Sunburst Thursdays

thatd be sick if we could get a bunch of skiers there on the same day like last years thursdays. i plan on going a lot more this winter, so ill be there every thursday. im shootin for at least 3-4 times a week !
 
yo you should pm me and tell me how sunburst is....i'm within driving distance but i won't check this thread again i bet. no offense to sunburst or you.
 
I'm not sure when i'm going to be there during the week. have to make my school schedule and normally the park doesn't get going until january so who knows until then
 
Anyone know when sunburst is supposed to open i hear oct 31st but i also heard oct 27th which one is it and is it really gonna be open by the end of october
 
where did u hear this? i know they installed the new system today so now its double for snow making, hopefully they use it!!!! late october would be sick as hell.
 
Im in no hurry. They wont have there park open for a long time anyways. You can only rip up expedition so many times.
 
whoever said this is a dumbass. u cant have a planned date 2 weeks in advance unless your in a place where every year you are garenteed snow at the time. rule for opening is atleast 2 days of snowmaking which means a temp of 28F and less than 30% humidity.
 
No no they didnt say they would open it was my friend and he said that they were aiming to open by then like that was one of the goals and i heard it from a bunch of dif people actually so it might be true that they will try
 
yeah we can only hope, the weather looks like it should be good to go for some blowin, we'll see!! and they put in the new system soooo yeah i would expect something around early november,
 
huge storm comming late this week into the early weekend. biggest in years. will be rain or snow depending on temps. theyre saying rain but a few degrees cooller can make it snow. 1-3inches of rain possible so 3-6 inches of snow?
 
One inch of rain is equal to about 6-9 inches of snow in the midwest. When you get out west, on inch of rain can easily be 12+ inches of snow in the mtns.
 
November 6th target opening with Exhibition and the beginner park:-)

The most segregated hill in the midwest plans to get discriminatory the first night!

Now let's hope mother-nature is listening. They do not plan to make snow at all during the days peak energy periods to save money so it probably needs to be cold for 2-3 nights for them to get the runs open.
 
Wow that sounds amazing, its coming soooo close. I checked the 15-day and it looks like its under 28 for 4 days in a row before the 6th so :):):):):):)
 
a thanksgiving openning is still questionable. as of today the lows for the week are S 37, M 35, T 35, W 31, T 28, F 26, Sat 26.

3 nights of snowmaking if this holds up
 
If not Thanksgiving weekend, it will for sure be open the next week. But I sure know I don't want to wait another week to go skiing. PRAY FOR SNOW!!!!!!!
 
i emailed steve voss and he said that they blew some snow last night and will continue to blow when the weather will let them. he also said that they are shooting to open friday december 4th.
 
december openning. these words shouldnt be in the same sentence. whens the last time the opened this late.

i can only think back to the nov 6th openning of 2006-07 season.
 
Sunburst sucks when it comes to opening. Tyron Basin is all ready open, and its south of Sunburst, by like an hour. Sunburst should just open a little section of rails or something. I WANT TO SKI!!!!!!!
 
just got back from today.

Park:

Flat Box on top

2 flat rails

corrugated pipe

small flat box

handrail

table

the handrail was really fun! and it was empty this morning and the park crew actually kept up with the jumps up to the features. unfortunately though the top boxes landing got raped of course, but there were more features this time. it was fun, ill be there tomorrow night.
 


heres what the park looked like today, woulda got more footy but the batteries were gettin too cold, gotta buy some lithiums...
