x3.
I'm sure we'd at least recognize most of each other. "oh... you're that guy" type thing.
I know I don't have any tgr history or impressive post count, but I'm up there all the time just the same. Be stoked to meet one or more of you dudes up there for some turns.
Me: black coat, grey vest thing, white gloves. Alpine on Megawatts, tele on supermojos w/ red garmonts.
Let's go!
You alpine on Megawatts and Tele on Supermojo's?Quote:

Looks like Summit from Colorado might me joining us! Lets all make sure to show him around.
Single, gone for the season? Hope it dumps for real here for ya soon.
I wear a red jacket and ski on green b-squads. Occasional gaperiffic form is evident from a great distance when there's no pow!
I have an obnoxious K2 fetish. Usually on Kahunas, or Pontoons, or Pistols, or Pubic Enemas. Blue arcteryx jacket, dark grey pantalones. Might make up some of my own 'got change' stickers soon too...something better than the typical black stuff.
The supermojos had their turn as an alpine rig (too short but ok for tele). Every year there's a bunch of bumping and banging coming from the ski closet right around halloween, then I open it to find bindings changed around. I know I'm not alone with this wife swapping business... you're right man they get jealous for each other.Quote:

You maggots can find me easily as I have a bright ass red jacket, grey pants, white helmet, and will be riding pro riders (probably XXL's w/ dukes). Oh and I'm the kid that gets really out of control towards the end of the day and slides into trees because I've found it to be the easiest way to come to a stop when your legs feel like goo.
im riding the old school big daddys with red soly 914 binders. wearing all grey with a black helmet.
easy to spot for the next few days because im the guy skiing with one pole. i need to figure out my wrist brace so i can carry my other pole. i feel like im a bull rider out there chucking one hand up over my head. really need to get that shit worked out.
mine as well pipe up, as I'm finally gathering my bearings on the mountain - black/gray jacket, gray helmet, white gogs, green rossi b4's - same look as tone's squads. Not gonna lie, tone, saw some of your pics and noticed you had either b4's or squads so i've been keeping an eye out for people riding on 'em. i'll be out tomorrow and friday for sure, took today off because the shin bang bruise hasnt quite gone away yet. already met one mag up there - just fucking yell or throw something at me. jumper, would be sweet if you made some stickers - a somehow uniquely bridger "change" sticker would make it easy to ID the maggot crew there.
Tone, let me know when you go down again. I have my pass at MLB, again, and am down there at least once a week.
X2...I'm finally starting to get a feel for the inbounds stuff but have yet to leave the gates since I can't seem to find any partners. It would be great to find a partner or two to start exploring Schlasman's and the Ridge.Quote:

I'd be absolutely lying if I said some of the ridge lines don't make me pee my pants a teeny bit, but I'm game for a lot of it and would love to meet more of the Bozeman contingent.
Last year you coulda added Bro's, mucho explosives, Praxis and Lotus 138's.Quote:

Red arcteyx jacket and black helmet with mt fish co. and bomber tele stickers.
I will also be riding my own creations, tough to miss apparently, 138 knockoffs ratafaried one million %.

I think it will ski pretty good on the next pow day.
Edit:
Christmas day was lots of fun. With the exception of the No Game traverse, the new lift served terrain is second to none, IMHO.
Lots of long, sustained, humbling pitches! Skiing nice where it's packing in, so stoked for a pow day there.
When it finally goes off, gapers on the No Game Traverse beware my sluff!:smile:
A crude rendering of what I'm talking about.

The No Game traverses go well below the bottom of this picture. I talked to a new patroller about making one out of the four that turn into like 50 and he totally agreed and said he would bring it up in their meeting. He was like "Why ruin the best fall line north facing pow stash on the ridge with all those traverses." Thank you sir!
And not for nothing, those taking the No Game traverse from the top of the lift are killing 600' vert of quality terrain before they even make their first turn.
Just as a friendly holiday reminder, the flatlanders are beginning to come out in full force. Definitely had to take a couple evasive maneuvers to avoid erratic jeans-clad darters today. Bridger skiers follow the fall line (mostly), while holiday tourons zig and zag, making cross-slope turns just below the fast rollovers... remember?Quote:

Todays video of the day was sweet.
Cameraman had some fun lines w. POV helmet cam.
Its pukin at my house right now. If there is a generous accumulation (more than 10) you can expect to see me in the lift lines tomorrow morning. Orange coat. White helmet. Big bag with a camera.
word, don't know about 10+, but I just got in from christmas festivities and it was nukin' in town. ended up driving around doing donuts for awhile and wasting 1/4 tank of gas. best fackin' christmas present ever. should be a shit show tomorrow.Quote:

Lots of rippers up there today, too. People killin' it all over the mountain, it seemed.Quote:

well, since the last real ski picture was on pg.43, I thought I might throw some stoke from around the Bridgers out here.
