    Exactly. Just make sure everyone is ready to go when need be. Its not like the cop is going to jump out and chase you down the pass.

    Thats a pretty sick shot.

    These comments are from people who have never been on loveland pass. Down hill always comes back to the road for the most part.

    If you have to ask if it's illegal, you're too old to be doing it.

    Go big or go home. If you are going to gap a road in CO, you might as well do I-70. Right in front of the Eisenhower tunnel would be the best place. Permits are for pussies.

    I agree it is a constitutional right for Americans to be assholes...its just too bad that so many take the opportunity...

    I reckon the Lake Louise off ramp of the trans-Canada coming from Banff would be fun. Big in run but not a step down. I think its been done. Anybody know?

    Isnt that kind of a silly question......40 to either a wall or pavement? Yes, we made it.

    I was first, and went way too far. Then CP 1, at a perfect speed. Then Norwegian dude, Sondra, spun and went slightly smaller (and ate shit). Then Norwegian dude, Tomarious, made two turns on the run in, threw a back and landed perfectly on the lip, sticking it (it was actually really sketchy how close he came).

    Where is that gap Alka??

    Do not end up like this guy:
    Kill all the telemarkers
    But they’ll put us in jail if we kill all the telemarkers
    Telemarketers! Kill the telemarketers!
    Oh we can do that. We don’t even need a reason

    To answer above, that was a 3, I also threw a laid out fronty that give me an unforgettable view. Let's just say supermanning your self over a hwy is a fucking amazing experience. Really did feel like flying.

    Actually i have. You have obviously never run from the police thought. The chances of one cop waiting at the exact spot you get back to the road are slim, and if youre headed for the road and you see a cop waiting for you...keep skiing down.
