I just wanted to make it official..I will be doing pond skimming this year at Blue on my fat skis..just an FYI and if I try to back out 2 days before..I give anybody the right to call me a bitchass. Any other AZers doing pond skimming this spring??? If I can make it across the pond at Blue, I might want to hit up some sort of pond-skimming circuit..maybe I can get sponsored by Racewax.com and a fannypack company...you never know..

I'm thinking of giving it a shot at Mt. Snow this Spring.

Maybe I'll dress up as Milli Vanilli and jump off a couch before I make my way down.

One thing you can count on: I'll be drying my ass off with a ShamWow. "Olympic divers...and flatlander wanna be pond skimmers from CT...they use it as a towel...."

You may want to learn a thing or two about pond skimming from Chesley Sullenberger III

You'd need a steel bridge to make it across.

I pond skim every year when at ski at Sunday River and take that lift (Barker?) that goes over the pond. That is close enough for me.
