How about that skill assessment. Are we going to have the privilege of having skills tested again?
Its funny, but as someone who has never failed the assessment, (and don't think that I will), am I the only one that doesn't see why taking 5 minutes out of the entire summers worth of riding is not a big deal?
Blue has been continuing to advance the bike park in the right direction and does THE MOST to support gravity riding in Ontario. The only thing they ask of us is a trail pass and an assessment... seems to me like we are getting a pretty damn good deal!
Thanks blue for making gravity great again! Can't wait to get out on the trails with everyone!
I suppose the assessment does work, I went on opening weekend last year with my seasons pass, and I couldn't pass the assessment. Made it pretty clear to me I shouldn't be riding those trails. Unfortunately for me I never returned all season basically due to the embarrassment. Wasted my seasons pass, and didn't pedal any of my bikes for the rest of the year. I pretty well let that experience ruin my entire year of riding. (my own fault)

Legit complaint ^
You and my GF both rode those jump trails fine... then were pushed away by a stupid test. I snuck my gf on H-regular and h-twenty many times... (yea, what ya gonna do about it blue ? lol ) She did fine, as I know you did too. After she failed the test, she was not overly pumped on DH either. It's not really an issue of being good or not, it's about not being a f*cking retard and knowing your own limits.
anyways, I'm just getting excited about the same arguments to come back to this chat.
anyone else think that H-twenty is bumpy n shit ? I heard they are opening a new lift finally near happy valley so the ride over is further, and they made the path silty and more uphill. Also heard from a very reliable source that pass price will go up YET again, and the bicycle inspection will be back and will be much more strict.... trade in those norco's before its too late everyone !
