Other mistake: The lodge the guys are staying in is called The Silver Peaks Lodge. However, in the scene where Nick is confirming his reservation, the sign behind the clerk with the goatee reads The Silver Peak Lodge [singular].

Continuity mistake: When Lou and Nick are playing pool in the bar, Lou goes to break the rack and misses. When Nick goes to break them, the balls are racked in a different pattern. (00:50:10)
Adam: One little change has a ripple effect and it effects everything else. Like a butterfly floats its wings and Tokyo explodes or there's a tsunami, in like, you know, somewhere.
Jacob: Yes exactly. You step on the bug and the fucking internet is never invented.
Lou: Oh then you'll have to talk to girls with your mouth.
Jacob: Yeah. No. I was more concerned about bigger consequences like not being born.
Lou: Yeah. No. I don't care about that.
Trivia: Chevy Chase makes his first appearance; he farts. This goes back to the movie Spies Like Us when he is taking the test and he farts during the test, blaming it on the guy sitting next to him. The guy says, "Excuse me," as everyone looks at him.

Chosen answer: The James Bond film "A View To A Kill" came out the year before in 1985. In the film, Bond's snowscooter is blown up by the Soviets, so he takes a wrecked ski from it and improvises it into a snowboard. Snowboards existed at the time, however, it wasn't until that film that their existence became well known. One year later in 1986, they'd still be very rare, but it's likely that his wasn't the first that the ski patrol had seen.
