Looks like it will be just me jbay. Sorry...but that frees up 3 spots

List updated...I think there's only 6-7 spots left, so if you're on the fence you might have another week at the most to decide....I'd like to encourage all of you to keep pumping this thing via email PM and other forums since the url has changed to splitboardlife.com!!!!

I was on the east side last weekend and the coverage was incredible!!!! The weather pattern could have us with new spring powder...or great corn conditions...but either is fantastic.

:headbang:

More goodies on the way. Will is sending his demo splitboards with pimped out Spark R&D product on them. And Venture Snowboards is also sending us some swag.

If anyone needs extra gear for themselves, family, or friends. I have a spare split, skins, and poles. And if anyone has some gear to get rid of, then bring it with you. You may find a buyer or a deal.

way to go swanny!

gear swap sounds like a good idea!

plus based on the fact that a few of us forgot things during scrubfest it would be nice to have xtra stuff just in case.

meal planning is moving along nicely. should have some nice catered spreads for fri and sat from the resto at convict lake.

josh for the cleaning crew we will need to line that up with the resort, you want i to take the handle there?

Count me in, yo.

Killer stuff guys. Dave...go for it. I asked Dennis about it when I booked and he made it sound like they might clean the kitchen but not much else...but have at it.

New additions made to the list. Tick tock.

Hey , my wife and I are in. I ll already be down there a few days prior to the fest, and she ll rendezvous with me. We don t need a bed, as we have a small rv, but we want to be included in everything else. What do you think? :thumpsup:

The Mrs. would like to join in the fun if spots are still available, looking forward to it!!!

I'm officially out gentlemen. SUPER bummed I can't make it as the Kali Party is now what I dream of all summer long, but i have to make a run for Oz to pick up a Visa so i can split legally for the next 2 years!!! :thatrocks:

May you all slay silky lines.

Holbyco...Bummer! But if it's an investment in future splittrips, I totally support ya!

Surf De Niege...sounds great! Since you guys won't be using a bed, I'm not gonna write you on the list though...I'll make sure to include you guys in the food costs (let me know if I'm wrong on this) when we're doing the math...

SDMarkus...your +1 is noted.

96Avs01 is in too (probably anyway)...!

You guys should all know that fullers20h and swanny have lined up some really great stuff as well. Make sure to thank them!

There's 3 or 4 spots left. The total price for both nights, both dinners, the hottub and all the stoke/raffle/education you can handle is $140 bucks. We'll get some basic breakfast supplies too.

To just do the meals, hot-tub, house usage, but not sleep (ie..you're camping nearby or in your car/truck/rv) it's gonna be $70.

To keep it simple, I'm asking that you pay for both nights (it's hella cheap anyway) regardless of if you'll be there for one or two.

If you want to be part of using the house/meals and haven't signed up yet, please do so ASAP at some point we have to cut it off and give the caterer a final number.

If you want to be in the house with a bed..you're running out of opportunity. There's only 3-4 slots left.

If you're wondering about conditions, let me just say that the coverage is OUTSTANDING...and there's more on the way:

TURNING TO THE NEXT DISTURBANCE ON WEDNESDAY...THIS ONE LOOKS MORE
SIGNIFICANT CWA-WIDE AS A STRONG COLD FRONT DRIVES THROUGH WITH A
MUCH MORE AMPLIFIED SYSTEM APPROACHING THE COAST. THE DISTURBANCE IS
WELL ADVERTISED IN ALL MODELS AND IS IMPRESSIVE IN THE 500 MB HEIGHT
AND SURFACE PATTERN OF THE GFS ENSEMBLE...WITH AN ANOMALY OF -2.5 TO
-3 STANDARD DEVIATIONS IN THE HEIGHTS AND A MSLP ANOMALY OF MORE
THAT 3 STANDARD DEVIATIONS BELOW NORMAL TUESDAY NIGHT AND WEDNESDAY.
IN SUPPORT OF THIS IDEA...THE ECMWF HAS A 140 KT JET STREAK AND 50+
KTS AT 700 MB BY AROUND MIDDAY WEDNESDAY AS THE COLD FRONT
APPROACHES. WITH SUCH A STRONG COLD FRONT...WE COULD BE DEALING WITH
SOME VERY STRONG WINDS INDEED WEDNESDAY. IN ADDITION...A PERIOD OF
MODERATE TO HEAVY SNOW LOOKS LIKELY FOR AT LEAST THE SIERRA.
HOWEVER...WE WILL HAVE TO WATCH FOR ANY SPLITTING OF THE UPPER LOW
WHICH WOULD KNOCK DOWN TOTALS SIGNIFICANTLY. THE GFS HAS A STRONG
JET STREAK DIGGING MUCH FURTHER SOUTH/WEST THAN THE ECMWF...WHICH
HINTS AT ATTEMPTED SPLITTING. SNYDER

More news on sponsors. Voile sent us some great stuff as usual. And Standard Films is setting us up with some of their movies, including TB9 with Dave Downings split segment. Please check them out at http://standardfilmsblackwintermovie.com/

Also, we have decided to have a raffle this year and all proceeds go to Eastern Sierra Avalanche Center. They provide us with critical avy info and need our support.
