Oh no. Quarter panel core shot. Just fill the quarter panel with p-tex and it'll be good as new :D

As of present, I've reinforced it with old kite lines and gorilla tape (used for sail repairs). Then some duct tape to blend to paint color :). I've been waiting for a sign to get a minivan. Not sure if this is it but... This did happen in a church parking lot... :shock:

Ouch!! Sorry to hear that Mike! Ding stick should do the trick. If not, then yes it's a sign to get that minivan.

This morning's rating was 1. One car fell off the road into the ditch :lol:

The chair of the day was Raven. Even at noon, the wait was a big fat zero 8-)

Day 51 - First day on skis after 2 yrs - trying to learn how to carve ... long way to go.

Good fun riding with Mike and LeopardSkin. Stayed on the Raven Chair avoiding the long wait times on Eagle and Lions.

Day 52 - Wet snow perfect to keep families away from Cypress ... but not me and LeopardSkin with almost zero wait times. Fun slushy groomers perfect for working on carving with skis.
