    2017 Long Board Day - Alpental - Suturday, April 22nd



    Mark your calendars, Long Board Day 2017 at Alpental will be dropping Saturday, April 22nd.

    As always, the location remains the same, Lot 4 in the Alpental Valley, against the South edge snow bank.
    Come prepared to ski and partake with the usual suspects.

    Equipment requirements:
     Skis must be 210cm + if you identify as a male or have male hardware
    200cm + skis for women
    if you are riding a board or something akin to a Mystery Air, or the biggest gun you can find
    NO MONO SKIERS or SNOWLERBLADERS. Sorry, but you are the enemy

    This is not a costume party, however period correct clothing that compliment the vintage of your long boards will be celebrated.

    Le International is calling, what are you waiting for?

    Woooooo!!!

    I'm still longboardless, maybe I'll buy some cheap eBay dh skis this year.

    Also, I have two free lift tickets for non Alpental regulars

    I assume a keg will be worth wrangling? I'm on call for work that weekend but I'll make it do, even if it means Lot 4 guard duty

    Why the monoski racism?

    If you risk double femur snappage by rocking a 210 mono, you should be able to join the party.

    I'll let the GFofLBD respond, as I perpetuated the rules set by him...
    But, from my perspective, two different skill sets that have little in common and look nothing like the other.

    Also correct - sort of.

    He's participated twice in the last 6 ~ 11 years, and his skis make appearances too.

    Thanks for the forgiveness. Looks clear this year. Will do my best. I'm not in that pic am I? I think it's been more than twice tho. If anyone needs boards let me know. I'd rather avoid hauling them all up there if they won't get boots in them.

    Think of it more like getting a pass for being an outstanding father.

    What about the franchises?

    Now that hop has left the bay area, the kw00d kr3w seems pretty limp.

    And with LemonBoy familied out of the digistream, is Colorado doing anything in his absence?
