Thread: The new Collins kicks ASS!!!!

Sorry AC and 72, but felt this was worthy of its own thread

See link below for shots (i.e. pictures of day) of Hardcore and I scoring first chair and a spot in Alta's storied history as well as the last shot is our very own Altard bustin' highboy for Jette.

Today wasn't a super sick, deep, over your head Alta day - but it was sick because of being a part of Alta history.
Pro ho's were linin' up early just like us locals. So cool to see the likes of sage, chris, sledford, gordy, mc reynolds, yada, yada, yada vi-ing for first chair will all of us. Coolest vibe I've felt for awhile.

And HUGE fuggin heartfelt props to Alta for letting us have the very first chair - no Onno, no Alan Engen, no Connie, nobody else but those that have earned that first chair year in and year out.

First chair also earned me a free lunch at GMD and a free pitcher at GMD also. So many mags in attendance today at Alta I'm sure I'll miss some - AC, mr. AG, altard, poho, cs, md, gt, str8, grizz, p-tex, skibe, rotknee, >, larry, b-rad, Sandy, phunk, gaper joe, altaholic, super g, etc. - but it was so cool to see them gettin' in on the stoke.

Finally, the lift kicking ass. So nice to whip long, full, top to bottom, in your face laps. The thing stopped way less than I expected today. Only complaint is they need to dig out the mid-station a little more - definite calf pincher.

I could go on about amazing coverage right now, super sick wind buff, creamy pow, the maggots that are coming out with guns blazin, etc. all night long - but the PELICAN awaits.

Tomorrow will not suck either.

Damn it feels good to be home

edit cause I just saw myself on tv; Red Baron you better match that lame ass channel 2!!!

I have to admit that I thought it was a good day...

I stayed on Supreme almost all day...

Cheers!

Nice X, so awesome that alta let skiers take the first chair.
Looks like I gots to get down there soon.

Kick ass, that totally overshadows my getting 2nd tram of the year... how eary did you get there?

Good job! Way more motivation than I had, we were only waiting in line for about a 1/2 hour this morning

Took 4 laps on the new quad...saw Mr. AG, and 'ho from a distance but thats 'bout it. Don't know the area too well, but stayed on the high-t (and had great stuff all AM.

So that's where you were. Didn't you get my text msg about meeting up?

Agreed...the new lift is pretty damn sweet, that midstation did suck but I'm sure they'll get that fixed soon, I'm not complaining. High T was sweet all day long!
Your post rocked Xover, I can really feel the stoke!

Them's some serial bragging rights, X.
I hope someone filmed it, so when you're old, you can show that footy to your kids. A momentous happening. Some day it will be history.

Schweet. Way to be on the first chair of the 'Pain train." i expected no less. This is you, the second from the right, correct?

I assume that's Xover with the skull helmet?
Is that a PM sticker on the helmet behind him?
I'm surprised the chick with the knife didn't get firsts.

... believe or not, that's Gordy with no pm stick

dude never makes it up before 1 anymore, but for the resort that played a big part in making him what he is today he busts outta bed early and lines up way before opening - how loyal is that??

only Alta puts that kinda thang in your soul - and I mean "in your soul"

The first people to line up showed up at 6 friggin 30.
