18+ INCHES HEADED to the NORTH EAST.. THUR 13th Thru SUNDAY 16th (4 EPIC DAYS POWDER)

Do we need a reason or is this more of an excuse?

That's riding dirty....like he is going to take a shit in the snow. Can you be anymore backseat buddy?

Seriously? To you know the first thing about ski technique? For starters, I'm angulating at about 45 degrees. My torso is vertical. I'm driving the outside ski very well, my leg is completely straight. The snow is SLOW, 2 ft deep melting melting mank where the balance point is very far back and it's very thin cover. Any further forward and I'm over the bars.

Learn how to ski, please.

I'm not going to even try to go back and forth about my technical ability. People on here have seen me ski. Your analysis blows as much as your skiing. You're skiing like your scared. Waaaay too much in the back seat, leaning into the hill with your uphill hand almost touching the snow. Poser

Scared? Riiiight. I highly doubt any of you have ever skied anything like that terrain and snow with that level of speed and skill.

There is no other way to ski 3 day old melting untracked mank than in the "back seat", best you can hope for is to keep your upper body in a correct position. Sad thing is, none of you have have ever found untracked mank, so you really wouldn't have any idea, now would you? The snow is so wet the skis just don't want to glide at all. The drag is immense. The only way to keep from going over the bars is to keep your feet well out in front of you and turn off your tails. In fact, in the video @ :11, you can see where I pass the camera and have to momentary correct to keep from going over the bars by crouching to lower my center of mass. It's a game of angles and forces, just like any good skiing.

Great skiers can handle any condition and don't make lame excuses for skiing like they are still in the 70s. Retro fail
