As a one year countdown celebration to the Olympics, Grouse will be open for 2 days straight.

Skiing/Snowboarding: non-stop from 9am-Friday to 10pm-Sunday
** a rotating run grooming schedule will be in effect over the weekend and will be posted on our run status boards

Who plans to go? I hate Grouse.
If it was free, maybe...but still, I hate Grouse.
The only thing I'd want is if the weather is nice, for someone to capture some sick sunrise shots with some boarders/skiiers blurred in the picture or something like that.

I am planning to go snowboard @ Grouse tmr. I have never snowboarded there before.

Curious as to why you hate Grouse.

Too many tourists. Runs are very unimaginative and plain.. and filled with loads of people.

The terrain park isn't bad, when it's set up though.
[I ride Mount Seymour.]

Only time I've been to grouse was last yours 24hr event.
I'm going to try to make this one, just hope it isn't a shit day.

They should make it an OMID day!!

43MA!!

:D

grouse sucks.....

and with no new snow it sucks even harder....


last years 24hr thing was a gong show. all highschool kids thinking they were the shit just all drunk and stupid.

lol

so if i bought a lift ticket for friday... can i use that for saturday AND sunday?

What time were you there? I got there at 9pm and stayed till maybe 7-8am.
When I went to the cabin to take a piss, there was a shitload of people in cabin sleeping with shit drawn all over their face.
Some pretty funny shit, lol.

was it busy on the runs last year?

^
haha what kinda stupid question is that.

grouse sucks ass, that's where all the chinese people go and they all suck ass

last year they were open for 24 hrs i heard it was a gong show

way too many people, line ups were insane

Way to play the race card, idiot.
I'm Asian, and I go to Seymour.

I went last year for the hell of it. I'm not a fun of Grouse either (crowded, runs are too short and boring) but there isn't many opportunities to snowboard in the middle of the night.

Last year, it was really foggy and icy. For the people that went up for the sleigh rides and skating, I think both were cancelled due to the foggy conditions. Way too many people early in the night but it did get better as it hit early morning.

What I didn't like much was it seemed a little disorganized. For the friends I went with that went for the skating and sleigh ride, they didn't know it was cancelled until we got to the top. The cafeteria was closed so everyone was buying from the mini cafe thing but almost all the sandwiches and drinks were sold out. By 3am, the lodge was packed with people sleeping on the floors lol. Long lift lines were made even more annoying with drunk guys and people at the front and back of the lines throwing snowballs.

k-dub was that a joke about seymour? u dont like grouse but go to seymour instead? LOL seymour is the worse

grouse > cypress

you think grouse is better than cypress? ahahahhahahaahahahahahahahahahaahahahahahahah

cie senor

i'm planning to go on a saturday, but i'm not sure if i'm going to stay overnight..

everyone has there own preferences... on hills.

Seymour keeps it real.

There are less posers dressed up with all their gear from Westbeach like you, thinking they're hot shit on a board, but they can't even fucking carve. Would that be you up at Grouse?

Spend your time [and money] on learning how to board first, then come talk shit.

Seymour > Cypress > Grouse. But that's just a personal preference and opinion.

+1.

LOL!!! cuz all the pros board at seymour right...

i dont board anymore only back in hs, $150 y2play season pass ftw
and funny cuz i was such a jew i had a shitty board and didnt even have snowboard pants/jacket... actually i still dont

only boarded for a 2 seasons but can land back flips 360s etc no problem, BEAAATCH

with the lift @ grouse u can get wayy more runs in if u bomb down the hill same speed as cypress, and theres always tons of untouched powder trails on decent snow days, you dont even have to go early to find them

Check out snowboard videos, there's a lot of stuff filmed up at Seymour actually.
Anyways...I don't want to fight with you on the internet. So let's just leave it at this. =]

LOL GROUSE > CYPRESS?!?!?!!! LOL
omg...

you are being sarcastic right? just to be funny right? LOL :haha:

ok grouse vs cypress is subjective, a lot of my friends that have been boarding since they were toddlers all prefer grouse > cypress, to be honest its not too different i just hate the chair cuz it takes fuckign forever.. and i also havnt been in like 4 years to cypress

seymour tho is just a phat drop... lil kids go to seymour to learn how snowboard/ski, when ppl talk about hitting up the slopes on the weekend, seymour isnt even in the equation

and scheng... dont talk.. why dont you go make some more threads about how to sit next to girls and initiate conversation on the bus LOL

Cypress > Seymour > Grouse

Grouse is too busy.
I prefer Cypress myself
