We here at the Basin are always looking for the latest technology.  This year Salomon is kicking off the season with their new Salomon BBR ski.

They are having an exclusive demo and VIP party that we would like to extend to our loyal customers on December 2nd and 3rd. The on-snow demo will be both Friday and Saturday starting first thing in the morning. The VIP party starts at Killington’s Long Trail Pub, then moves down to the Wobbly.

For those of you that would like to join us, please respond to Christine@basinski.com She will be able to set you up with the event’s credentials.

Despite being told it wouldn’t happen until Wednesday, Killington dropped the ropes from TOP TO BOTTOM around 2:15 today. We have a whole bunch of smiling faces rolling through the shop as we speak!!!

55  and Sunny.  For those of you who have not met Jonathan yet, he is our new Online Guru.  He came on board this fall to help me out with running basinshopping.com, which will allow me to get back on the floor again.  I’m SUPER STOKED about that.  When you see Jonathan, you will probably recognize him as he has been in town for the last 16 years.

Seeing as how it’s Sunday, I am slinging Snowboard information downstairs, however my man Jonathan was happy to send down today’s snow report for me!  Thanks man!!! His report:  Soft, spring like conditions today with plenty of corn snow to be had.  Lift lines seem to be quite a bit shorter than yesterday, 5 minutes waits were the average.  The trails, like yesterday were still pretty empty, with little traffic on them.  Today was just a nice mellow, sunny day on the hill!
