whats the most bad ass person you have ever skied with?

I skied with a telemark skier who had just gotten back from Iraq and was skiing on a broken foot. He was shredding harder than i was i had no idea about his foot until later.
 
skied with this crazy 50 year old dude at killington. it was his 77 day that year on snow. his name was moon dog, that shredded harder than anyone else over the age of 30 i had ever seen. hes badass
 
Craig Panarisi. Snowbird guy. Tellier. No ACL or MCL in either knee. We skied an OB chute near Vail with mandatory 25 foot drop over ice fall. He skied it on teles, with no poles, holding a big heavy old VHF camera. I was in awe.
 
i definitely know who your talking about. I've also skied with the guy who runs the empanada stand at killington next to the gondola mid station. he fuckin shreds! deffinately makes me jealous that he works on the mountain and gets to ski every single day
 
skied garganta couloir in portillo, chile in front of jeremy nobis after talking with him at the top about how he used to go to school in VT

i also rode the lift with some guy at mt hood who held the world record for the most consecutive days skied
 
i rode up the lift with a guy that jumped off from 15 feet onto a giant snowman built below.

but he sucked at actually skiing
 
Tom Spencer. 75 year old legend... god father of freestyle skiing. First guy to make the cover of ski magazines doing fresstyle tricks. Made the sport what it is with guys like Shane McConkey's dad. He schooled me. Insane. So inspiring...
 
my friend parker. he is a beast, this is his first year skiing park and he doesnt have twin tips yet, but that didnt stop him from taking the worst beating i've ever seen on these wooden rails at my home mountain. he fell so hard every time, took some aspirin and did it again. I wish i was that fearless my first year.
 
hopped on the chair from the singles line, and noticed once i started talkin to the two guys is was Phil and Steve Mahre. Had a great convo with them and took a run. it was awesome to meet some of skiings legends.
 
tree runs with Liam Downey, Justin Dorey, and Duncan Lake at Bromley after they got 20 some inches of snow two nights before
 
My coach has been skiing on a broken fibula for that past month. he also pushed his femur thru his knee and took three more runs on one foot
 
This one guy, "Mr. Epic", who has literally skied every day Vail Resorts has been open for the past 3 years, aka over 200 days a season...
 
My dad is a three track skier and a couple times a year he goes out with wounded warriors and teaches them how to ski for a few days. I think thats pretty bad ass
