I guess if "little girly man" means the guy who is in CO practicing his drinking skills and taking huge tomahawk crashes, then that is me. All while you're in OC hanging from your cubicle.

(holy fuck did I take a big one in CB on Saturday. 25 footer to rocks/hardpack, explosion and slide for life/tomahawk for five hundred feet. I feel like I was in a car accident. A few bruises, a black eye, a bent ski and a cracked helmet.)

This post is useless without pics.

I'm in for sure. Just set up the syllabus for my spring quarter class so that my students will be having their midterm May 13th, which means no lectures to prep that weekend, yay! I'll probably be bringing a group of non-mag friends too.

**Ubersheist** · 03-26-2008, 06:28 PM

I'm sure I'll be there.

Anyone from the Norcal/Sacramento area want to carpool?

I'll also be looking to chip in for a condo or rent a room for the weekend...

I'm only going if MTT promises to flatten another control-fence.....(like the one behind him)

**divegirl** · 03-26-2008, 08:50 PM

I'd just like to post here to say I'm going to be there for sure. And, I can't wait!! This is going to be fun.

This pic is stolen from Tri-ungulate's teletips TR from 2007. The orange shows where I took off and where I landed. The green shows where I started my tumble and the direction I took. Its not a fully accurate picture because a bit more is filled in this year.

**TWINS** · 03-26-2008, 10:30 PM

^^^^^^^^^^^Thats better

Tomahawks are so last year.Glad you are O.K. somewhat.Where is MTT? We need his expertise at ripping out the netting again this year.

That was a classic day.

I think it all began with me almost helicopter chopping a snowboarder's head off, then MTT "General Leeing" me off the lip of that groomer zoomer off the gondola line.

then it went something like this:

1. I almost ran over Captain Powder on MTT's Legend Pros
2. MTT attempted to show us all how to ride beefy (as in 9lbs each) skis after mucho grande libatory intake
3. It's a pity nobody captured the epic cartwheel wipe-out that occurred before he took down the netting.

As for the whereabouts of MTT? I saw him in Ootah back in Feb, but failed to make any turns with him. Heard he was schussing Rose with Corky a few weeks back, too.

Dookey, we should talk about carpooling. I even know where Fort FKNA is.

**StroupSkier** · 03-27-2008, 04:51 PM

I'm headed to a wedding in Sactown the weekend after, so I'm going to try and show up early for the mini.

Quit yer "girly-man" whining. A real man would have tomahawked at least 600 feet

So are you going to the mini?

I'm not sure yet. I hope so. It will probably be a last minute decision. I'm impulsive (read: indecisive) that way.

**SponsoredByDuctTape** · 03-28-2008, 04:31 PM

I might try to make it. Just depends on how close I am to walking normally (I will definitely not be skiing). Will probably be a last minute (or last few days) decision.

Talk to Daywalker. I bumped into him on the hill today, skiing on the company dime. He knows how to step into good $hit. And you must come to mammoth.

You should come, we can hang out, get hammered, and make the "normies" dance for our spare painkillers.

**Elle Be** · 03-28-2008, 11:10 PM

You guys will be the most popular bunch on the hill, with your pharmacy bag.

j/k
