  1. He's one of our locals. Word is that everyone here hates him too.
  2. I took it. The focus isn't that great as I guess I was impatient and forced the camera to start its tracking before I got the "okay" or something.... You wear face guards for slalom because most SL racers smack their way through the gates and they have a tendency to smack you back. When Siblet was back East they only required a mouth guard. The first SL race she had here she came across the finish with a nose bleed. After that we rushed to buy the face guard.
  3. 143 points, which is great for her in slalom as that is not her best event.
  4. This was her best slalom ever, too.
  5. Right before descending the headwall.
  6. Which show was this on? Maybe they will re-run this interview.
  7. It's interesting, tho...he's joining the Camelback Ski Team in Moosic, PA, near Scranton??????? Is there a second team now?
  8. This ought to be an interesting experience, given the reviews at: Reviews of skiing at Yabuli
  9. Do they actually have LIFTS?
  10. Siblet today, 3/31
  11. Found a DNF at Seven Springs: Feb 2005 State Comp GS
  12. Maybe it was a NASTAR race out in SS? I have checked the PARA archives and not found him. I may have missed it, so here they are: 2003 PARA archives 2004 PARA archives
  13. He doesn't say if it was last year or this year, but the results for this year are at http://www.paracing.org/mambo/index.php?op...id=68&Itemid=45 I don't know his name, otherwise I'd look up the race for you.
  14. Just turned 20. Has been a derelict for at least the last three years.
  15. I think some people are looking at the NASTAR pics and thinking they are skierboi's when skierboi is referring to a NON-NASTAR race he fell in, not a NASTAR race. Am I right?
  16. Oh, that this were true. We've got a guy who drinks and gets stoned before races and no one has done a thing about it. He is the best skier on the team, too, a real "role model". But last I heard he was giving younger kids beers the night before a race. One of those kids tore an ACL the next day.
  17. Basically if you read all the quotes about his success, everyone thinks he just has the muscle to overcome essentially poor skiing (not compared to MINE, of course). Lots of mistakes, lots of recoveries. The guy is not about precision, that's for sure. Raich, or my hero, Ingemar Stenmark, are really better skiers than he is.
  18. She didn't DNF. I was just afraid she would. As it turns out, she wasn't carrying enough speed for a really long flat section, in spite of the fact that when this picture was taken she was plainly attacking the course. She finished, but not as well as we both hoped. Her tuning was handled by a professional ski tech (our team pays for this at FIS races), so it shouldn't have been a tuning issue. All you need to do is bleed too much speed at the last gate before a flat section and you are sunk.
  19. In the red? Boy, have you changed!
  20. Well, before you fixed it, it said "uphauling".....
  21. The SL today. At least we know she didn't DNF before this pic....
  22. appalling?
  23. How about in the awards section?
  24. Adam, are any of these you? http://www.rossmillerphoto.com
