A cool BMMC vid from '09

[2knees]

I love the old school airs in this. Blanton, from the mogul board, shot this and posted it awhile ago but I thought it should get more airtime.

I really have to do that next year. Tiny seeded bumps are easy.

HS you have never competed in the BMMC?

Nope, I never end up skiing enough bumps.

what happened to the VW bumps of Outer limits..those bumps look tiny and easy..and such a short course..

 

[deadheadskier]

Bumps look perfectly fine to me.

I for one don't much care for GIANT VW bumps these and for whatever the reason (perhaps shorter skis?) when they get very large these days they tend to be way troughed out.

those aren't tiny and easy. Can't judge them by that vid

Yeah, it looks so easy. a caveman could do it.

exactly. those are some very tight & deep bumps.

x2! The bumps this past year were not the biggest, but the conditions that day were tricky. There was a showering of freezing rain and fog in the morning. The top kicker had a very difficult landing that excelerated you into the course. Definately not as easy as it looks. These were not forgiving bumps.

yeah Steins was certainly challenging that day. Big bumps are one thing, but when they are 15 feet apart with frozen up crud in between, it gets a bit dicey to say the least.

I used to be an OL addict. but that was 20 years ago. Age, bump quality and knee injuries have me interested in more manageable bump runs these days. I'm more into the fun factor then anything else.

that and I'm a poser who only likes tiny seeded bumps. :lol: someday i hope to be as good as GSS.
