According to their site.  Just thought I'd let you guys know.

Question: They have twin tips, right, like is there gonna be a line booth? I've never been to a demo day. I'm probably going and I really wanna demo Elizabeths. They seem like the opposite of my chronics and if I like them I would pick up a pair eventually. Stiff and thin vs fat and soft, you know. I went on line's site because when they had that news thing with big time and small time or whatever stuff like this would be there. Maybe I'll PM lineskis on here or post in the line cult. Blue's site doesn't say who's gonna be there.

don't hold me to this, but line, k2, nordica, volkl, fischer, head, probably rossi, and probably dynastar will be there. don't get your hopes up for trying out a pair of lizzies; he doesn't have any demos of them. pretty sure he's got prophet 90s, 100s, flites, and celebrities, and i think that's it. don't expect many companies to have twins to demo, and if you're not 18, you're most likely going to need a parent there to sign off on everything.

Messaged lineskis and he said email blue and I dd, waiting for their response.

Yeah, wasn't expecting lizzies since it's such a, uh, newschoolish ski I guess. Still gonna go and have fun skiing.

I'll be there on Saturday with the whole Prophet line up to 100s (no 130s), 176 Chronic, and 165 Celebrity.

I do have a set of Lizzies, but there is a very good chance you won't fit in them...

I was there yesterday, I saw someone drop a snowboard from the lift, and after falling on a 540 off a jump into a super bombed out landing, a snowboarder hit my ski that fell off and bent my brakes.

I saw you and was like "g suit, must be on ns." g suit pants or full suit, I saw somebody with pants only, unless you had you jacket off cause it was really warm.

For whatever reason it was hit the back of my skis in the lift line day all day. Never really annoys me but it was awful. I kept doing disasters on the first flat down at the top, got a decent one near the end.

Yeah, about an hour into riding, I took the jacket off. I had the pants, a huge green tall tee, and a blue saga thermal under it.
You ride Blue often?

Kinda at blue often, I enjoyed the park setup and am probably gonna head back sunday as long as it's not raining all week. I wish I was close enough to anywhere to go on a weekday.

Sorry I didn't reply on the people who posted their BSLs. I was up there with my Lizzies and no one stopped by. I'm at Blue most weekends when not traveling or doing stuff at other mountains. If you're interested in trying the Lizzies and your BSL is less than like 306mm, just pm me and we can try to meet up for a few runs.

Might have some demo Lizzies for sale in a few weeks.
