Well I hesitated & missed out.

2 brand new Never Summer boards were posted on Craigslist for $250 each.
Snowboards Never Summer

I had exactly $250 but didn't want to be left broke, + I already have too many.
Regardless, I shoulda bought one anyway. What was I thinkin'? I coulda rode it & sold it for $300.
Really pissed @ myself right now.

But I have a feeling Kung-pow might have grabbed one, if not both @ that price.

Well Kung-pow, did you grab one or both of those?

If it is steep enough for you to be able to land on that transition & ride away, & the same grade of transition is on the other side, in theory why the hell wouldn't you be able to ride up it?

By your logic a skateboarder wouldn't be able to make it up the other side of a half pipe, yet they do & pump to gain even more momentum.

Go back to school.

yea.... because a halfpipe is usually made out of an inflatable bag isn't it?

you fucking idiot.

Looking out my window, the mountains are still in clouds but I can see snow way down into north van.

Woohoo! And Grouse is reporting that it's currently snowing.

FUCK Seymour and their barely-maintained excuse for a web page!

I just took this pic out my window a few minutes ago.

Wow the snow looks nice for a change! This is amazing!

timmytard · 10-21-2012, 06:31 PM

Was up on Seymour this afternoon. Here's the new Mystery loading station:

Goldie:

The snow was about 8" deep on Goldie. Easily enough to do some runs. I'm sure it was deeper uphill on Mystery, but we didn't head that way.

NICE!

Saw that they got about 20cm overnight. Yeah, the seymour page may not show it but people were posting pics etc on facebook this morning.

FUCKIN' A. BRING IT ON!
