Tis similar for all 3 bumps.
Get 2 freebie days to boot.
I’ve yet to ski a ski3 bump yet this season even with the old fart season pass.
Hopefully we can make some weekday voyages if conditions warrant.

Last year I upgraded from Frequent Skier card to Senior SKI3 Pass. Was a deal since I saved $$ from the Frequent skier card rates for 3 trips in the Spring. Then I got a One day Buddy pass and 1/2 day pass for this the current year. Again savings to me since they were used by my adult daughter and grandson that I would have paid for.
That brings me to the 2025-26 deal just released. I have emailed the mountain (Gore) to confirm but it is my understanding if I renew this Spring I get 2 free buddy passes for the current season. Then I also get 2 free buddy passes for next season. Those perks really make my $289 Senior Pass rate a great deal!
I do have 2 questions.... First, last year did I only get 1 full buddy pass and 1 half day pass since I bought thru Gore? The write up I saw for Gore and Whiteface were different. The Whiteface write up much easier to understand. The perks are the same for all SKI3 Passes correct?
My second question... Is there a way I can have my daughter and or grandson use a Spring buddy pass if I am not there with them? My wife is having knee replacement surgery next week and it could mean my ski season is done for this year.

BTW I want to thank those who offered me explanations and encouragement on nyskiblog this season. You were very helpful. The encouragement to try Bears Den area at Whiteface was a real game changer for me. I never would have chanced it without encouragement. The "undeserved" respect I get for skiing Whiteface is hilarious.

When you upgraded from FSC to Season Pass did you continue using the same RFID Card or did you have to switch at the mountain?
Yes you get 4 total passes (2 for rest of 25') (2 for 25-26'). I do believe you have to be present at mtn for buddy pass but i could be wrong!

Was there this morning. For anyones future reference they do want you to switch your RFID when upgrading from FSC to Full Season, they say sometimes the card "wont get along" with scanning. However, if you upgrade using payment plan (which I did) you cannot receive your new RFID until payment plan finishes.
