Snowboarding without a lift ticket?

[KrazyKanadian]

^ One final way to do it is....if you find someone leaving the mountain early (go around noon), you can buy their day pass off them for like 5 bucks.

couple things, legit questions. if you live in park city, why the fuck do you not have a season pass and instead pay $100??? if you dont live in park city, or live somewhere like SLC or within driving range of PC, why the fuck don't you go to Alta. its 60$, they have fucktons more snow, and the runs are unreal.

excuse the fucks in the above, not meant in anger, more in honest surprise.

I do have a season pass, just meant that it was 100$ for a day pass, which it is. And many seasons I only make it out like once a month or so, in which case I won't buy a season pass.

Oh and Park City is one of my favorite resorts by far. Brighton being one of my favorites too and the Canyons falling just behind those two. Park city is amazing for the terrain parks though. One of the largest super pipes in the world and the largest on the continent.

ah yes, i dont do park skiing, thats probably the disconnect. man if i lived out there, i would make sure i went at least once a week. hell i go once a week out here (or at least i try to).

park city is fun, ive been there once. canyons is awesome, probably has my favorite runs. a single day lift ticket there is 106$. i was shocked when i saw that this year. alta is a place where i feel everything is my playground, and i love some of the tree skiing there. solitude has for one reason or another always had the best snow conditions for me, so it also holds a place in my heart, and its where my friends like the most, so i end up enjoying it a ton too.

This thread makes me laugh.

Enjoy your time. Buy a lift ticket.

 

[wlu29]

is this thread for real?

i am being trolled right?

if for real, ts is a cheap and poor loser, don't snowboard

 

[Toda Hiro-matsu]

This exactly. I don't want to stay at the bunny hill all day learning to snowboard. Fuck that. Go hard or go home. Thanks for the advice ziggs. Probably best to buy that lift ticket if it includes liablility and insurance.



Yeah bro my friends feel so bad especially when the ride over the resort and the food is on me.

Yeah. I bet that's the only reason you're allowed to go. They probably talk about what a pain in the ass you are behind your back all the fuckin time.

Lol. Kid acting like he fucking knows me and my friends. Seems like you speak from experience.

Whistler is like 100 bucks or a little more per day too

Dude buy a helicopter. That seems like your best bet.

Has there ever been a whiter crime than this?

mutha fukkin lol!


yeah things are changing from when i used to sneak on...i heard about the bounties etc that ticket checkers get etc....

 

[SevenSamurai]

OK. I am actually going to tell you how to do this.

Most slopes only scan lift tickets at the very bottom base lifts, not the the mid tier lifts.

So either hike to the first mid tier and ride it to the summit and then never ride any lower than the last mid tier station and just go back and forth on the upper and middle lifts.

I used to ride a snowmobile up Little Annies Road to the top of Aspen mountain and then ride for free all day so long as I never ride past the last mid tier station -so I just stayed up on the upper terrain and middle terrain.

If I wanted to pay I would either go ride back country at Snow Mass, divebomb highlands, or ride super pipe and rails at buttermilk

Problem solved.

This is true. At Whistler it's $75 - $100 for a day pass. Sometimes you can slip a $20 to the lifty at the bottom, and as SS said, don't drop below mid-mountain for the rest of the day. But you really should pay for a lift ticket, it's not a terrible way to spend your money.

Canyons and Brighton have awesome back country too. Brighton is amazing for just going out through the trees, off of cliff, riding rough shit with lots of up and down, so tons of floating jumps.

 

[ucunc156]

back country as in the side country area in the canyons of the 9990 lift with all the warning signs. unfortunately that is a bit above my ability level. as i said, i top off at some of the honeycomb trails in terms of ability.

 

[Rhood]

I don't think you guys understand.

He can't justify paying it. He can justify using the lift, he just can't justify paying for it.

Help him with his justification issues.

Does he have good cardio?
How much can he bench?

 

[Lost Limb**]

Are you using two milk cartons tied to your feet for skis?

 

[dc007]

Yeah the slopes take care of themselves so you should just ride for free. Buy a ticket you cheap bastard.

If you don't wanna Pay the 40$, then take up a sport like running. All you need are a pair of running shoes, or run barefoot if you want and some shorts. If you look like me, just imagine Brad Pitt in Fight Club, you don't even need a shirt. There problem solved you cheap fuck. All you need are a pair of shorts. 😃
