Back in the Day... 1996

**bklyn** · 01-19-2006, 03:52 PM

Going through some old photos, I found this gem from Jan '96 in Whistler:

So steezy!

Rossi boots, K2's, and matching from head to toe.

What were you doing 10 yrs ago?

**teledave** · 01-19-2006, 03:59 PM

Same year, same place, not nearly as much steeze.

Don't ask what I'm holding in the hand you can't see.

Holy shit! Brooklyn, now that is a photo...Gotta watch what I say on this one.

Want to see a picture of me then, look above at my avitar...10 years ago I wasn't even on the snow...stuck in college at Ohio State, nothing to do but watch sports or shot pool/throw darts in a bar and drink pitchers like they were 12ozers...talk about a place with nothing to do in the winter.

peace,
D.

Nice goggles, too!

I was looking at some photos from my first ski trip in '96 and was disappointed there wasn't much neon. I'm glad to see bklyntrayc was still keepin' it real! I bet all the Japanese tourists were envious

It's the goggles. That's where your steeze comes from.

Shit, 10 years ago, I was a gen-you-wine ski bum with a seasons pass at JH.
I think that was the year I got a pair of Volkl Explosives and I ddin't like to ski them all the time cuz they were just so outrageously fat

**powstash** · 01-19-2006, 04:13 PM

Hah, I was just thinking about an old photo from 1998 that by buddy took of me. This is the perfect thread to post it in.

Salomon Super Mountains - so phat back then

Eggs and kegs for the Meat-Chicken Game, dumping half buckets of old swill from the second floor onto U of M dipshits with balls to walk around Columbus wearing blue...Bummer Joe's is toast (been gone now for a few yrs), along with Mustards, Skyline...was back in town for a game this year and the south end of campus has been replaced by corporateville.

Go Bucks!! Great year this year, even better next year (both f-ball and b-ball)...

peace,

My dog ate those cebe goggles. She started to associate them with my long absences.

**72Twenty** · 01-19-2006, 05:09 PM

**bakers_dozen** · 01-19-2006, 06:13 PM

Second year of highschool for me. I think 1996 was the year I first got to ski something other than the 90' local bump we had in London, Ontario: Sainte-Anne in Quebec. Never looked back.

**bakers_dozen** · 01-19-2006, 07:35 PM

You still London? I've only been tubing on that hill you have there, that was fun

**The Reverend Floater** · 01-19-2006, 07:54 PM

Unfuckingcontrollable steeze, Bryk. You radiate radness while eminating odors of unbelievable stylee sickness.

And teledave apparenlty found Nirvana in a one piece!

**BobMc** · 01-19-2006, 08:14 PM

Another of the mad hot pink steeze.

No way. I left London as soon as I could, nothing there for me. I'm in Ottawa now, but heading out west as soon as I can get some things settled here.

Someone told me that Bolar "mountain" (aka Bolar Bump) has converted the tubing hills into a park.
