Wish I could be in UT for this. Had the pleasure of skiing with John and riding the chair together in Kiroro Japan a few years back when he was filming for TGR. His comeback from two brutal injuries back to back is seriously inspiring. Plus the film looks sick!Quote:

32 pounds, age 4. His sister was only a year older, didn't weigh much more.
Blew my shit away, and away we went...
Never signed summit registers, but pretty sure we set age records on many peaks in the west.
Best years of my life...
Will see you there brother. Stoked for the fam and sick skiing. Look forward to meeting up.Quote:

Baldy didn't suck yesterday, we could probably use another 10" but soft turns are soft turns and I didn't get any new core shots

I'll fix the thread title eventually, bummed about Basin parking and the inevitable Solly refugees

Johnny is horrified and embarrassed that this isn't free.
I guess there's a raffle with good swag, and the money raised goes to the UAC, but his intent wasn't followed.
It'll be online sometime...
noice that he remains insulated from that stuff...
anyone heading up to Solitude today or this weekend to kick off the ski season in Utah?!
So, here to promote Johnny's film again.Quote:

He's gonna preface the film with a shorter film about his knee dislocation and recovery. Pretty good stuff.
And have a Q+A session after with his sister.
Worth the price of admission now...
Good little feature. Is the gad valley gun getting retired too, or is that UDOT?Quote:

Why I was prodding Xover a coupla months ago bout how the Army whose weapons are on loan to us feels about that.
They don't think highly about civilians shooting their cannons.
Specially over occupied buildings which thankfully is now in the past with all the Wyssen towers in the upper canyon.
Anyone here have an ATK RT10 jig and like beer? Maybe a shoulder bit too
yep, I have an atk jigQuote:
