I wanna be more like doug...

Well...Blackcomb is. And if you say "same thing", you should feel shame.

Everybody book your Physio Appointments now!

(sigh) I'll be there in spirit. High-fives in the wizard line...wow does my Blue 5x7 sound rad this year! Wh00t!

They are pretty good. I have been on the 04.05 for a while, but demoed the 05.06 at NSIA in tremblant last winter. It was a reasonably cold hard snow day. It was January, but there was no pipe and no park to speak of, but they held real well going all-out fast (I am 6'2, 230) and kept up nice...

I have scratch BC's that I have used in a few different gondolas. The more enlightned hills are putting in carriers that are big enough for them - sometimes you have to separate them and "nest" the tails toghether - base to topsheet. That can work. Or one ski per holder. The snowboard...

I's gots mine.

Rex hugged me once...

I am at 22 or 23 years now...but then I have had a stack of 100+ day seasons...

My bad - you don't mention lift ticket prices J.D. - apollogies. I stand by my rationelle on pricing though.

Come on - do you really think that an investment like that is going to get paid for with lift tickets? whatEVER. Intrawest exists on a slightly more complex level than that. All of the operating groups - the Travel and Lesuire groups which includes an online travel agency, a points share...

Take the train? Have you ever looked at VIA rail prices? Its like getting your wallet pulled out of your ass really fast over and over. Reamed to death by credit card. 'The money's in the medicine, not the cure!' Harvey

Hey Julien, I did the drive from Whistler back to TO a year ago - I did 5 SOLID days of driving. 14 hours Whistler to Calgary first day, 12 or so to Brandon Manitoba second, 10 or so to Thunder Bay, then 7 or so to Sault St Marie and 7 to Toronto. I think you are dreaming with 3 days, let...

Whistler has nothing to do with it (nor Intrawest for that matter), W1 is the outside body and event organizer, and they are a whole different company putting the event on, and its their insurance that is meaningful. WB's does not cover outside events. Confusing - a bit. Rocket Science - no...

CKO - well said man. 'The money's in the medicine, not the cure!' Harvey

Real jobs are ok - they certainly pay better money, and there isnt any homework (most of the time). I work for a youth marketing company. 'The money's in the medicine, not the cure!' Harvey

^ as above - I have seen at least 2 of those guys do entire runs switch. And kill. 'The money's in the medicine, not the cure!' Harvey

^^Not that great to begin with? But then you have never been there...wow, you are such a tool! Or is it that you are just some wanker with an extra profile that posts stupid shit just to stir things up? 'The money's in the medicine, not the cure!' Harvey
