(yeah, that's the same message as every year but it might make a dent for a little while this season with a high profile incident to point at.)
From the footage and comments (thanks for that btw), these guys are not as expert at judging avalanche hazard as they may think they are.
thank youQuote:

Btw it worked.
Your boyfriend scooched slowly across the top of a start zone. (Above a highway... and infrastructure)
Putting little or no force into the snow.
Certainly less force than his first real turn would have if he hadn't completely hit the sweet spot.
They did a pretty good job of assessing their colossal fuck up after they had it though. So that's awesome.
The water bottle clipped to his pack is girl scout outing shit.
Glad they didn't kill anyone or themselves.
that was not a ski cut
For the gopros.Quote:

Dude isn't a pro ski patrol wanker so he isn't classically trained to get your kid's hot chocolate and finger bang your wives when you aren't around.
He doesn't know what he's talking about then.Quote:

Yeah you should give him free lessons then. Good luck, he doesn't listen to cunts who can't ski big lines.Quote:

Can we please adopt "scooch cut" into the snow safety lexicon?
It's the next step after waddling slowly onto a slidepath.Quote:

Peace. I don't speak for them but I'll fuck with haters. They are being put through the ringer and could use a few positive vibes.
I get it.
I would be interested in someone showing us a video of proper snowboard slope cut on wind hammered shallow continental snow pack at nearly 13,000 feet. Hook us up
I think you have just proven the DA’s case.
It sure seems like the wringer is partly of their own making. At least that's the impression I get from posts one of them made on Facebook and posts here.Quote:

4 serious, just stop. We all saw what went down.
It's the ramifications that matter.
Old news. This is about the GoPro videoQuote:

Still not seeing reckless endangerment. Hope the lawyer can keep all these nuances under control.
Genius right? Lol!Quote:
