    Have you ever grinded a chairlift cable?

    Two weeks ago high speed winds (more than 200 kms./h. caused chairlift cable went out in Sierra Nevada, Spain.

    What could we do?

    Very noice!

    Guessing this is a horrible thing to do to a pair of skis /snowboard?

    And wasn´t this done in an old MDP or TB movie? Except the cable was where it should be?

    I'm grinding something right now...
    Jak and Jil skinned up the hill to rip some epic lines...
    Jak cruised down throwing a huge mute 3...
    Followed by Jil with a 9.

    Very nice! The photos are pretty cool, too. Nice colors and all. Was it a Burton demo day?

    I'm surprised there was enough tension in the cable

    Very, very, very sick. Best first-ish post ever. Congrats my good man (or wo-man)
    "She loved snow...That was the simple objective, being airborne, up longer, higher, more casually and with more fuckoff elegance than anyone else...Such endeavours require a kind of egotism, a near autistic narrowness. Everything conspires against you, the habits of physics, the impulse to flee and you're weighted down by every dollop of commonsense ever dished up. Everyone will tell you your goal is impossible, pointless, stupid, wasteful. This idiot resolve is all you have."

    I was ready for a troll when I clicked on the thread but was pleasantly surprised. Good job for a first post.
