grouse has officially been titled the lower mainlands shittiest mountain by the georgia straight. not only that theyr park is gonna suck this year for 10th straight year in a row. thats even longer than cypress!!

why dont we all recognize grouse mountains accomplishment and never go there again.

the cut jump line is gonna be crazy, the red rail is huge. Can't ride anymore this season because of a back injury but i wouldn't have hit it anyway. I'll be there on sunny days in april to take some shots.

i think their waiting for the weather to get better, then maybe they will make the jump a bit smaller and open it to public?

my guess

Would be mad lame if they kept the Cut Line closed even longer.. Slap a 90 footer on Peak. Keep the current Cut set up with the jumps a bit easier to clear

61cms in the past 24hours what the hell?! April 1st was three days ago they are a bit retarded!

Went up yesterday, it was snowing very hard though, even if 61cms is a bad joke.

I am so incredibly jealous  of anyone who has gone up today.  I got the snow report text this morning just before going to school and was so close to skipping and going... If I was at my place in Vancouver with my ski gear I definitely would have.

im pretty sure cut jump line isnt coming back this season. as far as i know shaw just wants to take his time and build the best jump possible for alterna post season. and the cut is definitely gonna be the location because of the backdrop.

I heard them say that it can't be after may long weekend
don't think they have decided when it will actually close yet, but by the looks of things we will probably be shredding into may

typical grouse park bullshit

nothing used to make me angrier than silcock's big gay hips for his all important photoshoot surrounded by the worst neglected jump and rail setups. we need a park groomer who cares more about building an actually good terrain park than getting the picture for the trail map

>:(

silcock doesnt even work for grouse anymore. the reason for the park being a bit hack as of late is that shaw (the park groomer) has been away and park crew was having a lot of trouble getting other mountain groomers to step up and even take a lap through the park.

i realize silcock is done and silcock 2.0 is definitely much sicker

but neglecting a month of park in order to make a photoshoot jump is pretty unforgivable. silcock used to neglect an entire season and call the park a success as long as someone got a sunset method on the hip in front of the city so this is obviously way better

ur dumb. the park has been really sick this year and is actually a ton of fun right now. stop bitching about a few weeks when we've had the best park in many years. "silcock 2.0" has a name it's shaw.

i know you havnt been shredding much grouse this year, but this has not been like previous years. in terms of the park getting a regular grooming, these past few weeks are really the only time it hasnt been happening, and again its because shaw has been away. park crew has been holding it down. it sucks that alterna was valued higher than the paying public with the jump line being taken down, thats my only complaint for the time being.

as if your saying tom is dumb and that he is bitching. tom was one of the first park skiers to start skiing these local hills and almost everyone who knows him respects him and would never come around and call him dumb over the computer let alone "bitching" about a park. take a breath and calm down...
