Rail setup at open house (OSC)

Yeah I was there on my board. I thought the boarders were throwing down ways heavier then lame skiers doing mule kick slippery slides.
 
^my statement wasnt towards all the snowboarders, it was those ones who were there at the start talking shit about kirby and skiers, they left eventually though and the other guys were cool, also whats a mule kick im not getting it...
 
you guys don't know what a mule kick is? fuck... i guess i'm getting old.

I was there for the last half hour with my g/f and some friends. Had on black pants, a blue and white shirt and a I wore my best beard.
 
Mule kick: place poles on head, point them straight to the gods children! twister your feet to the side and point your tails in the same direction as the poles, STRAIGHT UP! sideways backscratcher steeze kids... its all about attracting as much attention to yourself in the air as possible, as per most of the tricks of the era
 
yah I'm pretty sure I was doing mule kicks the 1st week I was skiing....caught my tips on the ground a couple times though
 
Jonas....you're making me feel old....the mule kick, from the era of the screamin' semen and when 3's were called helicopters.....I had a flourescent green, yellow and orange jacket then...I think you were in diapers...your little brother was a glimmer in your Dads eye....I'll die first....

20 foot 10 inch wide single kink box rail...all but the paint..ready to ride...30 foot 6" tube rail....on paper..steel waiting for glue.....other ideas brewing.....

I taught Jess how it ski....
 
it's on mark...I may have to break out my old Sun Ice suit...pink and yellow 1 piece, or my old race pants with the padded knees ( you know what i'm talking about) and come teach you how to ski.

Remind me to bring out the video I have of myself and a few top pros doing some double spreads, and triple daffy's for our big air jumps....Doing a 3 was considered crazy back in the day...
 
Oh yaaaa.. I had the navy blue racing pants...with the bib....stitches across the knees.....boots were purple with yellow buckles....I still dress up like that when no ones looking...we were KINGS....KINGS I say....back in the day...no parks then...these guys think they have it rough...how far we've come....I'm thinking RETRO DAY this year...
 
That would be sweet... I forgot about spandex race pants... good god those were horrid.

I remember when Mark Eady spun an "egg beater" over the driveway "out of bounds" at Kirby. Over the road going down to the east chalet... I imagine you were doing the same yourself Mark...
 
retro/one piece day could be exciting...I'm excited about my tight pants
 
My brain has been washed of all the things I used to do...part of the process of becoming GM....all but the tight pants...oh yes the tight pants...they're sooooo snug....
 
wow...the new OSC site is nice...but maybe they should use less powder shots from the west coast on it:P
 
how many guys in this area have the name gordon and ski. I think of one, but i guess there is more then that
 
It's shortform for Gordini... they make spandex race pants. Gordon, aka Gordini, is a huge fan of them. He has like 5-6 pairs...
