hahaha.. did anyone notice that the first five seconds or so.. when you see the guy drop in and hit the crust and backspin.. Well that was Aaron McGovern.. that was MSPs footage from AK then they cut to the guy in the Alps tumbling.

hahahahhahahah This thread is classic. The whole idea of skiers "selling out" is absolutely ludicrous. Skiers aren't inner city youths who have a talent and then exploit it to get out of the slums and forget their roots... SKIERS ARE USUALLY AFFLUENT WHITE KIDS. There is no "selling out"...

If you want inexpensive, you should think about Slovakia or the Czech Republic. The Tatras are not shitty mountains by any standard, and the financial burden will be lower than most of the other European ski centers. Russia is also a good option.

I would have to say that Prior Snowboards was the first pure core snowboard company to produce skis. Chris Prior wanted to try skiing, so instead of buying a pair of skis, he just modified his tooling to be able to make a ski. I know Chris and Dean and had the opportunity very early on to test...

Dale Begg-Smiths run was pretty much flawless. He was leagues above the competition and seriously schooled the field. Remember its "mogul skiing".. those two operative key words are what its all about. Skiing moguls, and Begg-Smith skis them better than anyone currently out there competing...

Correction, the waterfalls WERE the place to be. Now they are fully bombed and crusted and sketch. But all we need is another decent dump.

Meh... I have already moved past them.. I am all about the "switch reverse Zero spin".. some people keep tryin to tell me that I didn't invent it and its actually called a "straight air".. but they are just haters.

In reference to comments on the amplitude of switch hits and where they are heading. I have personally seen switch hits in the high teens. Chris Turpin was dropping in and hitting Huge switch flat sevens days before Heading to X the year he blew his ACL. Also I have pictures of Andreas...

This is really sad. I mean that. I really could not imagine a worse way for a young childs day to go as to be skiing with his/her father and watch him collapse and pass. Today there may have also been a death at Whistler/Blackcomb as Patrol was performing CPR on a victim at the base. I can...

Oh.. and I just wnat to say to everyone.. that is Skipp Johnson (known as "skippah" on here) sending the Crystal Waterfall. Yes, he skis.. and he skis well. There is also video of him doing a near sixty footer off the Curl. unfortunately I won't be getting any pics of him in the next little...

I am with the most of you here on one point. I dont' care for it when people fail to say "bar coming down". Otherwise though.. I am all for the bar. I have been on more than one high speed lift where an emergency stop has been enacted.. and once when I was in Mt. St. Anne in Que. some tool...

Note the location of the bombholes in relation to the skier.

I have no idea if any of you have actually hit the waterfall.. but there are very few locations on it which you can only go "20-30 feet". The face of the Crystal Waterfall is near the 30 foot mark and if you hit it correctly you will go nearly sixty feet. Fifty if you go slow.

Nice.. I was there with Maxim, Jeffy, and Skipp the other day and I worked on it for a good hour. I got three quarters through and pulled my groin after many many many bails. I will be back to enact my vengeance on it tomorrow. BTW.. Jeffy sent if amazingly with one of the cleanest 270s out...

Ryan, what are you putting your Sequences together with. If you are using Photoshop I will show you a better way to put them together. If you are not using PS, you should start. Translucent images look soft. You can do this in Layers without having them look soft like this.

Yeah, Peirot also has it pretty together. I have shot quite a bit with him. But.. for those of you who don't know... Keep your eyes open for Kevin Labatt as well. Mckeem knows what I am talking 'bout

AJfreestyle... Ya.. those were my tracks.. Krakatoa has also been calling me but I want to rip it and do both hucks and it is a little crusty lates.

Yes.. Chucky pretty much owns. Oh, and if Rex said it.. you can also pretty much take it to the bank.

Erica, you can't be serious to say that a liftie has no authority or responsibility in this. Lifties themselves are the ones who let you on the chair (granted it is only after approval, but they still actually open the line). It stands to reason then that lifties also being aware of this...
