  1. IMMHO well I guess you are coming out of the backside turn and just starting to release the edge...looks as if you could be doing large across the run turns at a good clip...the stance when it is duck or close to duck causes the back to be perpendicular to the fall line...99.99% of all soft booters ride that way...so really your position is dictated by your stance and you do it well sitting on the toilet frowned upon by perhaps some of the HB folks is simply mandated by the softbooters stance. I have seen some of your pictures before and I thought a short video... I think you have a great style and ability to enjoy yourself on any hill or run. I believe if you watch the best softbooter on the planet in slow motion go down the hill that they will at sometime be in the exact position which your picture shows...therefore this is why I would suggest a Video of at least a couple of consecutive turning cycles to allow your style to be fully seen and for whatever reason judged by others here...:)
  2. Keep the Moshun going...
  3. A really impressive total and with so many different areas... Congratulationa are in oder!
  4. impossible to call good or bad as a still pic is not enough information to make a call...you are on the way to somewhere from somewhere and a video that shows a number of cycles would be needed to determine good from bad...and then again one persons good can be another persons bad looks good from here :) but then I am no expert, so I apologize for this response.
  5. did not mean to get off topic... I have a couple on the wall too :) here then is another opinion http://www.k5.com/page.asp?itemid=217
  6. and many believe that the "other" is a cult or not truly Christian...as a species we seem to do all we can to separate ourselves from each other... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Christian_denominations
  7. Reading this thread makes me wonder...:) I would think that the Monoski developed in the 60's and made popular by Mike Doyle would be considered the first Modern Alpine Board which of course is really nothing more than a wide ski so that both feet fit on it... As for first Asymmetrical or Swallow Tail or Pin Tail or Tapered or Rockered or Sidecut or whatever, those would be innovations or advances on the original concept which goes back way before the Snurfer to a time and place long ago and unknown... not trying to be argumentative here ...just wondering out loud :) a quick search on the Monoski can provide some info...

  14. Stoked, 9 to 12 Skarving myself silly on the slush non stops on the Gondola Skarving slows me down and takes me back to the endless hours of sidewalk surfing in Cali on the undulating sidewalks and driveways as a kid...The polished aggregate in front of the bank was the best for setting the edge and drifting the tail with the old metal wheels of course:1luvu: Season Ends for the Season Tomorrow...
  15. Wait! Hold everything it is SNOWING there is a 1/2 " at the Top of Aspen Mt. Going out the door for One More Powder Day
  16. Really the worst overall conditions I have seen here since 1968. The first half of 1976 season was the same, the latter half of the season was good. While the surfin was still fun, Powder was no where to be seen except a few days. :( I am excited for next season though and know it will be here soon enough, have a great summer :)
