Aww, I have an online boyfriend now. Yay! Hi online boyfriend!
danish, I'm pretty sure I'm older than you and also grew up in Colorado, but why does growing up in Colorado give you more of a right to an opinion than anyone else?
The whole point in a site with user-generated reviews is that it gives people a balanced perspective by offering a variety of different opinions from a variety of people, with a variety of backgrounds. That way people can read through all of the reviews and see what matches them best. I feel that someone like me (who wants great freeriding and no crowds) deserves a balanced opinion of the resort just as much as someone like you, or someone like angrysnowboarder, or xadness.
And if you ride so much in CO, I'm surprised you've never heard anything negative about Breck? There's a whole crapload of people who get the WP/Copper pass because they feel that Breck and Keystone suck. Not to mention people at Loveland, who talk shit on all of Summit County. Everyone who as an opinion that's different from yours is not an idiot. They just disagree with you.
And by the way, not sure if you were alive in the 80's, but ever since then, "family friendly" has been the typical business model of most of these destination resorts (with the exception of places like Aspen who aim for the high brow party crowd). They don't make money off poor ski bums. They make money off families with disposable income to blow on 4 bedroom condos and equipment rentals. Why do you think Keystone put a bunny hill at the top of the gondola? So the stoners could have something to ride when they're totally wasted?

Overly butt hurt good burn.... Talk about acting like a 15 year old. And for the record fuck stick most people refer to Breckenridge as "Brecky" I guess your just to old and not hip enough to know what the kids are calling stuff these days.... And I am a 15 year old stuck in a 25 year olds body.... Who wants to act like an "adult" That's no fun.... And I have a house in Blue River too, so not that much of a commute....Its nice not to have to work or do anything but ride during the winter
So before you start assuming stuff maybe you get your facts straight. You can have what ever opinion you want, but if your not a native Coloradoan, keep that to your self..... Out of starters opinion means dick to anyone that really matters. The Stone was not one of the last to adopt snowboarding, maybe in Colorado but as of this year Taos would officially be one of the last... So maybe you should check up on your history my friend! I am done arguing with you man... Your killing my Whistler vibe and its pretty lame.... So anyways be an Angrysnowboarder, not the chill vibe someone who loves the sport would have, but hey that's just my opinion!

play nice, kids. i'm sure y'all can have a nice civilized discussion without calling each other "fuck sticks".
I tried to be nice! Next time I'll try not to be so negative with my bad reviews? Except I'm not sure how to write a positive negative review. But it seems to get some people all wound up... who knew it was so wrong to dislike something?
No a fuck stick is a nice way to call some one a fat wet used douche bag! And I am not wound up just cant stand dumb people.... I didn't mean to start a big ass fight... and you are full on able to make a positive bad review, its ok to dislike something but even in that case you could toss something positive about it..... Like I dislike the angry snowborder dude, but he prob is a cool dude when he is kckin it with all his fager friends....
why would someone use a used douche bag for those purposes. That just sounds like it'd give you some kind of infection.
And I did toss something positive in, exactly like your example - I said I heard it has a good park!

Oh thats right I forgot the 10% of people that were actually born in this state actually matter. Heaven for bid anyone else has an opinion that doesn't shine out the ass of the native.
I think you need to read this dumbass. http://www.angrysnowboarder.com/2008/12/what-makes-you-local.html
Also any time you're actually up here you stupid front ranger you can come kick it with me and my "fager" friends. Can't miss us because we're the ones that aren't in the lodge and actually go up and kill it.
You're a silly silly child.

Good sell on your little "blog" that"s what this is about right? you were wating for the perfect moment to sell your speel on the internet... Awesome man good luck with that.... For all the people that don't want to read what the angry snowboarder took so much time to write, skip it.... This is a small exert from his page....

