SKIING MEGA thread

[Brak]

I'm the captain for my school's ski team. Right now I'm on a pair of 180cm Salomon Equipe 10 Lab skis for GS. I got the cool looking green race plate and S912 (i think, maybe s914) bindings. Got some rossignol power boots. My old crossmax's are on ebay right now to fund a pair of bump skis, i just fell in love with moguls and i can't use my race skis, so im getting a pair of mogul skis

I got a free pair of Solomon's a few years back, slapped some bindings on them (don't remember what kind right now) and I need to find new boots that actually fit.

On the other hand I'm in no rush cause I don't go skiing nearly enough.

I found a really sick ski vid that I thought I'd share with you guys. I found it on newschoolers ski forum, its called dirty money. Its like 23 minutes long. Really good stuff. Also it only takes a minute to download. Heres the link.

I meant like, I ride morrow board, burton bindings, ronin jacket/pants. etc. I only have 1 board .

540, nice. I should start trying bigger spins(only feel safe on 360s), but I am scared of 540's because of how much rotation you have, and I kinda suck at landing switch/fakie. Maybe at the end of the season, after I have 'spent' my season pass, I dont really feel like hurting myself bad at the expense of my 350$ season pass.

I ride at a wannabe ski-resort called Caberfae Peaks

yeah, i started with 360's for the whole year. the last day my friends just like screw it. go for it(if you know me you would know i could care less if i had gotten hurt) so iwent for it and came down almost right... olny ended up breaking my wrist and thumb my advice is just go for it.

I dont know, I'm getting to the point where I cant really risk hurting myself seriously. I did land a nice 360 mute though yesterday

ive broken.. well more then i can count.... bones in my body most of them could have easaly been avoided.. you know when you watch the show jackass and they say dont try this at home.. im out there doing it right away... so far both of my legs have been broken 5(_right) and 4 (left).. so im not really worried about getting hurt. but if you wanna continue the season and not ruin 8 weeks of your life... just wait till your 100% comfortable. and do it on a soft powder day. where your not gonna slam the ice.. congrats on the 3 tho!

You've broken both your legs a combined nine times? Holy ****, dude. I've broken one once and I thought I was tough coming back that season. Big props to you, man.

[quik]

I'm sorry that you broke your legs 9 times total. You must really suck or something ???

[kosmo]

So how many of you ski drunk? And if so, do you do so competitively?

haha what they do up here is build this monster ramp. and they get a bunch of norweigens and they all spend an hour or 2 getting drunk. then they have to see who can crash the hardest of the big jump... they also jump over fire... gotta love south dakota
