PFC 2011

I know this is way early but I was on perfect's website and I saw strong hints that only the blue lift would be open for campers.

Is this being said just so if Perfects is still open
they wont be restricted on what the public gets access to?

or

Has it been deemed, for some reason, that under no
circumstances we get the white or red lift and clydes?


Just wondering because what made PFC the most fun I have ever had skiing last year was the long line of features down clydes.

PFC 8 or INm8 as it will come to be known, is going to be as large as we can make it. This means that if we are not open to the public then PFC INm8 will be on whatever runs we deem worthy of features. If Perfect North Slopes is open to the public, then we will likely be restricted to the blue chair but we will take-over both sides to make it PFC access only. In no way (as far as I know) has Perfect North Slopes' policy changed toward PFC, so expect business as usual, which is business atypical.

I think it always says exclusive terrain on the blue chair when it gets put on Perfect's website. I hope we aren't open though, that way we can make it as big as we can.

It's March 19th and 20th, and Orange chair would be kind of dumb, way too out of the way. I believe the price is still 150, but I'm not 100% on that.

Assuming all this warm weather we are having sticks around, god forbid, would PFC be pushed up?

I doubt it, even if it gets super warm, there is a lot of snow in the area. Even if they close early, they will have plenty to push and make a sick park.

I'm starting to get mildly worried about snow. But there is still a ton in various places so farming will probably have to happen. This weather blows and is awesome all at the same time.

Hey, so what's the word on snow conditions/plans for PFC this year? Last year was my first year and I loved it, so I'll definitely be coming back this year, I was just getting stoked thinking about it and wanted an update since no one has posted in this thread since last month.

So far all things are go and we're looking ok on snow. Look for some pretty unique features that should be a blast that you haven't seen in the Midwest in awhile. We're likely going to be using Audition, Meadows, and Clyde's Superslide.

If you haven't pre-registered i would recommend doing it soon because the first 100 pre-registers get a free pair of custom PFC aviator sunglasses to go with the INm8 theme, and the camp t-shirt at no-additional cost.

No deadline to sign up, however first 100 pre-registered will get Custom PFC Aviator sunglasses and are guaranteed a PFC t-shirt. We are planning to cap camp at 200 riders so if we reach that number during Pre-Registration then there won't be any "day of" sign ups. So if anyone plans on driving far we def. recommend pre-registering!

Oh my god, I am so fucking tired from PFC right now haha.

I had an absolute blast though, and loved every second of it. Keep it up, Perfect North!

Even though my ribs are bruised, I can hardly walk, and I broke my bindings as well as Jon Reynold's it was a GREAT day. So much fun (as always).

I'm sure they'll be up as soon as they can. There's probably a few thousand pictures they'll have to sort through and upload so it might take a little bit.

Absolutely amazing, as usual.

I felt that the rails through clydes were a little clustered together and could have used a little more flow, but were overall great. My only real criticism is that the landing for the dragon tail was straight to flat ie. no landing at all. I kinda missed a bigger cigar-like cannon rail to launch off of, but that's about it.

All of the jumps were absolutely prime and I had fun learning new things. Also carving out a gap between the step up to ski through was pure genius. I'm already looking forward to the end of next season so I can go to PFC again.
