Push premiere

errr there's gonna be hella old people and weekend warriors there, triple threat will be much better crowd
 
mcconkey totally did those like 5 years ago (ski movie 2). and i think its $15...which is kind of a lot, but it looks sick
 
you could have substituted msp's last two movies and nobody would have known the difference. only one shot of snoqualmie. pretty much only 5 or 6 riders.

never again!

NEVER AGAIN!
 
hahaha wow i bet snoqualmie was stoked to put all that time into quite a sick feature, and to get jack shit out of it.

sounds like what i predicted. the past 2 movies didnt look like a variation from one another, and after the past trailer, i thought that it would be the same thing. and also, since they did the whole copying the features thing from an online tutorial... just seemed a bit on the whack side.
 
haha...prize giveaway was fckin lame, as was the crowd. good sgs- simon, sammy, pollard,mike wilson, and rory bushfield. i thought it was aight
 
snoqualmie had a photo shoot with a yellow airplane wing

it was sick, but msp doesnt care
 
he's not shreading shit, that is just air moving. but you have the degree, so is he fucked or what. and I wanted a written example of vortex shreading.
 
Um, no thats not just "air moving". Those are vortices being shed off of the strakes. Basically you use those vortices to keep the boundary layer attached so you can delay stall until insane angles of attack, which explains why fighter jets like the f-16 and f-18 can get to such high alpha. What happens is the air condenses rapidly in a bound vortex like that, so the water condeses into a cloud.

On a cool misty morning, watch airliners coming into Sea-Tac, you will see two white lines trailing from the wing tips (or sometimes the edge of the flaps). Those are wing tip vortices being shed, they are being shed all the time but in the right atmospheric aonditions you'll get the cloud, very cool to watch.

Also, on many large airliners (777, 737, etc) there is a large chine on the inboard side of the engine nacelle, when you take off you're at a very high angle of attack and the vortex that is shed off this chine goes up and over the wing and again condenses into a cloud. it makes a perfect white tube going up and over the wing. AND if its not cool enough to condense, if the sun is at the right angle, you'll see a "shadow" of the vortex on the wing due to the variation in air density within the vortex. Much like you see a "shadow" of hot air.

I was doing stalls in a 777 2 weeks ago, so obviously we were at a very high angle off attack, and the nacelle chine vortices weren't making visible cloud vortices, but I could totally see a well defined outline shadow on the wing, and I watched it slowly burst as the boundary layer separated, the wing stalled, and we literally dropped out of the sky like a rock.

I then proceeded to throw up like 5 times.
 
i love how thread titles in these regionals never actually prepare u for what is inside the thread
 
Push was a good movie... I enjoyed it. But there was this guy who sat in front of me and I couldn't really see. And some girls sitting behind me that wouldn't shutup about Brandon Becker.... grrr that was lame.
 
The guy sitting next to me wouldn't stop figgiting. He kept squirming and scratching (it was kevin). Drove me insane.

The guys in front of us were taking pictures of the movie with their cell phones the whole time, and kevin kept taking his out cause he wants to impress everybody with his fancy phone.
 
this thread is no longer about msp but It hough I would share.

you chose cool people to hang out with sean.

we are probably just outside the frame on the left. We were in the second row, right side of the place.
