Attitash

[meggles]

i grew up learning how to ski at attitash. and bear peak. my grandparents work there, so we get free lift tickets/passes and stuff (i live in pa) but have they had this event every year?? we're usually up there president's day weekend, but i dont think i've ever been there for this :

Spread Eagle World Championship

02/18/2006

There’s a huge jump, competitors chomping at the bit and a crowd cheering for the action to get underway. What’s different? Tricks that include a grab or off-axis spin will not be rewarded. Attitash is calling out the straight skis, day-glow and one-piece suits for a display of old school airs and outerwear

mann.... i wish i could be there to see it...

its not really that cool they had it last year but its pretty fun i guess

 

[AttitashSkier]

last year was the first year, fun time had by all.

 

[meggles]

oh. its sounds pretty insane. but i'm not sure if that's in a good way or a bad way.....i dunno. i guess it would be funny in the beginning, but it would get kindof boring after a while...

 

[AttitashSkier]

i thought it was fun throughout the whole thing, its good to get back to your roots and remember wat skiing used to be.

 

[Mr.Bob_Dobalina]

not really, that stuff is boring as fuck, its basicaly and excuse of a big air for kids who cant spin

 

[heymanitsdan]

[rparadise]

[heymanitsdan]

[AttitashSkier]

saturday was mint. sunday sucked

 

[phatbush]

sunday afternoon though the sun came out!

 

[attitashfreestyle29]

i dont think so it sucks cuz that jump was perfect

 

[heymanitsdan]

yea it was sick, and the landing was nice, they actually put some work into it

 

[BCKicker540]

i wonder if old school straight backflips are allowed

 

[AttitashSkier]

nope, no inverts at the tash.

Dude this is your chance to be a world champion. How can you argue with that? Spins are ok - I think last year a 360 screamin seaman won it. The baddest airs of the day were the rocking horse thing-a-ma-bobs.

I've got a sweet one-piece stashed away. Watch out world.
