Ages 18-22 i believe.

So if I got my pass when it was 6 units I should still be good, I got it when credits for school were 6 not 12... If they don't like it I'm more then happy to talk to a manager

I couldn't agree more. I got a pair of Focus Boas two years ago and they are incredible. They have a heat moldable liner that makes them fit like a glove, the dual boa system allows me to tighten and loosen my boots in seconds both at the foot and above the ankle, and my feet never hurt or feel uncomfortable. I got really lucky and found my size on clearance for $130.

From what I've heard (who knows how truthful it is) ThirtyTwo's boot engineer for the past few years is the best in the business and now he's with DC. Any ThirtyTwo boot from the past couple years till now should be great along with DC boots. Also been hearing a lot of good things about Nike's snowboard boot line. Heard they're really comfortable and supportive, which had me considering picking up a pair but after riding Boreal a couple weeks ago in my new Ride Insano's (really liking them btw) I'll be sticking with the Ride's for now. Might have finally found my boot Although I really really like the Simon Chamberlain ThirtyTwo's that came out this year. Just not sure if I can justify having two pairs of boots.

If you got it last year, tell them.. I'm pretty sure if you got it before vail resorts took over they will let you ride sierra on black out dates. They are trying to get everyone to get the "northstar- Heavnly" pass which also works at sierra. I was in your same boat though and got it last year as a "sierra- Northstar" pass. I did get the young adult but they told me at the snow show if i got it before vail resorts took over then you can ride sierra any day. (young adult has no black out dates though, but i did ask about a college and thats what they told me.)
