Sundown Bump or Bust III - 3/22/09

[severine]

180 - Sorry to hear about Robin's torn ACL. She's a phenomenal skier: your entire family are! Glad to hear she's in good spirits and a plan is in place to fix her up. Please do keep us posted!

 

[SkiDork]

wow, that sux. Our thoughts are fur her speedy recovery Alan

 

[MogulQueen]

Cheers to Robin and a speedy recovery. Tell her I look forward to hangin' on the sun deck at Killington with her and Ellen on April 17th!

Once again you're being an arrogant prick. I know many old timers that know every inch of Killington so you are not the only one privy to the information. You can delude yourself but the fact is that there is no part of Killington that is not known by these old timers. Some of them helped clean out some of those lines.

Still doesn't mean you know where they are or have skied them.

Riddle me this....why are there places, entire glades, I ski that are still untracked days after a storm?

 

[Highway Star]

You know that I don't ski bumps at all, but if Blue hosted an event like this, I'd be there with at least two cases of beer in my car for all (but highwaystar) to enjoy. I'd be lined up right on Main Street with my camera and having a blast.

I'd venture to say that all the dudes and dudettes at Sundown had much more fun than HS did in his dusting of snow at K. Everyone who made Sundown's event a huge success is welcome down at Blue anytime!

Actually, I had a pretty good time on Sunday, glad to know you care.

 

[Highway Star]

Can I borrow your book on how to suck at life? You truly have it mastered.

You didn't show because you would've gotten your ass handed to you by not only the Killington skiers, but by plenty of the Sundown skiers yourself. You know it, hence why you've never shown your face to any 'ski off' or other event. All you do is sit on the internet and boast about how great you are and how others suck.

Seriously, get some help man.

I really shouldn't say anything more because doing so perhaps perpetuates the problem, but for better or worse, I often don't hold my tongue when I should.

Of all the powder days, great bump days etc that I've missed this season for various reasons that life has thrown at me, this past Sunday at Sundown is the one day I was most bummed about missing this season. Not because I even wanted to compete in the competition, but because of how excited everyone was for this day and all the great people that showed up to compete and have a good time.

Minus one loser, this thread exemplifies exactly what the day was all about; great people, great fun, captured in great pictures, video and commentary. It's exactly why I ski.

Typically, I find great humor in HighwayStar's ridiculous arrogance and to quote 2knees, douchebaggery. I'm a sucker for a good train wreck thread.

Wish it didn't happen in this one though. Honestly, his behavior is about as embarrassing as a father getting in a fist fight with the umpire at a Little League game. In life, everyone acts like an asshole from time to time, but sometimes the timing of such behavior is simply downright despicable. My own mother would slap me silly for being such a douche bag.

The only thing I can possibly imagine is that he is a complete Sociopath who has zero control over his actions. If that's the case, I feel sorry for him and hope he gets the help he needs to be able to exist in society both on and offline in an acceptable manner.

I'll leave at that. Other than that.....clearly a wonderful day was had by all yesterday and it's been great to read about; can't wait to get out on the slopes with some of you great people this upcoming Saturday at Sugarbush. :grin:

Snnnifffffffff................Whhaaaaaaaaaaaaaa................Whhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!! I'm so sad I couldn't make it to Sundown to hang out with the a-zone patrol................wwwwwwwwwwhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaa!!! How dare Highway Star make light of all the Killington skiers stealing the show!!!

Or something like that.

Dude......I could care less about Sundown or this comp. Wasn't even aware it was going on. 99%+ of the northeast skiing population has better things to do. The world does not revolve around Ski Sundown.

I just think it's funny that all the "heavy talent" was from my home mountain. Too bad you weren't there to learn from them. From what I hear they went to sugarbush last weeknd for a bump comp too.

If you want to learn something about tree skiing, come to Killington sometime....but I doubt you could hang for more than 30 seconds....

 

[severine]

Dude, are you retarded?

Do you seriously need to continue crapping up this thread with your arrogant nonsense?

Have a little respect. I know it's a stretch, but c'mon now. One of the talented competitors was injured and you have to continue your Kindergarten tantrum? Enough. Who really gives a shit what you think of yourself other than you? Give it a rest. If you're not interested or we're just too gaperish for you, move on. All you're accomplishing is proving what a douche you are.

I'm sorry, but I'm not the one issuing immature attacks and insults here. Please get ahold of yourself.

I was done with this thread 3 pages ago.....but nooo.....

Severine...well said. :beer:

I will continue to enjoy my gaperish ways and have fun at every opportunity:blink::lol:

There's plenty of other places to engage HS, let's just ignore him here, eh? Keep it clean.

HS, if you want to start something, start a new thread.

 

[snoseek]

It looks like you guys had a great time. Sundown looks like a cool local hill run damn near perfect.

 

[bvibert]

A short video that I threw together tonight. I'm planning on putting together one more like what I did for the last comp too, with the sound of the crowd (Randi) and announcer (Jarrod) instead of music.

 

[jarrodski]

Hey, where's the video on the chicks that ripped at the Sundown Mogul Comp?

we'll have our sundown edit of the whole weekend done this week... our dork skills are not on par with Greg and Gary's and it takes us a while...

stay tuned

 

[SkiDork]

I have a bunch of runs, all from the bottom. I've got to figure out how to trim it down a little or else it will be too long. I also have to id some of the competitors. What I might end up doing is putting it all up and then asking some of you guys to help me with who's who. Hopefully I'll have some time tonight to get started.

do they suck?

 

[SkiDork]

why do we have to argue about who knows what stash?

Its all good. Whether you're skiing/riding at K or Vail or Val'Disere (sp?) or in my backyard on a 10 foot hill. Its all good. Lets just have some fun and talk about the good times (like Sunday)

HS - you shoulda been there. It was a blast and I know eveyone would have loved to hang with ya. You're a good dude, I've met you a few times. As Radio Ron would say, Lets do it up!!!

Nice.. looking forward to the full length feature film!

Robin has indeed torn her ACL. We'll be making plans for her surgery in the next week. She is in good spirits and she will be back (her words). I will post updates as they happen.

+++vibes+++
