igneous nordic ski?
I'm sure that I could ski them but doubt highly that I'd like them. Mike can make a set of sticks to fit anyone.
Anyone.
Then there was the 7' tall swallow tail snowboard for the giant Polynesian guy.
Izzat a recent pic? he back in the shop?
Hey guys, I realize this is a long shot but here it goes…
The situation: I use my PTO every year to ski everyday with my 8 year old and my fiancé. We live in Pinedale and all 3 of us get season passes at White Pine. Unfortunately due to lack of snow, White Pine is not looking like it’ll open anytime soon. I work in Jackson and have access to a corporate pass for the ghee, I also am a paid patroller at White Pine on the weekends. I’m pretty sure I can get a discounted ghee day pass since I patrol and I can use the corporate pass for the fiancé….I’m curious if anyone here might have a hook-up for a pass for my little girl. I know it’s a reach, but we’ve already spent our pass budget for WP season passes for the girls and the trip over for a day or two has its costs too. It wouldn’t be a huge deal to wait out the snow, but outside of summer, my daughter is only here for her Christmas break (divorced). If anyone here has a hook-up on a discounted pass, I can pay in lots of free beer (perk of my weekday job). Thanks in advance for the read.
Edited to add, I could also throw in a sick pair of BD 01 tele bindings if that’s your thing

I gots no hookups at the ghee but maybe some of our Spudrovians will have an angle. Getting an 8 year old on snow with Dad, in trade for beer sounds like winning to me.

saw that one on IG today, i wonder the rocker profile and core layup. would, and could, be an awesome ski.

Anytime between the 27th-8th, not greedy even just a day would be sick, just don’t want her to get skunked during her break due to a late winter. She skied 18 days with us last winter despite spending the school year with a non-skiing mom, she looks forward to it every year. We were really hoping our resort would eventually fill out, but our last ski patrol email chain was not optimistic about opening anytime soon and the forecast is bleak for us unless something changes.
Hey, no Targhee connections here unfortunately, but noticed White Pine pass holders get three free days at Snowking in case you missed it:

I'd also be happy to donate a little coin to get you guys on the slopes at GT if you pm me your PayPal. Love that you are keeping the ski stoke alive with your girl

That’s incredibly generous and I appreciate the offer, but not necessary. We’ll hit up snowking if that’s our only option. She’s just a little intimidated by Snowking, especially being her first day on skis for the season. Might just take a little confidence boosting if that’s what we do, ha. She also has the contour inserts for her bindings and has skinned White Pine with me. I also have the option on leaving the fiancé at home and having the little one use my corporate pass, but it’s definitely a family thing, so that might be a bummer. It was spitting a little snow when I left pinedale for work this morning, so who knows, we might get a Christmas miracle. She absolutely loves skiing, and it’s all she wants to do. She settles for rafting every weekend in the summer, but still talks about how she’d rather be skiing. I ski 70+ days a season with a full-time job, so I think she loves that it’s a passion we share as a family.
I just want to say, I definitely knew this ask was a reach and I can’t thank you all enough for even attempting to help/toss out ideas. It’s a pretty rad we community we have here.
That’s really generous and I appreciate the offer so much, but not necessary. I definitely did not want to ask anyone for cash, was just hoping maybe someone had a hook-up. I also believe I may have found someone with a connection. You all are absolutely over the top awesome for even trying/offering to help!

Fight me.
Glad you were able to find someone with a connection! If that falls through, let me know. I have one connection that can possibly get you 50% off if that helps.I know you weren't asking for cash, but the offer stands! I hope to be a parent someday and be able to ski with my kids, so if there's any way to help someone else facilitate that now... I'm all in! Hit me up if anything changes. Also, I work for your Roadhouse sister company (FDRG), so maybe I'll see ya around!
Hopefully that Sunnyside lift opens up at Snow King while she's here. That is much more mellow

6 year olds ski for free at the the ghee.
Never had them ask for birthday just gave me a free kids ticket.
Hope that makes sense!
I definitely owe you guys some beer, shoot me a message if any of you get thirsty and I’ll try to repay all the generosity
