Replying to So today I talked to a RCR rep...........
So today I finally got threw and was able to talk to a RCR representative, and got the chance to ask them what the hell they thought they were doing. All she responded with over and over again was they were adressing a concern that they see to keep their customers safe while riding at their fine resorts. When I sugested a park pass system, she sipmly said that that would not adress the need in the same way, and that there is simply too great of a risk. Then when I asked if this was a move to please the insurance companys because their contract was coming up for renual she had no comment. The she procided to inform me that they were talking industry leading steps, and that such other resorts such as whistler (thats right WHISTLER) were talking about taking the same steps towards removing such features from their parks. She also informed me that this was a permiment step that RCR was taking and that they do not plan on reversing thier actions, also that this is the kind of thing that I am to expect to see more and more in the coming years from more and more resorts all over the place. Is this what our sport has come to? Have we come to the point where at the first sign of trouble we simply pull the plug and stop our progression right there? I dont know about the rest of you guys, but as long as this bullshit keeps up from RCR Il be spending alot more time riding at sunshine.
