edgDo you realize that you've just posted an admission of ignorance so breathtaking that it disqualifies you from commenting on any political or economic threads from here on out?

I dont know editing is pretty good, its infomative, better to look at snow, than green leaves. Nice powder on the second "segment". But some parts of this make me laugh, you guys are great at building it "up" and the show us some less than mediocro bumps skiing...
I will give you you thumbs up on back flip I couldnt do that but you guys arent that great at the "skiing" part of your skiing video in fact not even good...to be honest.
Keep on trying and just remember you are posting to one of the most jaded web forums on the internet.
tip for next year PM a LCC local and have them show where to go and maybe give you a few pointers like not riding on your tails in 3 feet of powder that was just painful watching it.Last edited by BushwackerinPA; 07-02-2006 at 05:27 PM.

Props for not turning that much and for putting Matisyahu on the soundtrack. Also, that was a fairly sick zipper line at the 5:01 mark.
I'll rate it ++fluffernutter sandwich.

Tough crowd. I personally enjoyed your skiing perspective although I had to chuckle a bit at your percieved radness. I tend to side with foggy and str8line on this one. There are no radness requirements for stoke contribution. Thanks for sharing!

That was so fucking gay, it makes drinking an appletini while wearing espadrilles look like doing heroin while castrating a steer.
By the way, I haven't watched it. I'm just really, really bored.

How do you know he's from Michigan? I figured the same thing because only someone from Michigan would put Bob Seger in the soundtrack Originally Posted by reidhresko

It wasn't all that bad. The editing, especially for the intro, was good, and the very last huck was decent sized, and your park stuff was pretty good.
If I can give you one tip for your skiing though, learn to ski faster. I never saw one turn bigger than GS size, and it would do wonders for you to learn to ski with longer, smoother turns, like Super G to Downhill sized turns. You can definitly see the east coast steeze shining through.__________________________________________________ __________________________________________________ ________________

Heh, yea. Maybe why people don't believe you when you say you drop 80 footers, is because you only show them the 20-30 footers. Originally Posted by WWCD

Out past the cornfields where the woods got heavy
Out in the back seat of my 60 chevy
Workin on mysteries without any clues
Workin on our night moves
Tryin to make some front page drive-in news
Workin on our night moves
In the summertime
In the sweet summertime
these lyrics epitomize the soul of the most extreme skiing available in north america. i honestly cant think of a better song to help your friends back home understand your feeling and emotion of experiencing bump lines on top of a mind boggling 30 ft snow pack. well played.
