btw, also saw your whitewater video... man, I gotta get on whitewater, looks like a blast!!

and what's up with the subliminal ski shots?

Definitely some rippin' riding there. Tough to capture speed and pitch in a vid and you captured both.

The video is done on a point a shoot camers so it's not great, but catches the essence of what's going on. White water paddling is so fun. So much like powder the line is blurred sometimes.

That's the "Huck By" on Charlie's Trail in Stowe. The original trail stays left and goes thru a stone wall, with a real low speed right hander. In the first clip you can see Wayno goes straight and I peel off right. The first jump is a small gap over a log that is built so you can get your speed right for the step down. If you clear the log and get a good pump off the landing you make the step down perfectly. Sets you up to flow thru the next section with speed. You can pass at least 2 people by hitting the air, then put a good gap on them by hitting the next section with momentum. Not big air, but a tech runout and butttery smooth. Some great riding in stowe.
ps
make sure you watch the "high Quality" version....much better quality.
