I'm off to the gym to give the PAIN workout routine a go.

Let me quote Jon about names as said in an MSP interview: "Naming tricks is hard. Whatever you come up with is going to be kind of stupid...We gotta name it something because if you start naming stuff like switch rodeo 630 to 450 with like two extra super duper grabs, it's just going to be...

MSP actually ran a bunch of zip lines for a while back around the Focused years--Bachelor, Whistler pipe, Copper rail, Hood Meadows... Pep had some sick shots, as did Pollard and Bushfield, Turpin and CR. Mack Dawg was doing them as well, all set up by the guy in the mountain bike flicks who...

Haven't seen Idea yet, but I've got to say I'm more stoked to see it than any other movie that's come out in several years. That being said, whether it changes the way movies are made, we'll have to see. I'm guessing a lot of the feel from this movie comes from there being just three...

The biggest problem with no poles is that the most embarrassing thing in skiing in the past 25 years was snowlerblading, and it was a huge relief to see it die. Now the same general look is back, just with somewhat longer skis and a lot more ability. If Andy Mahre wants to rip around with no...

It's pronounced either way but it doesn't matter. He's in the realm of athletes who can go by just one name, and PEP covers it.

Krasnaya-Polyana (1 1/2 hrs up the road from Sochi) might just be the best ski area I've ever been to. Great terrain, 6,000' of vert, few people, incredible skiing on storm days in the trees and sick spines and lines a short hike off the top. Tough to get to, but well worth the effort. I know...

I've used waterskis at Squaw a couple of times. One day in good pow, the other when it was really wet new snow saturated with a bit of rain, but enough new snow so it was really smooth. They ruled--so good that I had no doubts in my mind that every other struggler out there could have used a...

It's over 1,000' deep, so it's not an issue of time in getting from the top to the bottom. You'll be dead well before you can get even 100' down. Apparently there are plenty of other bodies down there, so at least you won't be alone.

Wow. Just when thing seemed better, they've suddenly gone way downhill. The fire jumped a line and is now raging "out of control" according to 8 News. It's gone over Highway 89 and is racing towards Tallac Village, Camp Richardson and all kinds of homes and the lake, including the Keys. Bad...

I know what you're trying to say, but get a clue, man. With your perspective and whacked reasoning so lacking of any sense of sympathy, I suppose everyone in SanFrancisco should pack up and leave, because they're living under a serious threat of earthquakes. Likewise, anyone along the...

It's already destroyed 50+ homes and will no doubt take more. Out my N.Shore window I can see the 200' flames when they flare up and the tower of smoke looks like an atomic bomb. Good luck to all those down there. I know a lot of people are packing up and fearing the worst.

No intent to diss Berman at all. Steve Winter and Josh have said what's in the past is in the past. I know no one even considered the use of the same words in the subtitle until it was brought up on here. Seven Sunny Days sounded like a book, and we figured the segments within the movie were...

Thanks for some understanding, and you bring up valid points. We listen. And sometimes we already know our faults. I've been complaining about too much slow mo for a few years now. I watched Mike Douglas' segment from Yearbook recently and there might have been one shot shot at real speed...

Wow, if that's not said in jest, I'm pretty impressed. I think a lot of people think MSP is way bigger than they are. Like they are rolling in wealth. It's not the case. Matchstick undoubtedly puts more money into their films than any ski company out there. Then people argue that the...

Enjoy what you're into, don't bitch about what YOU don't like when others dig it, and respect what it takes to bring you guys sick images. Because it takes a hell of a lot more than the whiny little grovellers could ever imagine. Freedle, you're a good dude.

Did anyone who keeps saying that MSP puts out the same EXACT film every year even watch Push? Let's see... 1) Requiem for a dream intro. Totally unique to ski movies 2) Simon solo full halfpipe segment. Dope. 3) Full big mountain live audio segment. Totally different and a risk. 4) Just...

Well, some of you guys (and we all know who you are) have managed to keep alive your 100% success rate in tearing into any thread that gives MSP the slightest bit of props and delivering your I HATE MSP rants that we've heard over and over and over and over and over and over... There are some...

Shall I repeat my first post? Quoting fatbastard from Jun 8 2007 4:42:25: God, I can't believe they put skiing and music and exciting stuff and personality and shots of where they went and interacted with people in their movies again. How played. MSP blows. Wow, can't believe you didn't catch...

God, I can't believe they put skiing and music and exciting stuff and personality and shots of where they went and interacted with people in their movies again. How played. MSP blows.
