David Lesh arrested for FD Virtika Last Friday video
According to The Boulder Daily Camera, professional skier and FD Wear founder David Lesh was arrested late Thursday night on felony gun charges, felony eluding, reckless endangerment and drug possession.
Breckenridge authorities confirmed three weeks of coordinating with the Boulder police to investigate a string of crimes that were recorded on video and uploaded to the Internet several weeks ago. Law enforcement officials received numerous complaints and reports from concerned citizens after watching "Last Friday", a video that what was intended to gain publicity for Lesh's company.
When police attempted to arrest Lesh, he fled in his sports car, crashing through some thick trees causing the car to flip and come to rest inverted. Lesh attempted to flee on foot but was apprehended within the first mile by police canines.
Lesh, a convicted felon, was held in Boulder County Jail until his Friday arraignment and was released on a $80,000 bond under the condition that he immediately produce a video where he publicly apologizes for his actions. Lesh's trial is set for May 23rd.
Lesh commented with the following:
"I would like to apologize for the actions my friends and I took. We acted very irresponsibly, and it's a miracle no one was injured. We vow to only portray ourselves as positive role models in the future. We will be releasing our public apology video in the next week."

A better April Fool's joke would have been something about FD Wear winning a Clio for running the first-ever ad campaign aimed directly at retarded people.

God I wish this was true.
FD Wearers should be hung by their own tall tees

Pathetic on both ends, regardless If he actually ran from the cops, or if they are just trolling for publicity. I dunno why anyone would want to be affiliated with FD wear or their crew....

What concerns me more than any of this is if I'll have drip or espresso for my afternoon coffee.

Yeah, but in Yurp, if you order a coffee before dinner, they look at you weird. A profound sense of violating the cultural etiquette of epicurean delicacies by proposing such blasphemy is sometimes realized in the sideways glances waiters give you.

If only this were true, I'd have one small bit of advice for Lesh
y'know, because Lesh would be the victim of violent and painful prison rape from which he would never mentally or physically recoverLast edited by adam; 04-02-2012 at 09:48 PM.

It must be awesome to be a professional skier sponsored solely by the clothing company you are also the founder of.

It dicks with the taste buds dude. That's not so much of a problem in the States, where (I'm led to believe) all your food tastes of salt, but over here we like to know what our dinner is saying to us.
To bypass the etiquette issue, have your coffee in a different bar before heading into the restaurant. The staff will still know what you are doing, and hate you for it, but at least you won't fall asleep into your ris de veau aux pommes caramelisees et calvados.

when you speak of what your dinner is saying to you, in America, we call those farts.
