GT40 all the way!! The man gives so much and takes nothing in return.

Having known GT for many years, spending many days on the hill with him, confided in him (Im sure he thinks Im nuts, but he is still a great friend to me), spending time at his home and much more.

Let let GT get some video analysis and some great coaching and pics of him!!

He has spent way too many pow days standing knee deep in the snow to capture the images we all love and enjoy here, while freezing his tail off.

He needs this and I can't think of anyone who has provided day in and day out the stoke here.

GT40 deserves this.

I've told the story of my arrival at last years utah mini a few times over now, so I'll spare you all. Suffice to say, I'm in agreement with just about everyone else - GT40 definitely deserves it for his support of the community, his hospitality towards complete strangers, and his all around good nature!

GT40!

Even if he doesn't want to schralp the all the gnar-gnar, the photo-documentation he could provide for the first maggot camp would be SICK.

I'm not saying he should go and just take photos, but the dude obviously likes to take photos. And we like to look at them.

Eh?

Edit: This may be an ungood addition and take away from the pure goodness of the thread. I'm not sure. If it does, please ignore. Danka.

Additonal Condition:

GT40, on one other condition: he leaves HIS camera home and the picture taking to someone else this time!!! He can always shoot another camp. THis one should be skiing only for him IMO.

Time to be the slut GT!!!!

GT40 is the man!!! Hands down!!

^ That's funny.

Another vote for GT, if he'll go. One of the most caring people on the planet, much less on this board.

C'mon, Doc! Do it!

(edit: Maybe someone should tell him, eh?)

I informed him today on our first gondola ride up. I'm sure he'll check-in in a bit.

Another here for GT40. The more i think about it, the better it sounds.

Hey guys and gals. Thanks for the kind words, and votes for going to the camp. You are right that it is something, that I would never have thought of for myself. But now you've got me wondering!! :biggrin: It sounds like a lot of fun. I don't know if I have enough skill to even qualify for the camp. Maybe I ought to check with Gordy?

Thanks again for the votes of appreciation. I recieved more kind words in this thread, than in 24 years as a Dentist. :redface:

Based on my discussions with Gordy about the skiers he thinks will benefit most from his camps, I think you're an ideal candidate. You've got my vote...

GT, don't know yah man, but if you end up going, it'll be a blast! Only 7 or so of us, wow! :eek:

I think the small group thing is really gonna work to our benefit in terms of focus flexibility and moving around the mountain(s), etc.

P. S. Shin = Good People...

Well Gordy says I should be OK.

So it's up to Shin-to-Win. If he would like to give me his place in the camp, I'd love to make the most of it. And yes, I'd have to still have atleast one camera with me. :wink:

What does "Shin-to-win" mean? Is his name a typo?

Just wondering.

Just wondering.

The technique of skiing through a gate not around it in slalom is called shinning (or used to be). When breakaway gate first came, "shin to win" was an expression the tuffs used.

Leave the camera in my pack and i will go shoot you in action GT.

I'm super stoked to see this type of goodness coming from the board...way to go Shin. Such a cool idea to even consider! That type of hospitality will for sure earn you some karma points and an open door at our home.

Good luck with the surgery and good luck at camp GT!

GT40 gets it by a landslide

Watching this thread today has really lifted my spirits. I had no idea GT had given so much to the maggot community.

Congrats GT, enjoy your time at winter camp . . . go get some new Skilz
