Damage Re Visited


The dudes at Damage in Duluth MN, put on a little jam in May every year. I'm so there next year and volunteering to be the door man to keep the 'lurking Larrys' from sneaking in.

"Yes, the event costs $25. One would think this is a pretty small price to pay in considering there isn’t anywhere else in the Midwest to snowboard in fucking May. But still, you can’t just throw 200+ snowboarders onto one giant patch of snow and expect not to hear a little pissing and moaning or to catch a couple of lurking Larry’s trying to sneak in. Apparently some folks have a hard time comprehending that there are certain indemnities that must be covered to host such an event. Hill fees, insurance liability, cost of snow making, a couple of sandwiches and maintenance supplies are just a portion of the monetary grievances a shop faces when trying to get an event like this going. Please consider this next year before fan dangling your way past the registration booth and have to spend the entire day looking you’re your shoulder playing the role of Sketchy Ungrateful Asshole. Yeah, we know – Damage Sucks."
