Dude, sundown = fail.

All right. That's taking things too far. As leader of the CLITS, we officially challenge you to a ski-off at the beloved Sundown. I'll cover your lift ticket and I'm sure 2knees would put you up for the night. Travel expenses are your responsibility. Man up Highway Gnar.

Oh snap....it's ON.

Name the day. Has to be a weekend or holiday. Over Chistmas holiday week is good. I will come down for the day.

BRING IT ON!!!!!!


That's not a ski-off, that's a bump competition.....learn the difference.

Try again.

This is not K-zone. So one of the Sundown bump comps is my proposition for an AZ ski-off. It will be independently judged so it's a fair measure of skill. Surly, you're not intimidated by a little flat hill like Sundown, are you? I wouldn't imagine so considering you felt compelled to crack on the place on K-zone already. I was obviously joking about 2knees putting you up for the night, but I meant it when I said I'd cover your lift ticket.

Come on Highway Gnar, this is your chance to shine, and finally validate all the trash talking you've done on various sites for years. You will be able to school a whole bunch of AZers all at one time. This could be the shining moment in your skiing career so don't let the opportunity slip away. I would recommend waiting for the March comp on Gunbarrel because I'm sure Temptor would be too easy for you. Plus that will give all of us some more time to practice. God knows we're going to need it. The spring comp should also have plenty of video coverage so we will then all have footage of the phenom that is Highway Gnar to ogle over for years to come. Perhaps we can learn some things by watching your technique. At least you'd show us a level of skiing proficiency to aspire to.

Seriously, even if you just finish in the top 50% of the the AZers that compete, I'll give you props. It's just a friendly little competition. For real.

What say you?

Sorry Greg. You need to know what you are challenging people to. A "SKI-OFF" is a ski-off, doesn't matter if it's in CT or VT or K-zone or TGR or A-zone. The definition and the rules are the same and have been in place for quite some time now.

A mogul comp is not a ski-off, and if I wanted to do a mogul comp, I could do the BMMC.

You challenged me to a ski-off, not a bump comp. I'm still game, but I guess you're backing out.

Did you define "ski-off"? How do you judge that thing? It seems a little vague to me. I also don't like the whole injury component so I guess I am backing out then. You win.

So...let me officially challenge you to compete in one of the Sundown bump comps against us. What do you say?

Again, right here:

http://forums.alpinezone.com/44518-oh-snap-its-3.html#post363546

It's been defined and posted multiple times on K-zone, plus epicski and TGR. If you are not aware by now.....

Winner is determined by:

"The opponents will switch back and forth until someone's overall superiority is determined,"

Obiviously, if you are injured and cannot continue, you lose.

I think that's pretty clear.

(no, I am not coming down for a sundown mogul comp)

Bummer. Why not? Do you suck at bumps?

Do you still offer official Highway Gnar clinics? Would you give us lowly skiers one at little Sundown? It would be a true honor to host you. Again, lift ticket is on me. For real.

Because that would be lame.

I took another look at the rules. Sounds fun so I'm down. What day Christmas week?

Looks like we can do groups. Anyone else in?

I will need to consult with my persoanl secretary and see when I am available. If anything, it would be Friday after christmas. But if it's good at Killington, there's no way I'm skiing Sundown.

It all depends on the weather this week. Will let you know in a few days.

Upon further consideration, I have no interest in skiing "Rundown"....

No, I don't want to bother driving to CT to go skiing. Heck, I know people local to "Rundown" who won't even ski there and drive to Killington instaid.

If anyone wants a ski off at Killington, that could be arranged.

You=Fail.

Over and over and over and over and over again.

2knees: thanks for the correction. Really drives home the point even better when you consider that fact.

Severine: + 1,000,000,000,000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HS: Dude, who f^&king cares if you can ski? Big deal. Man, if you were really interested in being a part of this place, you'd get the fact that you don't have to challenge people to "ski-offs." All you have to do is find your crowd, have a beer, chill, and enjoy the vibe. You just can't seem to do that.

You bit^&ed about KZoners, but honestly, they are a good bunch. In May 2007 we watched as you walked right by this crew on closing day without even saying hello. This was my first time meeting many of these folks and they welcomed me...we shared beers and a great BBQ. I didn't give them any BS and they didn't give me any BS. Just chilled.

If you can't do that, then stop wasting your time here because NOBODY will come ski with you from here because YOU aren't worth the time. I will give you the benefit of the doubt for now though...one last time....

No, they aren't.

I don't want to ski with people from here. I want to have a ski-off against them. BIG difference.

Well there you have it. Glad we are all clear on that.

My advice is that you stop wasting your time here and do something more constructive. Last post for me in response to your stuff.
