You are responsible for everything downslope of you. Don’t be a kook.Skier charged with manslaughter after killing 5-year-old in crash
A man faces manslaughter charges in connection with a high-speed crash on a ski slope that left a 5-year-old girl dead.www.fox5ny.com
The only time I ever went after someone with the intent to cause harm, was at Mammoth when some drunk a$$ just about took out one of my kids near chair 25. My son gave me the thumbs up that he was OK and I took after this idiot intent to run him over. I was about 50 yards from the guy when he almost hit a kid in a lesson near the bottom at 15 and ski patrol was there in an instant and pulled his MVP pass.You are responsible for everything downslope of you. Don’t be a kook.
I had a good collision with this Indian guy at mammoth last season. I was on an intermediate run under gold rush express that kinda traverses towards Lincoln. He had the high line on skiiers right and was moving at a decent clip and I was approaching him on the left side at roughly twice his speed. He was regular foot and I knew I was on his blind side but I saw him going straight and gave him a real wide berth like a solid 30’ and right as I’m about to pass him he cuts hard without lookIng on his heel edge straight into my line. I slammed on the brakes and put my board on my heel edge to avoid him and I think had I reacted a split second earlier I would have been able to avoid contact but I didn’t. My board caught the back of his boots knocking him clean off his feet. He did almost a clean backflip over my head landing behind me. We dusted ourselves off, both apologized and laughed and went on our way. I shouldn’t have passed him on his blind side and he should have looked before cutting hard across the trail at speed.Love Lincoln. The upgrade of 9 has brought too many people to that side of the Mtn. Would spend hours with my kids turning laps on 25 and 9 with little to no crowd and good snow all day mid mtn.
I almost ran over one of my best friends a couple of years ago in Utah. He was pretty far ahead me but he's slower than me and I was flying and had a good line to pass behind him. Out of nowhere he just falls right in my line. I lay it down and try and stop short but end up hitting him pretty good. Now I only get going real fast on the groomers when there's a real clear path and I have distance to correct.
Stocked. Some of snowboarding’s ancient/little known history went down in that canyon.Just booked snowbird for next weekend.
Need to get the stun gun waxed and edged…View attachment 122962
Such a great video. “Nature was always my friend”, Japanese snowboarders are always so chill.The turns they do is kind of what I want to get out of surfing. Call it super swooping.
