going to fast. I got mine pulled by a patroler going up to shooting star. The guy was a dick too. He told me that I would get my pass back after I watched this vid on Mtn saftey but now its gone for a week. so im kinda madd, anyone else?

that sucks, i have been yelled at and waved down many times but never stop for them

they are always at the bottom of steep sections before flat areas that you need speed to get across. it doesnt make any sense

it may sound bad but their strictness recently is mainly due to the death a couple weeks ago, they think speed is a big part of the danger

they've really gone over the edge. i saw a patroller yank the pass of this tiny little girl in a poles-stright-up tuck. she started crying. it was sad.

cuz i was going down this hill that you have to bomb or else you have to walk up another up hill section and thats what happened because there was a crashin front of me and i had to slow down. In hind sight i should have just ran i know i couldve gotten away. learned my lesson.

ya, which is a funny thing to say because if they made better parks, the parks would be safer too. haha, so they are worried about some safety, but not the important safety

ya i got my ticket pulled a couple weeks ago, but u know what the great thing is? they (the person who check for ticket or pass) sometimes do not check me or rarely ever check racers cause they already know that we have a ticket or pass. and i do not have to worry about pass getting pulled because i get tickets instead. what i have is a pnsa elite pass and its only for racers with certain points.

next time they try to stop me, i will not stop for them i will just keep on going.

I did get my pass yanked today on the way to hrm, I had to take this fucking ghey safety class. I had a nice discussion, however, about them going into the park and yanking passes for people being stupid in there.

I've had zero problem with patrollers at Bachelor, in fact they are always complimenting me on my skis.