Chances are if you've ever been to a real resort area you've noticed that prices seem overly steep compared to where you're from. Now if you've partaken in the lifestyle of being a resort town "bum" then you may or may not have experienced the locals discount. But much like the title what makes you a local?
Now that Christmas is over I've been encountering an abundance of people coming to my place of employment asking for the locals discount. Now if I've never seen you before and you still can't pronounce my name right when its written on my name tag plain as day, makes me believe that you're a local? Its something that perplexes me as to why people think they're a local. Is it because you own/ rent a house here, is it the fact you're newly issued drivers license says you are, or is it the fact that you just wish to belong to the inner sanctum of us mountain folk?
A friend of mine says you're truly a local when you don't give a shit about living here and are completely over it and want to move. Now I don't agree with that but I will say you're a local when the things that bother all the new people moving here don't get to you. Like the lack of bread and milk at the grocery store, idiots that can't drive, long lift lines during peak season, and the general lack of courtesy from tourists.
I have noticed that the kook factor of people that want the locals discount. Last night I had 2 guys keep saying to me but we're real homies and we're down. Ok you're a 45 year old suburban white guy with a son who thinks he's gangster. I am a long haired, handle bar mustached, metal head. Does it look like I care if you're a "homie", fuck no. The better one is the person that wants the locals discount on something thats already 50% off. Huh you're getting 50% off and you still want more and yet no one here has ever seen you before. When I lived in Steamboat and was working at a shop up there this guy brought up a grip load of stuff to buy and puts it on the counter. He then asked me for the locals discount and whipped out the temporary drivers license they issue. The damn thing had been issued that morning. I was like so you think because you just moved here you get a discount. I laughed in his face and said you're going to have to spend a bit more money with us before I'll consider giving you a discount.
I've never once asked for the locals discount in anywhere that I've lived. If I get it cool its an added bonus, if I don't its cool cause I was expecting to pay just that. Generally at the restaurants and shops I frequent I do get a hook up. Awesome, I'll tip more cause they hooked me up or what not.
Ok cool you decided that mountain town living was a good idea but you're bummed at the higher cost of living. News flash people the higher cost of living comes associated with the option of living up here. Its a give and take yes I pay more in rent than my friends in Denver but I can walk out my door and see Keystone and I have 5 resorts all within a short radius. People just need to learn their place.

Wow that's all I can come up with Wow..... I am sure glad I fall into the 10% he speaks of because Jesus... Really are you going to buy into this ass holes speal? I wouldn't and I am a true local... Angrysnowboarder will always be a foreign national on any Colorado MTN.... but seems to think that he actually has something important to say... LOL LOL LOL.... god I am rolling around in Canada right now laughing my ass off, as are all my buddies who are reading what this ass has to say... Really I mean come on dude get over your self.. I am sorry I am not cool enough to have my own gay ass web page that contains nothing but bull shit... It really makes me almost pee a little reading your blog... That's how hard me and my friends we laughing... Classic man thank you for that really it's been a slow night and we needed a good laugh! Good luck with your blog I hope you do well..... Bwahahhahhahhahhahhahahhahahhahahh and in case you didn't get that the first time BWAHAHAAHAHAHHHAHAHHAHHAHAHAH BWAHAHHAHAHHHAHHAHAHHAHHA.... I will be back at keystone on Friday ( from Whistler) so lets ride ass wipe... We"ll see who actually "kills it" and I was tryin to give you props man... You should take it when you can get it, cuz I am sure that you don't "get it" all that often! But if your game I am pull some sick shit on you and your "crew"........ I am so glad this foreign national can call me a child and try and pull rank on me, Awesome like really awesome... Can't wait to white wash this ass swab....
And for Shreadbeatties, yes the infection is the purpose and half the insult of a used D-bag.... And I apologize for my initial attack on you I am reading and relpaying via my blackberry so sometimes I miss some of the text.... I no longer have any beef with you and what you said about Brecky.... You and me are good in my book! As for the dude that found it necessary to start some sort of "war" over what I said Fuck your self.... Dude really I mean if you can call me a kid then you must be way older than the rest of us.... And that's ok I mean my dad tries to ride with me and I am ok with that!
Hope all is well in the States! I will be home soon!
Ride safe!
