Amazing pics. Are these ALL from tgr tr's?! I missed so many great shots...the first time 'round. Excellent thread. And still another ten weeks or so to go at Whistler, so there'll be some nice late entries, I'm sure.
This is nice:

gunders shot ^^^. hands down. one of the radder photos ive ever seen. but i feel like his status as super-rad-photo-dude-who-gets-published-in-powder-and-ski-journal-all-the-time should disqualify him. that's be like picking drew or alka for mag huck o' the year.

Agreed 100%. That shot blows me away every time I see it, but shouldn't be in the running IMO. Of the ones posted so far, this bad boy has my vote.



Such an amazing shot. Just unreal. One of the most unique shots I've ever seen.

In addition, these deserve to be in the running. The first is from
TR: 3 feet of 900 fill Goose Down 1-23-08, or, the Deepest Day of my Life. Thanks for this, GoldenBoy. Hands down, this is the deepest TR of the season. With the season you've had, something from CB should definitely be in this thread!



Likewise, with the Teton's epic season, they need to be represented here. Wish I could remember where this one came from. Pretty sure it was from Turkey Day.



This one just brings a smile to my face...



1-13-08 Bells Canyon-Thunder Mtn, from Trackhead. There are a few amazing shots in this TR.



To commemorate the other memorable side of this season, I'll also nominate this one. The awe factor is extreme.

skijunky in rubberneck.

when you take into account the entire line, the consequences, and the hugeness, he wins hands down.

[powder_prophet]

^^^That was quite the line...

[StuntCok]

I don't want to make this thread NSFW so i won't post the photo but I would still like to nominate Splat's picture of the argentinian "model" with the bros.

[The Real Truth]

I'm not typical

A newly renovated house in Ogden: $200,000
All the latest and greatest ski and photo gear: $10,000
A Snowbasin season pass: $950
Still being a self congratulating trust funded douchebag from Chicago: PRICELESS!!!!!

[Pow4Brains]

They all win!

Pretty much. Thanks Maggots!

Is this NSFW?

Can you say lift served? just saying.

Goldenboy has quite a few high consequence lines and earns his turns.

ah yes. 1st thing i thought of when i saw that picture. gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay.

Lift served?? Yes you take a lift to the top but to get to the top of rubber neck is at least a half hour of boot packing......

fuck it skijunkie gets it for more then just that photo....

[chuckh]

This is the best shot. everything else is fluffer. everyone for their home team.

Bingo.

Here's one I took of Corky. The line is not mindblowing but the light at sunset on the mountains is ephereal.





And taking the thread down a notch...

nope, those were all from the nissan mammoth quest.

[SonnyBoy]

truth, you are pretty fucking rad

[Arelius19]

This is a stunning photo.
As a photo guy I really think this is one of the very best ski shots I've seen in terms of lighting, color, composition, etc…
Both in terms of skiing and a photograph this is simply sick…

lamest post ever

i didn't realize all photos had to pass your gnar criteria. ridiculous.

what the fuck does "earn his turns" even mean. did he skin in for 10 miles? did he boot up 3000 vert? who the fuck cares? skijunky earned his line.

what if the sickest line on the planet was at the top of a lift? would it be any less sick? post some pix or STFUYFM.

just saying.

IMO,
1st

2nd

3rd

4th

5th


Edit:Please no AK pics,it just complicates things.

[f2f]

if it's got to be just one photo, it should be Gunder's. otherwise Kya is right: all of them win.
