More cardio dude, you are in shitty shape.
Just kidding, glad it turned out o.k.I have been in this State for 30 years and I am willing to admit that I am part of the problem.

Flame away, but this just reinforces for me that highmarking is fucking stupid.
Glad you're ok though.

Were both of you guys in there on one sled or is yours just out of view somewhere?
Only because I know both of you were okay but........that's going to be kind of a comical video to you in a few years I think.
What would have obviously sucked is if your buddy got buried and you had no way whatsoever to get up to him. Glad that worked out.Besides the comet that killed the dinosaurs nothing has destroyed a species faster than entitled white people.-ajp

I bet buddy has never ran so fast in snow in his life !!!
if it was deep he was pooched ...
from the opening clip I didnt think it safe where he was standing, especially under that sort of terrain.
everyone underestimates propagation, trimlines and safetys ...We, the RATBAGGERS, formally axcept our duty is to trigger avalaches on all skiers ...
