The.FishToday was epic. I learned 3 new tricks and it was good to see skierfromohio back on snow.
RparrSo I was at mount snow today, and when buying my lift ticket from the office the head guy there asked me who the gm is at bmbw now. I told him it was Josh Boyd, he lol'd and said "I'm sure you guys want vinnie back now, right?".
I guess he has a reputation across the country.
The.FishUsually I get burnt out by mid march but I want to ski more than any time this season. (Besides preseason of course because everyone goes crazy) I managed to get 15 days in after presidents day weekend.
Rparrthat's because we got fucking robbed of our winter, especially you with your broken wrists. Springs is closing saturday, it might be worth the drive depending how desperate you are. Luckily I'm up at Mt Snow where the parks rock. I even accidentally almost threw a flatspin out of a donkey dick and didn't die
The.FishLol my dad wont believe they have snow
RparrSprings? They do, and their annual mashed potato meltdown is slated for April 14th. Allegedly the rev tour and good company shoot are going down between closing day (sat) and then, so they must have snow
The.FishI know they have snow. Im saying that my father wont believe me and he wouldnt justify me going.
RparrGuys I have decided I'm never giving another dollar to bmbw again in my life, even if I'm stuck here next season. After 10+ years of season passes. I'm free! Fuck you Josh Boyd!so you wont be skiing mad river then? They are basically the same thing. It should be bmbwavmrm (boston mills brandywine alpine valley mad river mountain
The.Fishso you wont be skiing mad river then? They are basically the same thing. It should be bmbwavmrm (boston mills brandywine alpine valley mad river mountain
RparrNo I graduate from Ohio state in December so I won't even be near mad river anymore. Hopefully I will be west by then. If not, I will just make springs trips. I literally cannot progress anymore at bmbw. However I'm stoked, skiing in the backyard today with this snow we got. Last sesh probably
The.Fishyea no snow in brecksville
The.FishI have an idea. How about we get all the bmbw guys on newschoolers to work park crew so we can actually have more than 8 rails put up and have non sketchy jumps.
Rparrwell I would love to but I graduate college in December and will likely be bound by whatever full time job I take by the second half of ski season or so. Plus, I doubt josh would ever hire me after all the shit I've talked.
I would have that shit looking like park city.
The.FishI feel like a big part is the snowcat operator. If he is lazy then the jumps look like shit. The crew could still pull out the chain saws and shape the sides of the jump like for big air
RparrThe only time they ever build nice jumps is when they manage to get that Elia guy or whatever to come to town
The.FishThat is very true but we could atleast cut the kickers into a shape like Pknpk. It looks so much better and takes like 5 min.
RparrLook at this old article I found, it's a pretty good representation of where our parks are headed
The.FishBMBW wouldn't ever get that bad. I would drive to snow trails if it did.
RparrSo I'm trying to come back up to bmbw for the open house in October, except their damn website doesn't even have the rail jam listed under open house details. I don't want to make the drive up there if there's not even going to be the rail jam. do you have any idea? because I've been blacklisted,they don't answer me on social media anymore lmao
The.FishSo I went to Buckeye Sports Center to check out their ski swap and ended up buying brand new rossi s3 skis with griffons for $550 brand new which was a steal. The employee was impressed with my enthusiasm and knowledge of skis and said he would strongly suggest that I think about working there. It sounds way better than working with stoners at bmbw and getting paid minimum wage. Apparently every Saturday we gather in the basement and talk about the industry for 3 hours which sounds interesting. Apparently i get a free pass to bmbw still which was the only attractive part of working for bmbw. Anybody have a reason for me not to work there? Thanks
The.FishIdk if u saw but the rail jam is on saturday and sunday on msnow. Shouldnt be a mud fest for once.
Rparrno reason not to work there. I've been going there since I was very young, its a solid store. The best part is, you wouldn't be surrounded by morons like you would at sun valley. I'm stoked about the mSnow rail jam, will definitely be coming up for both days.
The.FishIdk if u saw but the rail jam is on saturday and sunday on msnow. Shouldnt be a mud fest for once.
andeezymcdAlpine Valley is having one next Tuesday and Wednesday on mSnow too during their open house; I think I'm gonna go up there since I won't be in town next weekend.
The.FishIs anybody going to the fourth phase showing for alpine valley thursday?
Jzammyskier3I might what time does it start
The.Fish9 but there is no school the next day.
Jzammyskier3Oh i have a half day that day
The.FishOh i thought it was a north east ohio thing. Weird
