 Poster: A snowHead
|
OK - a question. You see on TV the sorts of ski shows at resorts where people are performing tricks and such like, instructors showing off, etc etc. So my question is, does much of that happen in Whistler?
Reason I ask is Panorama was as dead as a dodo in the evenings, so I'm hoping for some more ski related entertainment!

Yes.
It all kicks off with the weekly Sunday evening Fire and Ice show, 6.30pm, skiers plaza.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

You can also ski into Moe Joe's or down the GLC staircase for late night ski related entertainment

During the day (if there is fresh powder) you will see a rocky drop-off in clear view of the lift queues for Peak chair where show-offs regularly do jumps and sometimes flips.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

On Blackcomb take a very slow ride on the Catskinner chair (there isn't an option to go fast) and you'll go over the black park where you should see some spectacular stuff.

snowball,
Yeah, last year I was stuck in the Peak line when the chair malfunctioned. We saw a group of hot-shots flying off that drop-off. The first two crashed and burned big time. The last guy then spent a full ten minutes staring down and contemplating mortality before he finally summoned up the courage.
He stuck the landing and got the biggest cheer from the liftline I've ever heard.
eddyr,
Go in April for the Ski/snowboard festival. A whole load of ski-related entertainment and non-stop partying.

Good choice January-higher chance of there not being really wet snow at the bottom!! Drier powder=bigger smiles!
