also i was at cop, today, for my level 1 snowboard instructor course, haha i looked at the park and woah is all i can say.
okay cop, if you are going to try and even compete with the mountains at least have a decent park, look louise had a shitty opening park last year, but that doesnt matter, they arnt in calgary and isnt a shitty mountain, when you go to a mountain you ride the mountain not the park all day so it shouldnt really matter. So open up a decent park, so people dont waste their time there.


p.s to any of the park riders with your XXXL jackets that are half zipped down, and pants down there ass, stop kidding us, and zip it up its -20. also i dont tell you your shit is gay, i may think you look stupid, but i dont say it to face. so dont say my neckwarmer is gay. p.s most of you suck at riding anyways.


oh yah and mazda_maniac, 20$ for one run? have you ever been to cop?
34$ for one run.

Are you talking about the park that is running with a magic carpet? that is just the progression park i.e. some gay opening park.

COP's real park is usually skiers right of the quad on the right (i forget the name) and it usually doesn't open to late december. Last year didn't even open till like the 27th of december or something.

And they never know how to build jumps but the rails are cool and usually the pipe is alright. For 20 minutes from your home and night riding.. i definately think its great lol.

yah but for whats open 34$ is fucking steep,

like when sunshine and louise dont have everything open
it was 37$ at sunshine opening and 25$ at louise,
this is for youth which my friend bought, i have a season pass.


so lets see, no park, no left side, one run. heck even MT norquay only charged 20$ for one run. and its a longer run.

and cops opening park last year was better, it had 2 little kickers 1 box, 1 rail, and a 1/4 wall-ride, the wall-ride was fun cause we built a jump on the side of the 1/4 pipe, to bs across. the whole top of the 1/4 pipe.
but stupid park riders got mad, cause we took up a little bit on the right side of the 1/4 pipe. so they couldnt attempt to blunt stall to face plant on the right side, or look stupid attempting to spin a million 180s on it and scraping all the snow down it.

Lol oh i see your saying the quality for $34 bucks then yes i agree with you haha.

Cop is pretty outrageous for $34 bucks but then again i never pay or if i do i go on wednesday nights when it's 10 bucks after 5.

Was at Louise on Wednesday. The snow was amazing and so was the weather. I don't think it dipped under 5 below all day and most of the runs were open.

yes louise has a good opening year, ive been 6 times already and havent complained, much better snow this year than last.

Holy shit 6 times? Thats wicked.

Shitty deal for me dudes. I was stoked to go this weekend. First, i was planning on going up thursday night, staying in canmore, then going friday and saturday. I couldn't find anyone that wasn't busy with school or could get work off, so I decided to work today.

Then, I was going to go just saturday. I've kind of had a headache and been feeling like ass recently, but I felt good enough to rip it up. I went to the Doctors today and my sore ass throat is Tonsillitis. I am choked . Its been snowing all week in banff

I HAVE to test out my new board next week or I will cry

BTW thanks for the reassurance with the cards... thats what I thought. This is the first time i've decided to get more than one. You wouldn't think they would be too strict with discount cards when people are using other ppl's seasons passes every day heh

[Kobe]

Still havn't gone out this year...

Looking back at my pictures from a few years ago, like 3 years ago.. I had some tricks up my slevees that I would not try now hahaha



I have no idea how I used to do that..

[Slashin_]

COP report went all day today, theres ramps n stuff right beside newbie spot(magic carpet)...during the day snow is decent is like soft ice....at night mostly ice....patches od powder from blowing snow

half pipe not dun
either is the trick park up top
if u get bored u can watch skeleton

n there r still half zipped xxxl /w low pants punx tthere

[CivicTunr]

^^ yah i went to cop today too, it was fun to fool around, feel sorry for anyone who paid for a lift ticket haha. the 3 kickers were good for spinning 3's and 5's and the occasional forced 7.

They never ever advertise it last 3 years vibe 98.5 would usually just have an advertisement for it on the radio and if you go there and ask them they give it to you.

Went to louise today. it was pretty good, they could use a good snowfall though. Some areas there were rocks and it got icy towards the end of the day. Theres some pow of the sides of runs.

[bonnieclyde240]

Louise was DOPE! The black diamond runs and the terrain park were fun. The only thing I didn't like were those mogul bumps, they took a toll on my legs, but was it worth it. We blazed half way through the day and that made the ride even better . We used the free day of our pass, so 2 trips to Nakiska then we get another free ride at Louise. My body is still throbbing 2 days after, can't wait to go again!

[Hanzo]

nakiska wasn't that great the opening weekend, too much ice. I wiped once because there was a huge block of ice in the middle of a run... didn't see it until it was too late... fuking hell

[Artega]

Fernie was Awesome this weekend
I could not ask for better weather

almost a feet of powder of Thursday night and still snowing on Friday morning
had the best time of my life

and you could use your louise card too

Went to Sunshine on Saturday. There was a lot of snow, and it was actually sunny! The only problem I had was i brought my board in to get waxed, and they did a shitty ass job or something since it was super slow. I had to avoid some runs that were flattish or had too much snow because i would get stuck!
