I think I'd pay money to see more of Bobmc's old ski photos. Freaking awesome.
Me, I was working as a Ski Instructor at Powder Mountain on weekends (basically a daycare). That was my first season pass. I lost it mid way through the season and quit. Got tired of watching everyone ski pow while I snowplowed groomers. I hate to admit it, but I think all those damn clinics did help my skiing. I also graduated highcschool that year. I'm sure GT has some photos from back then. I hucked a 15 footer on the back side of sundown that year. I was so proud of the photo I took it to school to show my friends. Everybody thought I was rad. When I went to Basic training I took the photo as well. Everybody thought I was rad. That was the raddest 15 footer ever.
EDIT, oh and I wore a purple jacket and black pants. The jacket was edelweiss and the pants were columbia. All of my gear came from Garts.
Way to go Trayc! representin' on the CVC, not quite as ass kickin as the VO Slalom, but close. That was a stiffie.Quote:

I'm second from the left in this shot. I just wanted to point out there was a guy in the group I was with who wore jeans skiing every day. Cool then, cool now :)

10 years ago I was ski bum, but 20 years ago you would have found me on the mountain sporting the jeans and gators with semi big hair.
Not sure when this is from....guess is about 1991-1992.

Wow that one has my vote, you did some serious searching to successfully match the skis, boots, jacket, & hat!Quote:

Ten years ago? This is my ninth season on skis. :rolleyes: :D

I don't have any pics of me skiing anyways.
But I think my jacket had purple on it.

Hey, I had CVC's! Also a pair of Kastle 5.0's and a pair of Elan Comprex X Super-G skis.
'96 I finally had enough money to go back and visit my friends in CO. I'd left there in '94, and was living on ~$1500/month in DC. Ramen was my friend, and my fiancee (now my wife) had just quit her job to start her own business.
Hey, it was my second holiday on snow. Gimme a break, i've stepped up since then.....Quote:
