Holy Shit!! This was so much fun! If you guys get the chance to get out there go for it. It's pretty sick sessioning a jump when you can try rodeos,mistys,corks for the first time with almosst no risk.

Who else was out there this weekend? I was there Saturday in all gray, north face hoodie. Every Mountain needs to get one of these.

Ridiculous

It's true, I landed on my head 9 times in a row...............................it hurt. Makes it worse I didn't stick the trick either! Maybe I should snowboard or something...

We have one at Blue Mountain in PA and it seems kind of sketchy to me. Really big to really flat. I personally haven't f-ed with it. It also seems like they're actually having trouble getting people to do it. They charge $5 for 3 hits or $10 for an all night pass. But Wednesday night is like free ladies night now and free coaching on it from 2-3 on Saturdays in Feb. I haven't really seen any skiers do it yet. I've seen some pretty young snowboarders doing doubles but usually no one is on it.

I want to laugh at the pic, but I can't because it really does look like death if that is a real picture of it. What are they doing?

It's real...pulled this pic right from their site. http://www.skibluemt.com They had a contest on it Saturday along with a rail jam and they definitely had the bag filled up more. I was thinking about entering cause it was only $5 extra if you were already in the rail jam. But then one of the kids in line told me he broke his neck on it last year and that was all the convincing I needed.

just fyi in case you didn't know, you hike for it whether you buy a lift ticket or not, it's not lift serviced. so if you don't plan on taking a lift for regular shredding, yeah just get the 14 dollar air bag ticket

their park is complete shit, no maintenance on it at all. jump line is the only somewhat descent thing.
The bag is pretty sick, but dont expect to dub on it unless your hucking a dub backflip or something super ugly. You also have to battle with 25 little kids all hitting it too. hopefully after it blows over there will be less crowds.

bump... I've heard from a few people that work there, that they've decided to put snow flex in or some kind of dry slope to session during the summer. Fuck Yeah!!!
