    This video is like trying to hide Brett from your friends; he might be a really cool guy when you get to know him. But it's difficult getting past his caustic words and smug superiority.

    Oh Cyrano, it must be so pleasurable looking down your long nose at the gapers and cougars that make up your kingdom.
    A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly.

    Leave the gapic attitude over at gapicski IG. I know where you're from, you're lucky your acceptance was so easy here considering the time you put in over there. Don't get the two places confused, even though those were your friends on the film. Be cool. -Blurred

    The canyons have some great terrain. The good Inspector will show you around if you're nice to him.

    Holy crap! A 2 minute ski video with about 15 seconds of skiing on trails flatter than the stuff we have in Maryland.

    Brett,

    Are you so sure you have been "accepted" here? Considering the time you've put in being a jackass.

    Personally I don't really mind your mindless rantings, but I'm sure there are a few here who do. I'm quite certain there are a few people here who wouldn't ski with you for anything.

    By the way, I post on Epic every once in a while. I also read it quite frequently. But I guess that makes me a gaper. It's all about having fun on the snow, no matter how you do it.

Not enthusiastically, but I'll make it up there eventually.

    Last time I checked, the Canyons got more snow than wherever in the middle of flatsville you live. I also haven't been there, but from what I've heard its a good day when its cold down low... it IS lower than alta/the bird/solitude/park city so on a warmer day its supposed to get purty slushy.

    phUnk would know. CAN SOMEONE WHO ISN'T BLOCKED BY PHUNK QUOTE THIS AND ASK HIM FOR CANYONS BETA?

    sorry, my blocked by phUnk attribute is acting up

    You know what asswipe? Skiing was dying 7 years ago because of the Epicski attitude that dominated the industry complete with a fartbag. That is demonstrated in "The Canyons" promo vid link. Snowboarding was cool, skiing wasn't. There is a common mindset in the freeskiing world that has helped change skiings image, which in turn has saved the sport and open doors to all sorts people making a living in the sport. (IE film companies, ski companies)

    My goal is not to get along with everyone "Bob", but to do my part in keeping the sport where it should be. Therefor, myself, my crew and friends will continue to make fun of gapers like you wearing your Dorkasaurus hat, fartbag, neon, fur, skiblades and rear-entries.....and if that means I won't be "accepted" by you and the rest of the gapers, so be it.

    You don't have any impact on skiing whatsoever. Get over yourself.
