    I just started working this season at my local resort. We have the same Demac Lenko guns. It's a cool job, I like it. I'm terryfied about the high preasure hoses, but other than that... pretty sweet (we pump 40 bars of water pressure).

      Dragos, I worked at Alta on their snowmaking crew for several years and agree, high pressure hoses are good to be cautious of. But if you ensure they are properly attached, you can add a bungee cord to hold down the clasps (helps keep them properly closed when they are not under pressure), ensure you flag/bamboo mark the hoses so skiers to skier over them, and slowly open the ball-valve and you should be good!

      Legaceybeats it’ll cost you a water reservoir a pumping station a pipeline 480 high voltage line. The snowgun is the cheap part

      alfasud1972 not some humans, some gear. If a snowboarder went there and tried to ski, they wouldn't scan your brain and say, oh you're a snowboarder, can't come in here. They're just banning a type of gear. I don't agree with their decision but I'm just telling you like it is.

      @tosic4097 7 лет назад +1

      Corah or people like me and my friends who like to ski. I don't have a problem with snowboarders and idk why any skiers do. If was up to me Alta would allow snowboarders. The arguments that skiers have for not liking snowboarders are retarded. Like "they make too much noise". I've heard that shit before.

      "elitist bum" that's an oxymoron if I've ever heard one; keep in mind there are plenty of rowdy skiers living in cars and working shit jobs

    Worst ski resort in North America NO SNOWBOARDERS!!! Talk about discrimination

    • @burtmacklin3215
      @burtmacklin3215 3 года назад

      They aren’t discriminating they are simply banning some gear. They will gladly accept snowboarders if they ski. I support the decision and I hope more resorts ban snowboarding too.
