I might have this a little wrong but the song is the beat to "they reminisce over you" by Pete Rock and CL smooth.

 
Peter O with his usual nasally voice! and Colby with his impressions...not good enough this year but definitely going next year!
 
cool.

but why do certain pros feel the need to put their names in event titles? far and away the worst trend in skiing.
 
^ i think there is because registration says first come, first served but it is not filled yet, i just registered a few minutes ago. sooo stoked for it too.
 
Fuck that sounds sick, its during my break from school but theres no way i can afford plane ticket and registration and membership............
