Dude, the board is $550 regular... down to $380 right now, plus a free $80 board bag, plus a free $25 t-shirt, plus free international shipping... and I didn't have to pay customs or brokerage across the border.  A 2013 all wood custom flying v... or a libtech trs without magnetraction... at a fraction of the cost!  You can't go wrong. ...

Sooo... I got a bill from FedEx today in the mail... turns out they're charging me $60.61 for customs and brokerage... OUCH.  Do they really expect me to pay this? Ugh... turns out other people had collections agencies contacting them when they didn't pay.  Sigh.   Still a great deal overall though.

hes fj5, if your in toronto, why dont you just ship to buffalo for pickup? thats how l do that 

Just wanted to send a shoutout to all my Ontario peeps, HELLO FROM JAY PEAK! WOOOOOO!   

Snow is... not ideal... lots of ice.  Super cold -20 deg C weather... hopefully not as cold tomorrow.  Happy shredding all!

^ I did indeed.  Today was about -18 deg C again... so cold on the lifts.  Cold burn!!!

Bah! I'm reaching Sunday man. I work every Saturday. Going to be my first ride day after my back injury 2 weeks ago. Will butter the shit out of Blue like it was french toast.

Wow, seriously, that was the best conditions I have ever ridden at Blue Mountain... seriously EVER!  Real POW in Ontario, it was insane!!!  Hope this keeps up!

was this friday? l went on friday morning after the snowstorm, pretty sick weather

Those photos were from last night (Saturday night).  I didn't bother with videos, I just wanted to enjoy as much of it as I could!   FWIW, I said "EVER" and that means within the last 3-4 years!  Seriously.

Have fun Lux, lemme know what you think.

I may go tomorrow... still deciding.

Yo, confirmed, I'm goin' up tomorrow (Monday).  Meetup?

That sounds like some amazing conditions, Moonstone had some soft powder on top, a couple of inches but near the end of the day a lot of ice was exposed.

It snowed all day and they made snow all day at -13degC so instant fluff.  Piles up fast.  I got stuck at some flats and had to unbind, my foot sunk down about a foot at some parts.  Really nice float sections, particularly the North side after the steeps.  Had a bad fall when my 360 landed short and I caught toe edge and flew forward... fluff saved me from pain.  My car looked like a frosted icicle by the time I left in the early evening.

I'm seriously looking forward to that pipe!

I may be there all weekend, Lux... 15-17, group trip again with some peeps.  I was originally thinking Fri/Sat only but maybe we can stay till Sunday.

FJ comes in from the east end, I come in from the west end. I'd be more than happy to give you a ride if you want to drop by first, and I'm sure FJ is generous too (right, FJ??).

Blue had tonnes of snow from the storm and it kept snowing all day and continued as we left in the evening.  Still not as nice as last week, in my opinion.  The pow was heavier and sticky.  Not the light fluffy stuff from last week.  A few runs after grooming and you already had quite a bit of chop to go through.  Still pretty good, but wasn't the best... visibility was a bother too.  I imagine it'll be beautiful this weekend with sunny skies in the forecast.  Man, I love bluebirds after a huge storm!  Too bad I can't go tomorrow (Saturday)... have lots of snow to shovel at home. 

I went in the morning actually... took about an hour longer than usual with the treacherous drive!  Got there around noon, left around 7pm.  I'm paying for it now though... not only did I shovel my gf's driveway with her fam... but came home to a fully covered driveway and walkway of my own to do all by my wonderful self.  If it's a bluebird on Monday, I might just go again.

How's your recovery going, rye?

Holy shit FJ! you need a snowblower! haha but this is just of those one offs

l actually went to kissing bridge over the weekend. so mad. so l dont do park, and it was my frist time there. So l was apparently on the north end. saw 2 runs, 3rd is a park. wanted to avoid it. I was like wtf, waste of money. Turns out park is in middle, on other side there was like 30 more runs. Great price 2night pass for $40. Brought back my snowboard iron too ;P

Originally posted by jhoang6 Holy shit FJ! you need a snowblower! haha but this is just of those one offs Ridiculous amounts of snow. and in the wrong places haha this stuff needs to be concentrated on the hills. Lux, FJ that sounds like a plan. I can meet up with someone off the 400 but count me as out until I can confirm, Feels like i might be flaky I'm down with splitting gas too. would there be room for a snowboard bag? I just came back from Moonstone, the snow there was great. soft and light, but it kept on sticking to my topsheet and built up! great conditions though.. blue bird. weather got pretty warm as the day progressed... maybe a little too warm. but it didn't hail like it was forecasted too.

Alright, how about next Monday?  Feb 18?  Who's down for an East Coast meetup at Blue?  Lux, can you take it off?  Rye, coolz, keljai?

Oh man, never mind!  That would be a horrible day to go, will be so packed with people, wouldn't it?  

How about this Friday?

great price actually, saw them at skiis and biike literally yesterday for 160+tax

Meh, I'll still ride on Monday regardless. I'm going to be there at 8:30 am, park RIGHT at the front of the south lodge. Bitches aint gonna stop me from hitting up the slopes, no matter what  Family day or not. Riding in a group will make you less mindful of the lines too, more sociable and enjoyable. Sorry FJ, I work Friday
