I got asked yet again if those are waterskis. I've started answering "yes."

That's fricken hilarious!

At Mt. Southington last night, wearing my official instructor jacket, standing in line for the lift. We're probably 2/3 of the way down the line closer to the chair. People in front of and behind us, we're basically walking, but it is slightly downhill.

A kid skis into me from behind.

Kid: "Whoa, whoops."
Me: "It's ok, just try to stop sooner next time."
Kid: "It's hard to stop without poles."
Me: "You should try to ski in control."
Kid: "I don't pizza. That's for old ladies and little kids."

I shook my head and got on the lift with the kids in my lesson.

A little while later, I saw a different kid skiing in jeans and rental gear, jeans stuffed into his boots, boots totally unbuckled, skiing through the park. I watched him go off of the small jump (10ish feet to ICE - its CT). He slowed down to the point where he went off of the jump and landed 5 feet BEFORE the knuckle. "EXTREME AIR! YEAH!"

Bwahahaha, I totally missed that until now. Are there streamers that have been cropped out of the pic?

I shall forever use this new terminology in my everyday life. Sooooo core!

Yeah, it can be hard to tell. I watched a guy in a starter jacket that said something about rugby and wearing a mullet rip down Saddle chute at Rose (which incidentally has a strict no mullet policy posted at the entrance--surprised patrol hadn't pulled his pass. Standards must be upheld, no matter how well someone skis.)

I think it's bitchin' that some dude is out there rippin it with jeans and a mullet. Dude has more to lose if he falls! Playin' with fire... i love it. I hope he was rocking 215 straight skis too.

Ghost ski with boot flying downhill...Saw that in WI in the 70's. Ski punctured the radiator of a car parked in the front row of the parking lot.

I've haven't seen a ski do that, but I did see a leashless snowboard do a perfect backflip off a quarter pipe and then smoke a house right beside its basement window.

**coldsmoker** · 01-21-2011, 07:54 PM

^^^^^^^^ not a quarter pipe, its a half stunt ditch

**karpiel** · 01-22-2011, 05:32 PM

This is full of win. (fail?)
Loveland pow pow day!

Even has the single biner on the backpack.

**skibum_jr** · 01-22-2011, 05:56 PM

Worst pov i've seen in a long time. That guy has to work on his camera angles. It gave me a headache

Man, I was about to dog you for harshing the guys vibe, but WTF???

Guy posts a vid ostensibly about the "pow pow", then proceeds to torture us with 7 minutes of staring at his masked face while he rips blue groomers???

That is fucked up.

**montanaskier** · 01-22-2011, 11:06 PM

is that a beacon or a PLB?

Considering the camera appears to be on a shovel and he has the single biner on a pack in bounds , I bet it's a beacon.

I think I actually saw the guy skiing that day, I first noticed the mask, made me chuckle.

I also like how the movie starts with a minute of driving away from Loveland.

**f2f** · 01-23-2011, 12:18 AM

the most annoying part was hogging the left lane on the highway for prolonged periods. people like that should be shot.

**Shadam** · 01-23-2011, 12:27 AM

Then continues with a ride on Lift 2 from the bottom. Clearly the guy doesn't know what he's doing. I gave up after about a minute of Darth Vader shovel-cam footage.
