SKIERS ARE GAY FAGS!! SNOWBOARDERS ARE COOLER!!

This is basically what our mountain thinks about skiing.Ok, so i was recently informed that my mountain next year is having two of their peaks PARK ONLY. I was very stoked on hearing this, until i was informed that it will be SNOWBOARDERS ONLY!! This is when i took matters into my own hands and wrote this email to a guy from Intrawest who owns our mountain.....

Hello there, My name is Jason Evans, and i am 17 years old, and a freeskier at Mountaincreek. I am one among the many freeskiers at Mountaincreek. Our sport is becoming more and more popular each year. From the first time i clicked into my first twin tip skis three years ago, there was only a handful of us. But since then, there are more than i can count to sliding the rails, and hitting the jumps at creek all season long. I was informed that next year, South and Bear peak will be all park, and i was very excited on hearing this news becuase i thought "Great, no more taking "old betsy" all the way to granite then ski over to vernon for the park there." Then i heard some very disturbing news, that South will be for snowboarders only. To me, and to the many other freeskiers at Mountaincreek, this is devastating. Where are we supposed to enojoy ourselves now at Mountaincreek? With no more park for us to ski, we will most likely not go to Mountaincreek anymore. I am on a skiing internet forum, and in the forum there are a total of 208 freeskiers who ski at Mountaincreek. If this is true about park only at south, and only snowboarders allowed there, what will the 208 of us do? Thank you for reading this letter of concern. Cannot wait to hear back from you. Thank you.
- Jason Evans
What else is there i can do about this? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

while that's easy, and possible it's, at least in my opinion, the principle of the thing.

True, but that's like Alta not letting boarders in...they don't have to if they don't want to...it'd probably be harder for a boarder to poach Alta though.

If this is true I think that calls for a southeastern NS takeover, just poach it with a crapload of kids.

i'm on the west coast, so i wouldn't be able to, but i like the idea of the take over. What the fuck could they do if several hundred skiers took the park over?? I think it would definitely open some eyes. There shouldn't be a battle between skiers and snowboarders, we obviously have grown our individual sports from each other so why fight?

we just had a bad year this year, next year the park is gunna be much bigger, and alot better. And if it wasn't for the jiblab guys at creek, u wouldn't have all those nice jibs at Big Boulder. Show some respect

this is true, but Alta has always been a skiers mt. and the bird is right there. It's not like one season they suddenly decided boarders aren't allowed. Say mt creek decided boarding wasn't allowed, that would be a bit of an outrage too. Being a skier I wouldn't mind as much but I do have boarder friends so it would still be an issue.

Oh, I agree.
However, just like Alta still won't let boarders ride, sometimes area management won't listen to reason or be made to think anything other than what they've already decided on in their own minds. So in case his mountain doesn't wise up and open the park to skiers and boarders alike, poaching is second option, people have been doing it for years, hell I poached the 'Snowboards only' park when I was just a wee lad, hitting those jumps was so fun.

I'd say get a hard copy of a petition, and get everyone you know of to sign it, and bring that to one of the head hanchos there rather than email... cuz theres always a delete button 4 those. I'd also explain how beneficial it would be money wise if they would attract skiers rather than ban them.

that is what i have heard. and that Mountain Creek is trying to keep it underwraps until they have all the details worked out. I dont think they are going to have a "snowboarders only" park, that is just shooting themselves in the foot.

reliable sources. (2)  look, nothing is written in concrete over this.  MC knows they had some problems last season and what you are hearing is talk on how they are going to try and please everyone.

That sucks. At our club, the pipe is always being hiked by boarders, and if they see a skier theyl go tell them to get out. Once i threw one into the pipe. It was really funny. Dropped in right beside him and boosted. But actually, thats the biggest bs i have heard all day, and ive heard alot of bs today....

Creek already has a park pass in place. Btw, this is just a rumor. It was put to rest in the Creek cult.

Hey man......watch it before you talk about ALL snowboarders....I'm a snowboarder and I think skiing is dope (NS style.....non-gaper). So when you say snowboarding is for fags, you are doing exactly what most snowboarders do to skiiers.

that sounds very uncharacteristic of intrawest. i wonder if you just heard an evil rumor. intrawest is one of the few companies that keeps a very close eye on the numbers their parks generate. not to mention, just about every mtn they own has a killer park- mammoth, blackcomb, winter park, etc. i'm sure they're well aware that skiers make up alot of their park revenue.
