I'm going to have to go ahead and disagree with you.

I'm with ya. Overloaded.......

Nice work man! Thanks for sharing.

**grskier** · 11-06-2008, 07:55 PM

Nice work....

as always.

**meatdrink9** · 11-06-2008, 08:05 PM

Thanks all. GT40, my dad, at age 56 crushed pretty much everybody on the uphill (passed numerous groups). I was good lung wise, but my thighs were on fire on the second lap. I got some work to do.

SSD, thanks. I sort of wanted to go build a booter, but the turns were pretty damn fun.

mofro, you do what you have to early and late season. I probably only skinned 3 or 4 times total last season. Depending on what terrain resorts open up shortly I may do quite a bit more this year.

Jake, sorry we missed you. I'm sure we'll be down that way again very soon.

**Rasputin** · 11-06-2008, 08:15 PM

BRAVO MAESTRO!

**GingerKidd** · 11-06-2008, 08:50 PM

Most excellent stoke. I'm quite pleased to say that I will be passing by Alta this Sunday. Should I try and access Alta from Snowbird or am I better off just skinning the liftline?

You'll get more vert at Bird, but a lot more pow in the BC. Scope out the lines on the hill before you buy a pass. It may be tracked by then. Monday AM is a new storm & should be money by that afternoon.

I was looking forward to just getting out for some exercise, and didn't think that much about the DH. My first run down I was giggling like a little school girl. Last year preseason was great, but today was even better. The 2nd lap was very long, untracked, steep & deep. When it works out that perfect it can mess with your brain. I'm not use to getting perfection.

**kokomas** · 11-06-2008, 10:35 PM

i'm happy for you guys. way to kill it. i'm also happy for myself because i'll be there sat thru tues. hah.

**bio-smear** · 11-07-2008, 03:25 AM

boner achieved.

Who is the musical artist on that first clip? I like that.

**skiingsamurai** · 11-07-2008, 09:00 AM

"Even with a serious whiskey dick, that video got the job done"

**Eldo** · 11-07-2008, 09:08 AM

The band is Foals. They straight-up rule. I think "Antidotes" (album name) is probably one of the top 3 albums of this year IMHO. The song is called "heavy water". The band is also very down to earth. They played a freaking garage in SLC. Before the show they hung out drinking our death water bottles with us and then we all went out to the bar after. Nobody in SLC had heard of them so they were stoked when our little group showed up and knew every song word for word. I guess they sell out larger venues in Europe. SLC was just a pit stop on the way from the Monolith festival at Red Rocks and some other festival they were playing on the west coast. SLC usually sucks for live music, but occasionally just due to it's location on a map you get really good acts that nobody here really follows and you get these awesome tiny shows.
