Moguls moguls moguls!

[4aprice]

I posted about this in the Mt. Snow bump thread but then I saw this one so I'll post again. My home mountain, Hidden Valley, which had been completely groomed my last 3 years as a pass holder, seems to be allowing bumps to form now. Tonight Kurly Kue was completely bumped up and the last couple of times I was there Helenbeck was bumped (tonight Helenbeck was groomed).

I spent a season as an instructor at Hidden Valley in 1988. At that time they used to let the skiers right side of Breakneck form moguls. It was a pretty good winter snow wise and they were there a good majority of the season.

Is this reminiscent of "Fusion Zones"????

Glenn, I'm 99.99999% sure that Vcunning will post more embarrasing vids of you in a few weeks then what I'm sure is the "cinematic masterpiece" that M took of you in the bumps!

Yep, I'll take care of posting Glenn's video shortly. I know he regrets sending me those photos.

why do they have to point out they are man made? all the hate for seeded bumps, even from the resorts!!!

:lol: I've already be "caricatured" by said pics. :grin:

Probably due to the D-bags from (insert state) that raise these ridiculous law suits that drove bumps out of skiing to begin with.

Fixed it for you. You are so spot on.

Solid! I can see the leg burn we were commisurating about later day in The Midstation :lol:

 

[Glenn]

Jeff...it was 10x worse at the end of that run. I was sweating like crazy too. :lol:

Can anyone see the video that's embedded in the post or do you have to use the URL? All I see for the embedded on is a Vimeo logo with a bunch of spinning crap...like it's trying to load or something.

Here you go Glenn . . . you just need to hit the vimeo button and type in the 7 digit number between them.

I'm very impressed how you can ski sideways for the first part of the run

 

[Glenn]

Thanks V! I was entering the entire URL. I suck at the internet...that's the second time in two days I suck @ the internet.

That's actually after editing! I technically skied sideways most of the vid. I couldn't figure out how to rotate the vid after the first few seconds...so I had to rotate the the entire thing. HA!

Well Glenn, you know as I 've heard your wife say more than once, "if your coat didn't weigh 50lbs......" :lol:

She had me clean out the pockets Sunday after skiing. I refused to remove the leatherman. I swear, that coat wieighs 47lbs on it's own.

looking good Glen!

Two bump runs at Catamount as of Saturday. They look pretty worked in (although they weren't open for night skiing so I didn't try them) so I am assuming they have been there a while. Sunapee had a bunch earlier in February too. Bumps everywhere!

 

[bvibert]

Nice video Glenn!

 

[Glenn]

Thanks guys! I'm glad she "filmed" me. I gotta work on quieting down the ol arms.

 

[Greg]

Nice skiing!
