i just got a call from my boy dan and Tim windell is officially the biggest douchebag ever and fired the entire video crew for apparently no legit reason at all suddenly, besides more profit for him. 6 years of dedication with bearly and pay for thousands of hours of hard work every summer and its just done like that.. He just fucked over my friends lives at least temporarily and the chillest Boss I have ever had, is now unemployed with bills and rent piling up and will probably have to move. Banned from windells park and campus , summer ruined for all the filmers who now need to find a way to get home and will loose hundreds of dollars. The only reason I am not in the same situation is cause i broke my cam and had to take this summer off. Anyways respect to everyone who chose not to support this guy and attend other summer camps that still have some morals

you apparently don't know the head of the windells park crew.... i almost got punched in the face when he didn't recognize me and thought i was 'poaching his terrain' cause i was wearing different shit
this is all rumor bullshit. There is a real story and legitimate reasons but you obvious know dont them.
The park guy that was there last year and in years past is gone, but yes he is a roided out crazy guy.

honestly stupid responses like this piss me off cause you have no idea what you are talking about. This effects me cause its MY JOB that i wont have next year... and my friends situation right now.
yeah, had to leave quick so i couldn't finish my respone - just saying that you should probably talked it through with your friend before posting here and giving windell's a bad rep which may or may not be justified - i think it sucks that you lost your job and all but it seems like one conversation caused you to create this thread and you should make sure that he certainly got fired and banned for no reason - without adequate proof i don't really have reason to believe what you are saying, even though it could be completely true - just come up with some more legit facts and i'll believe it

I don't. They made the paying campers ride the public park. WTF....they paid for a private park! It seems pretty sketch. I'd fucking bitch the owner out.

that has nothing to do with the fact of how good their park will be. they got 3ft of snow in JUNE. im guessing the reason they had no park for sesh 1 is their park is so big it is taking time to finish. and yes i agree with you, its complete bullshit to have no park for a session. thats just wrong to do to the campers. but still, i bet the park will be good

i know u and doubt u remember me. but u are the guy that backdoor travis. and I wouldnt talk about roided out... cause u were way bigger then mike was. and mike was one of my best boss's yet. u are just using tims power to help launch ur clothing. so be honest... U EVEN SAID THE PARKS WERE THE BEST LAST YEAR!!!
His job is to keep ppl out f the park that arent supposed to be there... so yeah he can be a asshole. thats his job to be one. if u were in his shoes what would u do? try kicking out 100+ppl perday and see how nice u are.

When I was there last year I was hitting the big table, and it was just me, and one other camper. The coaches weren't even helping him.... just sitting at the bottom and saying things after he went. No one around him to get him stoked or offer pointers before dropping.
that's why there's an entirely new ski coaching staff hired this year....
and there is way more to this story, some people made some mistakes and this did indeed result in their being fired. but there is a lot of shit being talked on Windells in this thread that is both exagerated and coming from a source that doesn't know what's up. Windells is the funnest place on earth, and i am currently loving my job, and i'm working very closely with my campers! as all the coaches are. so don't say shit when you don't know shit!

So why do people pick windells over the other camps that have lifts. Isn't windells hike only?

(my parents wouldn't ever let me go out around whistler alone). i also pick windells because of all of the pros coaching there. all of my friends who go there. oh and girls haha. if i was allowed to go to whistler i might go jsut because of the park thats it

no worries.... It's just interesting gossip while the rest of us are sweating our balls or mammaries off at home. I do remembering thinking to myself a couple months ago....... "damn windells hooked up a lot of kids this year"
So I wonder........ With new coaches and such.. Did Windells just thin the weeds? IN other words, you know the park staff at your home mountain who is on staff every year but doesn't do shit with a rake or shovel? You know like.... Get rid of the fat and lazy and bring in some young and hungry eager snow lovers?

yeah he is... thats why tommy, travis,sammy and all the other ski coaches were stoked on mike casue he understands the needs and like of skiers. ( he builds parks for a living year round and was one of the head coaches before running the parks) Now its all boarders on the crew this year... and all the MAIN ski coaches left.

The problem is. They fired a bunch of young filmers from the eastcoast who spent their own money to go to Oregon the week they got out there for absolutely no reason (so I hear).

well thats why they brought mike and his crew in last year casue the old crew wasnt puuliing wieght. they hadnt touched features that could have been up out in like 5-6 years. we put ou ever feature windells owns. like 20 rails/boxes plus all the snow features. our crew worked our ass's off and it showed... not like other resorts lazy crews that sit around.

So what happened to the people that had to ski the public park? Did they get some kind of rebate or something? That's some amateur hour right there.

Here is what one of the Windells filmers said on SnowPerception.
"Well Tim said that Eric (video dude) sold copies of the session
video to the campers, when they were supposed to be given free to the
campers. Honestly though, that was a stupid thing to do, but to be
fired because of this obviously isn't the right solution. I don't think
Tim Windell is a complete fool, he actually seemed like a really nice
guy when I met him. I just think he has to much going on sometimes and
seems like an idiot. I think there's just something both Tim and Eric
aren't telling us and that they must have some kind of shitty past."

well it's safe to say that i made a smart decision not to go to windells this summer because i thought 2gs wasn't worth like 4 or 5 days of skiing when i can have backyard session for free
when in doubt....lay it out

Typically where there is smoke there is fire. no doubt.
Also, typically when there is rain there are clouds you see?
well I'm already signed up and i would have loved to go to monmentum or coc but between airfare and camp prices windells is it for me. It sucks to hear about this shit but camp can be what you make it. If you have a positive attitude and go to ski i think it would be sick regardless. If not i'm really nervous right now.

^I agree that tim is an ass hole, he has no respect for skiers/ the skiing part of the camp what so ever. but tons of shenanigans do go on at windells. ex. last year the grenade guys got drunk/ high and grafited the burton van. tim had them arrested.
tims a scary dude... espeicially his attack dog, but still he has to have had a reason.
oh yeah, i just went THERE
and then came back, cuz there was no skiing

Even though ive heard about some lame things pertaining to windells, i love the fact that kids will drop major coin (or have their parents do it) to spend like a week skiing, and they have to hike the fucking park, stay ~40 min away from the mountain at the arc (BOB is nice but shheeeeit), and yea, unless you're one of the unfortunate to ski only the public park, which in my opinion is the gayest shit ever
There are some missing facts to this story. As I understand it, the video crew works for Eric, who is under contract with Tim. They aren't Windells employees per se. Also, it was my understanding that Eric was supposed to provide the video for free to every camper this season. If it is in fact true that Eric was selling videos, that would be a violation of his agreement... and if it couldn't be resolved, I can understand why Tim would not want to work with Eric... which would mean all of Eric's employees would be out of a job.

no we didn't get anything, i'm hoping we might get some sort of discount for next year or something, but i hiiiiiiighly doubt that.
that's fucked up, if you or your parents paid by credit card you might consider disputing the charges. I feel way worse for the kids who paid for camp and got screwed. You guys bitching about working at a ski camp for free all summer should just consider yourselves lucky, or stupid.
