Toast has less patience for lines then I do....he's the only person that I know that leaves before the mountain even opens -

You're always out of control Yesterday a ski patroller was keeping up with me on Paradise until I blew them away, and again yesterday, there was a ski patroller ahead of me on Paradise, and it took me straight running to pass him. Some of them red coats can really fly, lol...not mark miller. -
doug and i both ollied over it, but they were pissed. oh well.
-
haha, you figured it out...i forgot to change your password for you Line skipper was there was his wifey, so he didnt have a chance to skip the line when they scanned at 7:23
-
hehe, you're dam right he remembered us. How could you not? We were the biggest fckin pricks to him, and even though he's a retard, I gues he's not bad, if he didn't put us in the database, but that was all my doing when I let him know what was up. He's a gaper though, he had his Baklava on, on his yellow K2s. It was kinda funny that i said to doug (hoping theyd here) "let's do a fast run down paradise", and coincidentally, it was Mark Miller on the lift Like doug said, it's hard to go 10 miuntes without laughing. "Hey Leeroy, I'll meet you in the lodge in 10 minutes"

-
I take the cake for 7:09, and on the snow, after being scanned, at 7:23.
-
You weren't even there at 7:20...at least not down below... Zonked, I wasnt on the road until 10:30....
-

-
You guys don't count, I don't think you were actually there. you just made up a story so I wouldn't get on you two about not going again

Skidude has a race at blue that day.

Everyday is an unofficial PASR day at Blue. Today it was Me, Doug, Mbike Mike, Concussion Ted, Toast, FreeridinTre, and we saw NASTY-R Glenn under the lift

I've got races at JF that weekend...so that's a no show for me.

Phillycore, just to let you know ski surface area isn't a substitue for length. The reason you have long skis is for more EDGE surface area. The more edge you have touching the ground, especially with a guy your sized, the better. You need something up around 180cm. They'll feel long for the first run, but now I think my 183's are short
-
No, I think I'm going to sleep in, goto the Booter Mtn Drive in, eat a late breakfast (around 11am) and then maybe do some steezy laps at 8 runs/hour off the 6pack around noon. There should be some powder left over.

I pulled into the lot at 7:10, booted up, and was scanned in and waiting for Doug by the time he was coming down the mountain, so I waited about 2 minutes for him,and we were on our way at 7:25. Razors was sweeet with a fresh coating of blown snow making it oh so sweet. We got 6 runs on Razors before the race team jib honks closed it. Challange (Shall-onge) was freakin sweet. After our second run mbike-ski mike joined in until 9:30. We eventually rode the lift with concussion Ted turned skipatroller Ted, and he had a lot to say as usual. Snow was perfect everywhere. Not a death cookie in sight, and everyone was just soooo smooth and PERFECT. By 8:32 we had done 8 runs, and by 9:35 we had done 14. Those lifts really boot you up there. Around 9:30 they opened Razors back up, and the "CLOSED" tape was on the ground and they were rolling it up. There was a line to the left of people waiting, so I just ollied over the tape and someone yelled "HEY!" and Doug did it to and one of the race guys said "HEY JACKASS!" They're not practicing smartstyle, and should be fired for saying that to a paying customer. So, things were going along great, we ended up doing some laps off the quad. Once Mbikemike left, it was just Doug and I, and two patrollers were to our left in the quad line. So we got on the lift with them. Here is a little dialog as we were on the lift: Jeff: "Hey Doug, we should do a bomb run down Paradise" Doug: "haha" Doug: (turns to patrollers) "So how are you guys doing today" Patroller: "Great, the snow is great too, they put alot of money into snowmaking here" Jeff: "They should put more money into grooming" Patroller: (giving me an idiotic look) "What?" Jeff: "Grooming sucks here" Patroller: "How so?" Jeff: "Um, up until today there were death cookies everywhere" Patroller: "Its a balance between good snow and putting it down fast" Jeff: "Have you ever been to Jack Frost? They know how to do it there" At this point I'm like the who the hell IS this guy, he's a freakin retard Doug: "So do you guys know Ted? He's a new patroller" Patroller: "Nope" Doug: "How about Seth Rubino?" Jeff: "Yea, the idiot that goes down the steps and gets wrecked" silence... Doug: "We're also good friends with Mark Miller" Patroller: "I'm Mark Miller" I'm DYING at this point, laughing so hard Patroller (MM): "You were the guys I wrote up last year" Doug: "Yup" I still can't help laughing Doug: "You're famous on our website" Jeff: "Yea, the imfamous Mark Miller" Doug: "Yea, 1100 people know who you are" Mark: "Is that so?" Jeff: "Yup, everyone knows who you are" I'm giggling like a school girl at this point, it was soo funny Mark: (looking at me) "You're the one that knows Scott right?" Jeff: "Yupp" He went on to tell us about a story about him and fellow ski patroller that I know, Scott in Aspen Doug: "We're not in the database yet this year" Mark: "Well, since you brought up Scott's name last year, he's a good guy and a good friend of mine, so I never put you in the database" At this point I was sort of pissed. I thought I was a badassmofo for being in the database. Jeff: "Let's do a really fast fun down Paradise" We were skiing on paradise when we got caught by Mark Miller last year. We got off the lift, and I turn to Doug and we're both dying and he says "Did that just happen? That was surreal" I laughed the whole way down the trail and almost ate shit cause I was laughing. We were in awe for the rest of the day (two more runs) that that had just happened. What was the chance that Mark Miller would ride the lift with us, let alone us bring up his name. Anyway, we skied two more runs for 18 in total for 19,156 vertical feet. It was just an amazing day, between the conditions, and the mark miller sighting. To sum up the day in one word... EPIC

The best thing for skiing around here are race skis. They've got the stiffness and the stability. Doug's next pair of skis is going to be a real race ski, so he doesn't have anymore flex/instability issues. I'm 6', 200lbs and I'm on 183cm's, and honestly, longer would be nicer for even more stability, but even at 183cm, they freakin RIP and are sooo smooth.

fckin sweet dude!
