^^^ Not great...Patrol will most likely be concentrating on the Ridge proper as that didn't open yesterday. There's always a chance, but not likely. Well over 2 inches of water in the 2 feet of snow, so a lot to deal with I'd think.

I was in a line of some sort allday yesterday, driving up, skiin ,drivin down, daily vid sums it up where telemarc has to adjust his line for sideways movin bogey, lotsa people everywhere... fun doin the highT 7times, def found some stashes but by 4 I was beat up from the choppy runouts wishin for smooth...
I hope all couple hundred rent gear from you. It makes the world go round $$$$$$$$$.
Skied the ridge today. My buddy mtskier broke trail and was first to the top. I had a fucking blaST! Also skied some Moment bibby's. It was my first time on a rockered ski and I loved 'em. Tomorrow Schlasmans. We'll be at the mtn early...
Well, yesterday was a sad day for moi.
Blew out my knee coming out of free fall (next to widow maker). Additionally, it was my second day on my new skis so I'm really bummed right now. Please continue to post stoke everyone. I NEED IT REALLY BAD!
(thats what she said).
Will post footage later but for now, big thanks to the BB patrol, you guys did an awesome job and to every one else, trees kinda hurt.
^Just attribute it to my failure to succeed in getting a january knee surgery hat trick. Between the two of us we can go 3 for 3.

Is there an official diagnosis yet? Keep us all posted, and don't dwell on it! There are two sides to every situation, etc.
Ouch. Vibes crazyskier05. Heal up fast...next season is right around the corner!Quote:

Hit me up if you want to borrow either of my bro models sometime, 192's with rocker (if you have somewhere around a 310BSL) or some lhasa's with dukes.
They definetly float better in the thick pow than the squads and after today I really like em alot more seeing that they can stomp landings in the chunder like it's pow. Much happier now, but I'd still love to try those Lhasas sometime!!! Boot sole is 307, thanks for the offer single, I just might take you up on that.
Vibes to ya crazyskier, was liking your videos. Sorry you gotta pay such a price for your good times. Good seeing yall up there getting some, and thanks for the avy pictures mtcham, I really like to be able to see what is happening out there during a time like this.
Today did not suck; got my first-first chair on slushies pow day for me, met some cool dudes to ski with:
capitan hardlines!!

Hot damn.
Looks like it was a fine day up there today.
Thanks for the vibes, I'll try to keep the un-stoke to a minimum but, ACL, MCL and Tibial Plateau fracture.
I did have the helmet cam on so it will make for a good party video, and now when I do the Point & Chute contest I can capitalize on the pity vote:fm::fm:
Now I've got plenty of time so I can spend it trying to edit some of the stuff I've got.
And although I might be hesitant, there might be some ON3P 191 Cease and Desists available to the maggot with a 303 bsl... (if you choose to ski them, realize I've had a day and half a run so they are pristine and therefore my babies. So I may be a bit protective).
Note: I've got the new look pivot 14's on them so there isn't much room for travel for other bsl's. Also, beer and green make me less hesitant :biggrin::biggrin:.
Man that sounds like a horrible injury. Must have been painful.
^^^^^^let us know when you get your surgery, we should have a little party for ya, supply you with some organic pain killers. I think my buddy that posts as hick on here bailed and almost blew apart his knee in the exact same spot last year around the same time. High speed chunder runouts will tear a maggot apart!
At least you were doing something cool, right? Bummer to hear it tho man.Quote:

Missed the whole weekend here, but glad I could see some stoke! The legs are getting back into fighting shape, going to be up there wednesday, friday and saturday with lots of redbull and advil and mcdonalds in me. :D
Cham, that last photo is reeeediculous! HUDGE! Thanks for the beta.
And Tone, I will throw my lhasas in the truck on wed/fri if by the odd chance you happen to make it up there. Let me know if you are going to be up either of those days, we need to get around to making some laps.
^^ Crazyskier, I thought your crash vid was pretty disturbing when you showed it to me... just a heads up for putting it up for public display. I'm sure most of your other footy would be ass-kickin' in the point & chute.
Definitely a surgery party is in order... maybe we could have it at my place so you can rescue your ON3P's from my ski closet.
dang vibes on the knee 05. hate2hear a man down...
had a near tweak recently when my 5yo blindside- karate chopped me- had to get a lil shitty w/her, let dad wreck his own knee honey...
Id be happy to attempt collecting some raw pov forya, take requests on lines even...
take it easy on yer mental
heard 3900 for sat makin it bigge$t day this yr, only a few 4k+days ever- sun&mon looked pretty strong as well- them's high speed quad numbers;)
/heard some grumbling about 175less/hr w/new triple but I know the snow was unusually touchy to prevent opening more...
got 2runs in 2hrs on slush mon, had2go but supernice heropow, football to lowest out though the hordes skiin above&below are a lil sketch
cya's up there if playcare doesn't call me in...
Yeah, that sketches me out too.Quote:

Single, Don't worry about it this week, skiing with the family still. Maybe after next tuesday.
Vibes dude. Based on your skis, I'm guessing that you're the guy I chatted up in the lift line on Saturday. Sorry to hear you won't be riding your C&D's for a while.Quote:

Pretty much a steady stream of SAR vehicles going up as I went down. Hope it was just a natural and nobody got caught in it. The patrol closed the fingers/ridge/slushman's, but I'm unsure if they opened slushman's earlier.
I was just walking my dog over by the fairgrounds and saw a ton of cars by the SAR shed, guess i know why! It sounds like no one was caught, i hope that's the case.
since i too am laid up for a few weeks, if anyone wants to check out my blizzard titan kreitler pro models let me know. bsl shouldnt matter, as long as you fit a large duke. the skis can be had cheap on BC.com and untracked.com, so if you miss the days of old school GS skis and wonder what your old atomic red sleds would be like twice as wide, check them out. 119 mm underfoot and a 58m turn radius, traditional camber, no sidecut.
Hope everyone is safe!
