?Que pasa?, Eli. I've been doing my "snow dance" regularly, but I'm looking to up the ante. Unfortunately I'm having trouble locating virgin princesses to sacrifice. I'm w/ ya on some serious dumpage this season. Hopefully we can take more than a couple runs together this time around, eh? Mea culpa, bruddah. I'm sure a buncha us will be getting a trip or two put together. Looks like we're gonna get serious on the planning sometime after the area expo's have come thru. Btw, you get a pass to anywhere this year?

By looking at the SacSnow.com (assuming its the same as the one in San Jose) it looks like its gonna be a N*/Sierra lift ticket.
Just about 2 months to go till those boards come out from storage... where did you guys store yours? Any people mount theirs on a wall?
Friend on the xB forums pointed this board out to me... its pretty sick. 158 tho, way too big for me.

Like ya said, as advertised on their website, the Sac expo gives a voucher that are "good at either Northstar-At-Tahoe or Sierra-At-Tahoe resort, valid Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday throughout the entire 07/08 season. Some restrictions apply."
Btw, they need to update/correct the season's years on that site.
The San Jo show typically gives out a voucher good for one "chunk" of resorts Mon thru Fri of the week immediately after New Year's, and then a different "chunk" Mon thru Fri the following week.
I miss the days when BEWI sports put on the show, and we had to "trade" one ticket voucher for another when the random drawing spit out a resort we didn't care for. The system now is good though b/c ya get more time to check out the booths, demo's, etc.
Can't wait to get my slide on! The various pix & video of the dusting fr: this unusual winter-like system are such a tease! Hopefully, by the time we attend these expos, our 1st turns will be just around the corner!

Looks like they have a few options this time around. I'll probably go w/ the GOLD, but 10 more bux ain't bad to also ride Incline Village. It's one of the few spots I've never been & have always wanted to check it out.
SnowBomb's also got a helluva deal for an UNRESTRICTED Kirkwood season pass for only $399! Wowzers!
After talking w/ El Jefe @ the Duke last nite, we gotta set up a trip to Homewood sometime this year!

Please stay away. This place is haunted. The lifts break down all the time. The terrain sux big time. It's always super crowded.
Happy Sliding!

I can't believe bear valley's season pass is up to $499....that's just friggen rediculous. Means you have to go 11 times to pay it off. Used to be like 5/6 times could pay it off.
Stupid thing is they have a "Renewal" price...it's the same ****ing price...
I've been talking to them for YEARS to have kick backs for season pass renewals. Keep people doing it year after year. As it is now I do it every other year. Only time it's really worth it. You buy at the end of one season..get like 5-10 days in then the next season is pretty much free. When you already have one you can't work it like that. I hate the new owners of bear valley. They're ****ing everything up.

Ive thought of hiking up gunbarrel at heavenly lol, once you are mid mountain and stay off the big lifts youre fine. i probly couldnt do it in the snow, but i hiked to the top of squaw valley in the summer, wasnt bad at all and would be $70 in your pocket
i hate how resorts are like "we put $5 million dollars into the mountain for you!" i dont give a F, leave it alone and give me a cheaper lift ticket.
i hate the San jose snow show free lift ticket, 3 chunks of the year only good for certain places, i didnt even use mine last year.
