Yeah, I use the pass in an upper arm pocket in most jackets, but my spring jacket doesn't have that, so I sometimes wear it on a lanyard. Just thinking it's a poor form though.

Ikon Pass Details Are Out
Yeah, I use the pass in an upper arm pocket in most jackets, but my spring jacket doesn't have that, so I sometimes wear it on a lanyard. Just thinking it's a poor form though.
I keep my cellular phone in my breast pocket. Inevitably, a pass on lanyard would position itself behind the phone.
I've been patiently waiting for our Ikon passes to arrive since I uploaded pictures when they pushed me to do so in late August if I wanted the passes mailed to us. But I had not been closely reading all their e-mails as most seemed to be trying to get me to spend more money by upgrading my Basic Pass to a Full Pass or to take advantage of their lodging 'deals'. But I finally noticed they said (at least a couple of times) that I had to login as something was missing. It turned out they did not have my wife's pass picture so I uploaded it (again AFAIK).
I'll give you a lanyard
I have sooooo many lanyards from all the trade shows and events we go to.
I like this idea.Note to self....Pugski lanyards.
At work a lot of people hang their badges from lanyards. I see it places I visit too. Why not pugski?
OK, this ^^^ post just made me think- I commented above that most jackets these days have pass pockets. mdf's might be the exception.
Most of my jackets don't have pass pockets. I always put the RFID passes in my left pants pocket. So far so good.
Note to self. Stop buying those cheap Bogners and check out some real ski jackets with pass pockets.

I'm too short for pass in the pants pocket - it's below the scanner level.
Can someone post a photo of the Base Pass? I'm curious if it looks different from the Full Pass? We only upgraded a couple weeks ago and I want to make sure they sent the right one.
At Whistler they sell pass "wallets" with a plastic window and it is designed to snap onto a goggle strap.
So I asked, why do you sell pass holders when the RIFD reader system allows one to hide the season pass in a pocket? The answer: small kids pockets are not high enough to be scanned so affixing it to the goggle strap raises it to the correct height for most kids.
I don't have a pass pocket, but I just use one of my regular jacket pockets. Keep potential interference sources in other pockets. It works fine.
I was referring to work badges, not ski passes -- an opportunity for cross-venue promotion. I'd say about half the ones I see are "souvenir" lanyards, rather than plain or employer-supplied.
Oh where, oh where,
Is my Ikon pass?
Oh where, oh where can it beeee?

Mine arrived Tuesday.
I guess with the hole in the pass, I can retire my Dave's Deli pass holder. As long as I can find a Pugski shoelace to hang it on.

I have not received mine yet, although some of my ski buds received their IKON passes two weeks ago and we purchased them about the same time and we live in the same area. I called IKON today and the sweet woman who answered my call informed me that, in her opinion, there seemed to be no rhyme or reason to the order in which the passes are being mailed out. She told me mine was mailed two days ago, so I should be getting them soon. You could call if you're really concerned, they'll tell you if they've been mailed. As for Killington early season, I wouldn't use my IKON pass now. The early rack rate for the next month or so ( unless we have a killer early season ) is usually much lower a price than the normal season rate. The other thing you can do is get a 2 for 1 deal at Killington for early season ( until Dec 15th ) Just google Killington 2 for 1.
I got mine on Monday, but my wife has not received hers yet. She did have to resend her picture which may have delayed things. It's OK-no plans to travel for a WROD..............
I was kidding more than serious. I don't have any intention of traveling the WROD.
It was more that ski season is getting close and the pass hasn't arrived. I'm sure it'll show up sometime soon.

Yep, we got the Checklist email and had to upload new pictures. I just checked the email and it stated "Action required by 9/16 to receive your season pass by late October." So if she sent it after 9/16 it might be awhile. We haven't received ours yet either but I haven't been too concerned because we know someone that purchased early June and still have not received theirs.
