Is it possible to have all posts from, say, one or two threads deleted? Totally random & has nothing to do with the subject matter here. Tks












not serious

AFAIK, If you posted it, then you can delete it.
You cannot delete other's posts...unless...
If you started a thread, then deleting it will wipe out the whole thread.
Which many posters find highly amusing, as you can prolly guess.

"we are not restricting people, we are restricting equipment"

"we are not restricting people, we are restricting equipment"

I get it, so that is why the local muni golf course won't let me play Frisbee golf. That is just not fair, its a public place.

[skifishbum]

the preferred and politically correct term
is disc golf
frisbees are those things the hippies used to toss at the forest preserves
fore the hacky sacks

[bigdude2468]

I stand corrected, too much patchouli on the brain.

"we are not restricting people, we are restricting equipment"

Hey man,

Have you gotten any of my messages/ are you still interested in doing the FKS sale? Would appreciate it if you'd let me know either way.

[Bobcat Sig]

Nobody cares that you can't ride Alta.

There, I said it.

Incorrect. I care. So do at least 3 other people. And that doesn't even include the plaintiffs!

Nope, that is not a even close comparison, you old man. Snowboard and ski are the ONLY approved devices to ride lifts.....world wide. MOnoSkis, which will be used soon in the trial, will basically destroy Alta's old fucks with humor and irony and snowboards will win.

I don't snowboard, never will, but even a cursory glance at the arguments supporting this ban (on public land) makes it look pretty sad. If they only want to ban equipment, and only from the lifts, they should show that snowboards are more dangerous on the lifts. After all, if snowboarders are free to hike then banning them from the lifts is no protection from any danger they create on snow since they can still get up there. Obviously we all know that banning a piece of equipment is a ban in practice of those who choose to use that equipment, and the veil is thin. Of course it's a business decision, as Alta admits, and that business decision is to cater to a small but relatively underserved market of skiers with an irrationally overstated dislike for snowboarders.

If the issue is blocking the traverse just ban that; if snowboarders can't keep moving pull their passes and profit.

I kinda hate that I find this interesting enough to post, but I do abhor the American habit of taking our hating on others' preferences and turning it into control. And then justifying that using the most twisted logic. It's a far more harmful habit than weed, alcohol, processed goose liver and mutton felching combined. Worse even than snowboarding--or so I hear.

That would work if skiers could keep their shit moving. Alta is probably better than most places but it's not like everyone who skis Alta has actually figured it out. They'd be better off requiring snowboarders to carry poles so they could push like everyone else.

That was kind of my point: apply the real requirement equally to everyone or it's just a sham to hide behind.

Finally some logic. The old crustys in TGR can't see anything but red with their make believe hate of snowboarders....such a strange form of Douchebaggery.

Skier walks into the cabin, leaves the door open (12F) and everyone says "Shut the door", he shouts back, "please?"....fucking skiers, or was it a snowboarder......

Skiers are blocking the traverse too....no one wants to admit it....ever.

So what happens when you show up to play Common Ground in cut-off jeans, a tank top and metal spikes, or anyone of three?

[flatNshallow]

Ok, so where is the brave soul who will mount snowboard hard boots on sideways risers on the fattest pow ski they can find just to challenge the equipment angle?

"Hey man, it's a ski!"

[Bobcat Sig]

Incorrect. I care. So do at least 3 other people. And that doesn't even include the plaintiffs!

Cool, five of you.

Still, nobody cares.

Also, sarcasm.

Do you ski too?

Why is this one area, so close to at least 5 other areas so important...? Just go to the Bird, I actually liked it better than Alta myself.
Entitled, elitist whiners, always wanting what they can't have
Since when can't a business enforce the age old wisdom of "we reserve the right to refuse service to anyone"?
You have 477 (ish) out of 480 (ish) areas to ride at; why all the butthurt. Whiny brat syndrome?
I could give less than half a fuck either way, this has gotten completely blown out of proportion by the proverbial "squeaky wheel".

Will you finally STFU after they throw this out again?

I think similar to gay couples suing wedding vendors who refuse them service, it is just to make a point.
