5 Reasons to Buy a Flex 3 Pass

Reading Time: 4 minutes

Snowshoe’s newest pass provides the best value you’ll find on lift tickets this season* and guaranteed good times.

The Flex 3 Pass gives you 3 days of skiing or riding to be used consecutively or non-consecutively throughout this winter season. And while there are a few holiday blackout dates, you can bet your bottom dollar this is the best bang for your buck when it comes to 3 days of skiing/riding.

It was hard to narrow down but here are the top 5 reasons to flex your ski days this winter with a Flex 3 Pass.

1. Hot Deal:

Flex 3 Pass at Snowshoe Mountain

If you plan on skiing or riding at the ‘Shoe this winter and you don’t have a season pass – this one is for you. Don’t get caught paying window rates for your lift tickets this winter when you could have bought a Flex 3 Pass.

Let’s break it down. Flex 3 is just $199 which means you’ll have access to Snowshoe Basin, Western Territory, and Silver Creek for less than $67 per day. You read that right; less than $67 per day for 3 days…only when you buy a Flex 3 Pass. In other words, that price is about a 60% discount off peak season walk-up day lift tickets.

2. Weather Proof:

Snowshoe is a winter wonderland – most of the time. Mother Nature blesses us with plentiful snow but can periodically remind us to be grateful for the powder days with some underdeveloped snow. With Flex 3 Pass, there’s no reason to sweat the weather forecast. Since the 3 days of riding don’t need to be used consecutively, you can save a day when the sky is crying (although rain makes the snow soft, playful, and forgiving).

3. Work Proof:

The worst day skiing is better than a good day at the office. But sometimes the office wins. Don’t let a work emergency hinder your trip. Flex 3 Pass gives you the piece of mind to know that when something pops up, you don’t lose a day of skiing.

Alternatively, if snow is in the forecast and you suddenly need to take a ‘sick’ day, with the Flex 3 Pass, you’re all set for a spontaneous trip to the mountain. No need to wait in line for walk-up tickets or book your specific days in advance.

4. Get Ready for a Big Trip:

The big mountains of Colorado, Utah, Idaho, and the rest of the Mountain West region are spectacular and a must do for any skier. But these mountains require a bit of preparation to truly enjoy. Long, steep, and bumpy runs are plentiful and its easy to tire out after just a day or two. Get your ski legs under you and save with a Flex 3 Pass. Use those three days to train and prepare at Snowshoe before that big trip. Trust us, your legs will thank you.

5. Race Weekends:

This year, Snowshoe Mountain is hosting multiple ski and snowboard races. Every racer knows the mental focus needed to perform well. A Flex 3 Pass takes away some of the mental stress, as you can get your full weekend lift tickets with just one pass. And at just $199, you’ll have some budget left over for a fresh race wax or pre-race edge tune.

Planning on racing multiple events at Snowshoe this winter? Use your Flex 3 Pass on competition days as a sneaky way to save even more on already discounted competitor lift ticket prices.

Bonus Reason: A Great Gift

The Flex 3 Pass is the pass for you, your friends, your family, your neighbor, your boss…literally anyone who loves the thrill of sliding on snow. Get all your holiday shopping done in one fell swoop and pick up a Flex 3 Pass for everyone on your list, naughty or nice. After all, experiences and memories make the best gifts.
