    Cool Video TR: The Spiral: Where does it bring you?

    Please 'save as' when uploading. Thanks.

    The Spiral Vid Link


    The Spiral

    The spiral is a journey along a path that is never straight or predictable. It’s a journey around a fixed center point or focus, where many outside factors revolve around it’s axis. The center point is never the same, as there’s always some sort of deviation from the previous path. Even though the spiral is based around one given point or subject, we are able to see all angles of the subject as we revolve around the focus along an ever changing path. The ride along this channel is never easy or hard, nor simple or complex. The spiral allows us to push our inner limits, set our minds free, and seek new opportunity. Riding the spiral forces us to adapt, think creatively, and approach our challenges in different ways. The spiral possesses both negative and positive properties, however there’s always something to take or learn from the journey in the end. For me, the spiral is what makes skiing adventurous and unique. Where will the spiral take you?

    Ending scene kicked ass, nice pow.

    I know why you got Dynafits now, cause the guy with Trabs and Dynafits showed you the light. Finally.

    Yeah, it only took 17 miles, 17.5 hours, and 11K of climbing for me to see the light .

    "I embrace my desire to
    feel the rhythm, to feel connected
    enough to step aside and weep like a widow
    to feel inspired, to fathom the power,
    to witness the beauty, to bathe in the fountain,
    to swing on the spiral
    of our divinity and still be a human."

    Yeah Maynard.

    The frightening thing is PowderPig bought that set up as his "keep up with Dave on tours" set up. Now Dave is gonna be even more off the front.
