[Enzo]

[MR. JOHN DEERE !]

i'll call you tommorow. ill be posting the lineup for the tilt saturday am, in the bunyan room. im probably going to go with a soft setup. kenmac is lending me a RIDE 165. sunday should be decent. the sbow will be really hard. it will be a typical late april day. boiler plate turing to puppy s%%t.PISSA!!!!!!!!!

[Enzo]

ch9 said possible showers Sat AM but more likely in manch-vegas area...possibly just cloudy at exit 32. if it's raining, i'll be in the bunyan room @8 drinking poundas til it clears. will you be able to dth on that Ride165??????

[MR. JOHN DEERE !]

sorry i missed you, ruff one last night. my buddy really took one for the team last night with my couger neighbor, he was in tough shape. i ended running into mojo and guy-father. HOWEVA today was pissa!!!!!!!!!!! it was by far the best day ive ever had on the snow in a long time. my wife had to pry me away, i didn't want to leave. this year has been epic, and it looks like the fun has just begun. more of the same stuff this week. tonight where going to be starting out with 4" of ice diareha, that will be turning into schlitz pellets ova night. then the sky will be dumping keystone light. next weekend should be even better.

[Enzo]

not a problem. my wife & I almost left after our first run, but then we found marginal coverage on upper picks. stayed til 10am. had a ton of fun on the obstacle course of grass patches, mud, rocks, sink holes, streams etc. can't wait for MLK weekend.

[Dave Pushee]

It's nice being retired - midweek boarding rocks!

Weather cooperated and Loon was blowing snow all day today - most was coming out pretty sweet.

With a good groom tonight, tomorrow should leave some decent cord.

[MR. JOHN DEERE !]

ill bet this week was awsome, i was checking the temps and they seemed like perfect days. howeva, i heard 40% chance of rain tommorow and sundee. what a surprise, then loon is going to get its usual sunday night snowstorm. then by the end of the week more rain and sleet. weekend warriors cant win. its a waist of time even trying to think a week ahead. ive done that for the last month and it keeps on getting worse and i cant wait to see what the place looks like in february!

[MR. JOHN DEERE !]

gp, ill bring the advil and the glycosmine. can you bring the redbull and motrin? should be good, great temps all week. bring your real board!!!!!

[Enzo]

watch the weather. Temps 13-17F with winds 20-40mph. Gusts up to 50mph.

[polaris]

I'm in. See you there.

JD: Bring the Gouldens extra-spicy!

[MR. JOHN DEERE !]

good stuff , today was a little dicey a lot of wind, and the guns at full blast. put the 4x4 to work mid mourning in the man made powda field. i just put on a case of ben-gay. ill bet waterville got at least 6"-12" from us. i put enzo on waivers for his lack lusta performance today. he pulled the chute even with a puffer on. also second day in a row without the hot dog truck! hope he has fun at cranmore!

[Enzo]

hey guy I hope some of that ben-gay made it on your knee. Waivers???? I spend one day playing for Team 24 and all of a sudden I’m cut??? I’ll remember this…..I’m taking numbers....better not have your head down next time across blue line!!!

[Gleb]

Let me know when you guys are going to be up at one of the threedom mountains. I can make it any day except tuesday and thursday. I was at waterville dialing in my Madd and all of the sudden an enormous mobb (15-20) little ones just hit the slope at the same time when school got out... Good thing they all ended up at the little park on the side of the mtn. Anywho, hit me up!

[MR. JOHN DEERE !]

on the weekends there's always a pretty big group of us at loon. let us know. we meet at the octagon lodge upstairs in the bunyan room around 8-8:30.

[willywhit]

got a day pass on the way.

Went to WV today. Conditions were unbelievable from 8-10am--Deer Valley-esque corduroy!!! Hit the front side trails and North Side, never made it to Sunnyside (true grit area). Got a bit scratchy after 10am on anything steep, but packed powder was still plentiful elsewhere. Crowds were light & coverage was much better compared to Loon's--hardly any gravel or sticks to avoid. Desantis is gonna make a killing off me this winter. time for a team 32 vs team 28 scrimmage.

[MR. JOHN DEERE !]

guess who showed up today? conditions seemed to be the same at exit 32. pulled the shoot around 11:00. did the wvbbts have anything setup today? we have a big tilt saturday, are you going to get called up or are you enjoying your time with teh j.v team?

[Enzo]

spotted a few bbts kids but didn't see any gates. what trail did you guys shoot on? worked on my skillz today so I'm ready for the call up on Sat. got my 4-pack of RedBull chillin'. who else is showin up? is rejean going back to back??

[Hollywood 90210]

I was helping with the WVBBTS team this weekend (I was wearing a black coat and was riding either a Donek or a Madd), we ran SL gates on High Country on Saturday. Worked on free riding on Sunday. I thought the snow was the best that it has been all season. I was still able to find good carving terrain as late as 2:30, at that time my legs then cried "no mas". Is there any interest in masters race training? If there is interest I will talk to the club and see about either a perdiem rate or a price for the season. We usually get hill space 1/2day on both Saturday and Sunday and on some weekends we get a lane both morning and afternoon.

[Gleb]

Glenn, im interested in race training just because its one way that I can really push my riding and I think it would be a great chance to ride with people that rip.

[polaris]

Hi Glenn:

I would consider masters training as well. I rode a few times with Anton and Joe last year and enjoyed the opportunity.

-Ken

[Hollywood 90210]

I will talk to the club president and will post up the details.

[Enzo]

Please add me to the list. Glenn I think you passed by me at the quad lift line on Sun am while I was waiting for my wife. I was on a blue flame Coiler & orange jacket. What a day!!! I'm still fired up over those conditions!!

[Justin A.]

I'm another one in for possible gate training . I haven't run gates in almost 2 years now though, so I'm not very good anymore

[MR. JOHN DEERE !]

sounds good. hey glenn long time no talk! can we still set on true grit? high country is pretty good, because we would kind of have it too ourselves. let me know!
