Dave (Trevorwoulddoit) was on a fuckin' ROLL today. He destroyed the park, bombed the bottom of a sketch run switch (the snow wasn't great, so that made it pretty insane... I'm not really doing it justice), and was generally making me look bad by comparison. So a bunch of us are cruising down a green switch, Simon (Jib_this) is jibbing every rock everywhere, and we're all hitting this rut jump on the side of the run. It wasn't bad for what it was, we were getting about 5 feet up, but it isn't a sudden lip so you could stretch the distance out 20 feet or so, and the landing is huge. Only problem is, being a green run, these dumb gomers are all over the place, some of them cruising off the jump and sitting on the landing. Given the shitty weather, it was pretty much the best hit on the mountain, so this started pissing us all off a bit... we tried to figure out how to keep them from dropping into the thing when we were trying to hit it, but nothing really worked. And it's not like 90% of them know what 'DROPPING' means. We had a few close calls, but in between, Dave was nailing some 180s... the way he hits them, they look almost like a zero from downhill, because his tails get up really high. It looks great. But he kept getting cut off by these kids... he was flipping out. Finally, he just snaps. Next time up, he drops in as fast as possible, pops, and throws the biggest, styliest 1 of the day... right onto a passing snowboarder girl who wouldn't get out of the way. I was talking to John (Vantownloc) at the time, and Simon was SUPPOSED to be making sure no one got into the landing, but he ended up just laughing while Dave effectively landed right on this Girl (Note: Simon is an evil bastard). He completely nailed the landing on top of her, too... STOMPED to shit. She wasn't getting up. In fact, she seemed to be impressed into the snow. It was the most insane thing I have ever witnessed... all I could do was stand there with my jaw dropped, and quietly utter 'Hooooly shit... stomped to fuck'. He was just lying there on his back on the ground; his only comment about the whole thing was 'Fuck.' I think Dave probably feels bad about this, but honestly, it was totally her fault. There was no way we could have been clearer, with three of us waving people out of the way of the landing and keeping them from snaking us. Still, it obviously is too bad. I assume she's okay, though... despite the fact that we still have no idea what happened to her after they carted her off. But in any case, I seriously doubt she'll be getting in peoples' way again, because that seriously must have been... less than fun. At any rate, I thought that was worth sharing.
