So only a week or so ago the chairlift was broken but this week I went back to check things out at the ski hill in Wengen and found that not only has the lift been repaired but there's a bunch of new ski runs made! And the runs have little signs with the symbols on them (double diamond, etc) just like a real mountain! Alot of them are long and wind around the entire mountain. Nice work LL! Was there an announcement about this that I missed?

Yes, this should definitely go on Pathfinder's List of Cool Stuff.

The ski boots come with the snowboard... which reminds me... is the free Linden made snowboard still available at the bottom of the hill? I'm at work, so I can't check. I had one in my inventory from ages ago that I use. But there should be a dispenser next to the base of the ski lift. If not I will drop you one Nala.

Thanks for posting about this Ingrid -- I wish there had been a public announcement, I've felt those snow sims have been underrated for awhile.

Er, is there even a snowboard dispenser up there yet? :)

I'm not sure! I'm at work and I can't get in world to check. If there isn't, I'm sure it's just an oversight as there was one there before.

Yeah, my recollection is there wasn't one there for a long time... but then I IMed Ben Linden and he graciously hooked me up with a set. The boots by themselves have great art design by Eric I believe and they make great fetishwear even without the board. But you didn't hear this from me... or DID YOU??? ;)

ANYONE WHO WANTS A FREE SNOWBOARD BY BEN AND ERIC LINDEN,
JUST INSTANT-MESSAGE ME INWORLD

I'M HANDING THEM OUT...

Rez the snowboard and look within the contents... read the instructions and explore, it's also got some cool trick anims you can use... if you buy contents from yourself, you will end up with a folder with all the goodies.

Nice Torley! I didn't realize you could mod them!

Lindens! We need a snowboards dispenser at the base of the hill and the top! There's nothing there and I was asked several times in world last night where people can get them.

Yeah, I've asked Ben about the dispenser too. Or at least that his goodies are in the Library so they're easily accessible to EVERYONE. The Library could be a superduper way to distro content.

Again, if anyone is in want of snowboards in the meantime, feel free to IM me inworld and I'll hook ya up. Cheerio! :)

Torley I can't get in game but if you could send me a piar that would be awesome. I'd love to be able to go to the slopes and give my friends boards to if they needed them.
