Thread: padded seats on chair 2

unreal comfort on the ride up, thick padding with fresh bungees underneath keeping em snug, texture is slightly bumpy with a bit of traction.
thanks to someone out there

Where's the like button?

i know man it's like someone cares about our comfort or something

They are awesome indeed.

alpental sure doesn't need much snow to be fun again. telling mofro how even clumps of snow at the bottom of bumps is now somewhat pleasant compared to grinding start to finish.
too bad it went to mank, going to suck once it refreezes.
every 2" helps

clogged the shit out of the ramp today as well

awwww wtf. The year I move away.

oh ya rub it in. Straight up plastic slats. Rain on 50 cms, and claggy.

rain is cleaning those newseats so my bottom stays clean

chairs had snow on them today, new snow that had to be cleaned off their freshness.
i hate sitting on this antique when it's stopped.

there was ice on those seats yesterday.

Can't wait to get my rump cradled in their padded goodness tomorrow.

chair carried a few people uphill today, but no crowds to speak of yet. light snow throughout the day.

everyday i ride chair 2 it has at least one stoppage, always wonder if it's the one that will be evact.
happy holidays

OOOOH! padded seats will definitely be nice for the all-too-often hourlong stops on the chair in pounding snowstorms....

Did you happen to notice if there's seat heaters?

What you call snow I call freezing rain.

I find that I now only want to snowboard smooth snow. Groomers or pow. You skiers can have the bumps. Especially when they are bullet proof with an inch or two of slush and an 1/8" of ice.

man I'm 20 and startin to come to the same realization. pins and needles in the knees after riding yesterday can't be too good.

but atleast my butt was padded on the ride up

It will always be Chair 2 to me, but wasn't it renamed years ago? If so, I'm glad the new name isn't be acknowledge.

Didn't you coach TAS for a period of time?

Yep, I coached both kids and some adults with TAS and raced as well when it was just Team Alps. I still meet Alpental people skiing all over the world, which is really cool to see. I love that area, but don't know if I'd ever recommend it to anyone, which is about the highest possible compliment a ski area can have.

Totally.
It's an acquired taste for sure, but once you've acquired it, you're in forever.

New marketing slogan?
"Alpental, You'll hate loving it here"

fuck you and your massive forecast dumps. enjoy maggots.

With rapidly varying freezing / snow levels. I'm not all that excited. Of course, that could be because I have a lot of work to do for the next few weeks. Gonna be relying on the lights for a while.
