The MES 2011

Recommended Posts

Fun day yesterday! Thanks Trent and good riding with everyone! My whole body was sore today, including a blistered shin, even after the duct tape.

Wondering if Joe D. completed the Quadrifinia attempt last eve?

Futahguro, I'm also horrible names, is yours Erik? :freak3: Got the crash, as did Scott (nice work + tunes!!) Shoot me your email.

The helmet footage turned out fair, pretty shaky and for some reason, really messed up sound for the first half of the day. I did one night time hand held run that was a bit better but it still makes me dizzy. I'll try and get them uploaded to youtube this weekend.

joe managed to get 4 lift tickets yesterday! he texted me that he was on the chair at welch by 6, leaving buck at 8:15 (6 runs), and leaving hyland at 9:05 (1 run). what i want to know is... how bad did hyland seem after everything else? :barf:

karl got the silver medal with 3 lift tickets! he hit hyland for g-team practice, then buck (where i'm sure he a joe crossed paths).

i'm just happy i was the first carver on the chair and had first tracks yesterday. it's the small things that make me happy. ;)

i'm not sore... but my stomach hurts! y'all need to eat more treats next year! i had one full container this morning.... let's just say there's only 4 left, and i haven't been sharing. oof. not feeling so hot right now. candy and playing in snow are my two addictions i'm unable to control. :freak3:

i too have video. had 45 minutes worth when i uploaded it, which seemed like a lot more than i thought. oh wait, there's a 15 minute black clip... left it recording, put on the lens cap, then put it in my pocket. brilliant! i'll try to get it edited and online soon. but most of the capture wasn't too hot due to the flat light. lots of focusing problems by the camera.

@futahaguro - yeah, i tend to do the kill-you-face for the camera. otherwise you'd see my "oh, ****!" face or some other goofy look. i think i may have you eating it behind tom too.

Yes, it is Eric. I didn't watch Scott's video because they are blocked here at work so I din't know it was on there. I just watched it and boy, I need some work! I thought I was getting my edges in but I just kept chattering out, that is what happened there. I think I need to get lower with more angulation. A lot of good lookin' carves on that vid!

Eric, that captions are awesome!

I just watched it and I am pretty happy with it. I have watched too many that get a little boring so I tried to put it together with that in mind. I can't wait to do it some more, hopefully with better lighting and a pole mount. I can think of some cool shots to get with a pole mount. I also think I should get some skis or a splitboard or something for filming:)

Glad you found them amusing.

I also want to thank Trent for his dedication to all of us. THANKS T!!

I also want to give everyone their due props. The conditions were not ideal, as usual, but everyone really stepped to the plate and rode hard. It seems like our riding as a whole improves every year, which is great to see. With limited vertical you have to make the best of what you have, and we seem to do that very well.

I know I didn't get a chance to meet everyone or even talk to some I know, but when it's time to ride it's time to ride. Right? Maybe next time out.

Jessie deserves her own special award for hanging with the boys, and holding her own. Big Props.

And lastly a shout out to Joes mittens. We definately know they made it to Welch, Buck, and Hyland.

here's the first half of the video i took. my camcorder was having lots of focusing problems i think due to the light that day.

bionicman gets the speaking credit at 2:08. :biggthump

the remainder of what i got.

thanks again to everyone who came out to play! sorry if i didn't get anyone on camera. those that came late, i missed. sorry.

looks like one of my rap songs flagged something on youtube and they disabled the audio. i'll see if i can find some other songs you've never heard. ;)

see below for video, with music...

ok, finally figured out a few songs that wouldn't get shut off. recycled one song. someone's got to tell me a better way of figuring out what's allowed, and what isn't.
