We should do a Colorado traincation. Who agrees
You should do a traincation in Salt Lake City and go snowboarding/skiing at the 7 resorts within 30 minutes of our gym.
Sounds like an amazing time. Im gonna be on the road a lot early 2013, but maybe in April we can meet in Aspen for a weekend of maddening snow boarding and zero Jiu Jitsu. What do yalls think? :)
Snow boarding sounds scary for some of us seniors. But I'm always down for a Traincation, no matter where. :)
Personal use is legal here in Colorado...dont forget.
It would be pretty sweet to do something on a Fri-Sat, then go up to the slopes on Sun...just sayin.
If we could get enough interest, I wouldn't mind planning this thing out.
10P Boulder would rep hard.
Fuck yeah, lets do this!
Oh fuck now I have to pull the Old Palmer Boarder X out of storage. Hope I haven't forgot how to snowboard.
I've had near death experiences on snowboards before, i think ill find a warm cozy place to drink in excess and wait for you guys to come off the mountain.
Ive been wanting to go to denver for a while now. If its planned out right we would go for sure.
If we are aiming for April, snow MAY be gone by that point. It's been a shitty year for snow.
With that said, we could always do this full-on and plan something for next year. I can talk to hotels and get all of us discounted rates, find out some cool shit to plan for down-time and for a day or two after the event.
Personally, I'd like to shoot for having it at 10th Planet Boulder- That way we have a good location to train, it'd be good exposure for Drew and 10P Boulder...and if you've been to Boulder, you know how freaking nice that place is. Aspen is beautiful, but it's a fuckin HIKE into the mountains.
Also, I'd say we shoot for a Fri-Sat or Sat-Sun training, then have a day or two reserved for everyone to hang out after.
Like the traincation in Florida I just did, I think we learned a ton just hanging out after the seminar at my house.
15 homeboys in my house was a pain in the ass and smelled like shit, but it was a damn good time.
With a little planning, a conference room could replace my bedroom...and then the hotel staff would have to pick up your fucking water bottles and candy bar wrappers (BOBBY!)
Any opinions?
if you all are serious vail is my stomping grounds we have 2 mountains(vail and beaver creek) within 10 minutes of my house, a gym to use all we want and if you gave me time cheap accomidations weed is the easiest part if its in colorado im down tho
around 4-20 is the closing date but its mother nature ive seen hardly any snow and seen 12 inchs on may 17th you never know and yes the gym is huge
This is starting to sound promising... Keep me posted guys. Me and the girls would love to come down. Gonna take up snow boarding this winter and have been looking for an excuse to get to Denver for years.
awesome.
Paul, any hook ups/leads on hotels nearby?
What about extra things to do after training if there isnt snow?
if i get numbers of people and have a time my wife does property management and could find deals for hotels,condos, maybe a couple big houses plenty of shit to do around here after hours for adults and kids at that time of year there are alot of deals going on around here before the end of the season ie restaurants and activities i know eddie said aspen but that was cool to go to aspen in the 90's vail is back now :) plus aspen is even more expensive than any other resort town especially with no hook ups
We need to rename this- Weekend at Vail Traincation in April(ish)
April would be legit, I think this would be so much fun. Lots of 10th planet heads are out there. Everyone i've met from boulder was cool as hell. It would be a blast
I'm only a couple of hours away just say the word and I'm there!
my brother lives in denver so does my girls sister and 2 brothers could be fun,maybe able to help some out on a spot to sleep:)
Im a broke south texan built for the heat, but Im down even if I gotta sleep outside on a bench :)
Lets do this guys! 10th Planet Boulder can hold a decent amount, and if need a bigger place there is Otomi in Parker, CO(who hosted Eddie seminar). Ill hit up Ranulfo(Otomi) if need be. You guys just keep me posted!
