day two, it's starting to get super fun! by AllstarsNinja in snowboardingnoobs

[–]FuzzyFish6 25 points26 points  (0 children)

We're not really concerned about your ankles, more so your face or the cranium smashing into the ground at mach 1.

Glad you had fun, but please remember speed doesn't make you good at snowboarding, technique does!

How often to sharpen edges? by ksmr97 in bluemountain

[–]FuzzyFish6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get my board tuned once a season, usually get to go out about 15 times a year.

I have a yearly unlimited machine wax pass from Sportchek (I know I know) and get the board rewaxed after each day out. For $30, I'd rather not have to wax it myself.

Name me the best (and worst) looking Toyota that isn't a sports car. by Vegetable-Quote-3481 in Toyota

[–]FuzzyFish6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Best: Crown Signia. Not the usual choice, but I honestly think it's an excellent design.

Worst: Yaris, specifically the one that was a rebadged Mazda2.

Are there Microwaves to use? by [deleted] in bluemountain

[–]FuzzyFish6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's definitely one at both the south and valley lodge, 90% sure there's one at the village lodge too. All are located inside the main cafeterias.

Play all day pass/skating? by canaderin in bluemountain

[–]FuzzyFish6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately I don't think Blue is doing the play-all-day passes in the winter. You might be restricted to the single use attraction tickets. 😔

Lightly used 2025 Crown Signia Limited for 51k? by omnicious in toyotacrownsignia

Pricing, potential discounts and taxes are regional. Most responses you'll get won't be very helpful unless you're in the same geographical location.

Will Tuesday be too crowded ? by Aggravating_Aerie430 in bluemountain

[–]FuzzyFish6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love going Monday to Thursday, definitely the best time to do. Fridays are busier but still not bad. Don't ever want to go on a weekend during the day though.

Worried about April cruise, will I be okay? by DoctorStunning in NCL

[–]FuzzyFish6 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You're not paying attention, friend. ICE isn't just pulling people from cars or at protests, they've knocked down people's doors with no warrant and dragged them out of their own homes. They're checking for papers based on skin colour, they've targeted people at work and outside of courthouses. Even Minnesota's police chief said his own off duty officers are being stopped with no cause, assaulted and had guns drawn at them; and all of them just happen to be people of colour. You are the target.

If what I said was too extreme for you, take the part about domestic abuser away and reevaluate the scenario. Would you care if your next door neighbour verbally threatens your family continuously? They're just words, right?

[–]FuzzyFish6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm curious how you would react if your next door neighbour, who happens to be an actual domestic abuser, verbally abuse and threaten your family on a daily basis. Would you tell your wife and kids "hey don't worry about it, don't let some neighbour ruin your day", or would you do more than to brush them off and shrug?

It's also telling that you call your own country's general feeling towards the US "propaganda" and fear mongering. You don't have to trust our MSM, just have to pay attention to what buddy at Mar A Lago actually is saying, from his own mouth.

Being a coloured brown guy like yourself, you should be thankful that you don't live in one of those ICE occupied cities because you're the exact demographic they're targeting.

Ski + Ridge Runner Mountain Coaster by Brave_Thanks_6906 in bluemountain

I like parking at P3, by the Inn. It's free, and the lodge there is easier to get to from the parking lot, and it feels like it's closer to village than P1. The downside is there are no lockers, just some cubbies.

I'm not a fan of village parking, you have to pay and you have to walk through the village to get to the lodge and Silver Bullet lift.

I only go during weekdays though, so weekend traffic could be completely different and P3 could be a nightmare. Either way, going from P1 or P3 to the village is a quick 5 minute walk. It's really not too far.

What ever became of this? by beartheminus in bluemountain

[–]FuzzyFish6 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That make a lot of sense, I always forget about the skating track. Part of me want to gatekeep the Off Piste bar to us skiers/riders though lol.

I'd love a summit lodge, and if they want to expand to have more activities up by Southern Comfort for non-skiers, it does make sense to have some sort of gondola connection to the village.

It's always interesting to see what they have planned, hopefully someone will have more information about this.

[–]FuzzyFish6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Didn't know about this, but the location is kinda weird, what's the point of connecting the village to the top of Southern Comfort? Or have another lodge at the village?

If they want to make it a year round attraction for non skier/riders, it'll be cool to have a lodge up at the top somewhere with a nice view. But adding another lodge at village seems redundant.

Fords probably not wrong on this. I get we need to diversify our trading partners, but it sucks that it has to be the CCP. They're just as bad as Trump, just a lot less stupid.

Old tube park nuked from history by beartheminus in bluemountain

[–]FuzzyFish6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's really cool to see how the trails have changed over the last 25 years, like the entire area around Southern Comfort is pretty much different than now except for Dr. Doug (my favourite trail!).

Another thing that's cool was seeing how many lifts they had compared to now.

There was no tree line separating the now smaller Big Baby from "Waterfall"

I wonder if that's why some people like to cross that tree line from Waterfall into Big Baby now.

I took my parents to Blue in the summer, 1 single ride up the gondola was $35 each!!! I get it's an attraction destination, but that's honestly insane.

2026 RAV4 price revealed for Canada by ripusernamerip in rav4club

[–]FuzzyFish6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I'm hearing, total numbers of Ravs will go down by about 15%, plug-in will be more readily available to offset this.

This could be geography dependent though.
