AtomicSkier Posted February 7, 2012 Report Posted February 7, 2012 a not so good run, an ok run, but the beer is always good! snow and course were great i thought condsidering the recent temps the snow on razors is so solid right now, a few 50 degree days wasn't going to loosen it up. good stuff last night. wish I could ski that last headwall though.

peski28 Posted February 8, 2012 Report Posted February 8, 2012 Leave alex out of this, he's just fine. I'm on the schleppers which is that b team and they will do just fine. Pissed i crushed my ankle in the park earlier that day but there was no putting it back into plastic. Oh well next week. Quote
AtomicSkier Posted February 14, 2012 Report Posted February 14, 2012 Team PASR killed it tonight. We were clear of 3rd place by 32 seconds! A second place finish for PASR tonight puts is solidly in 3rd place, with a chance at second overall. Everyone skied pretty well tonight. Johnny had two solid times, as did Nastar Glenn. The conditions deteriorated on the second run due to the sugar which had an effect on Mike's time. I got hung up in the sugar, almost skied out on the first run, hence my slow time. Team did great...we'll be gunning for second next week. I *did* manage to lose to Bobert540 tonight by one spot, mostly because of my first run. I'll be gunning for him next week Quote
mbike-ski Posted February 14, 2012 Author Report Posted February 14, 2012 another fun night! the set was fast and furious, after a good first run i was hoping to break the 30" barrier but the snow conditions deemed otherwise. after a long wait in the start for a the third gate that just wouldn't stay in the snow i just didn't attack the course hard enough and got right into a defensive run just trying to hold on. and hold on it was, lot of 2nd run dnf's for sure. woulda loved last nights set with last weeks snow!

It's such a stoke stomper being in the gate and having to hold, staring down at the course in front of you. I always stand about 3 feet back and don't step in until he says racer ready. That way...no time to think, ski up to the gate, goggles down...go. Most impressive last night was the guy that hopped out of the gate and heard STOP as he was already out of the gate, and stopped before the first gate. It was like watching Tiger stop mid downswing.

AtomicSkier Posted February 21, 2012 Report Posted February 21, 2012 Well...congratulations to Team PASR! We finished 3rd overall with a terrible first night. Tonight was a bit weird. Because of conditions on the 2nd head wall, they had to run the course from Razorback to the top of the second head wall...aka a super short course. There was so much sugar everywhere, it was almost dangerous. We were the 2nd team to go on each run, so we had some of the best conditions of the night, and it was still bad. I got a little hung up int he sugar each time, and my times suffered. Problem with such a short course is everyone gets bunched up and it's easy for guys who can't handle the speed of the head wall to shine on a night like tonight. I was one of the few that was disappointed there wasn't a longer course tonight, but oh well, had to deal with it. I was 7th fastest tonight. Another great showing from team PASR though. We had 6 out of 7 guys finish two runs, and secured 3rd place no sweat. Johnny, Mike and Glenn laid down some consistent times tonight, with a pretty good run out of JStyle run one. It was good enough for a 4th place team finish tonight. As for prizes, we got a $25 buckmans gift card, 50% buckmans full tune, and a neff hat for 3rd place. Lots of door prizes were given out, and I was the only one on the team not to get one. Johnny got an additional $25 in buckman's gift cards. 1 Quote
toast21602 Posted February 21, 2012 Report Posted February 21, 2012 Awesome job. Maybe next year I won't have class. 18m Pow skis.could work, right? Quote
mbike-ski Posted February 21, 2012 Author Report Posted February 21, 2012 great way to wrap up a fun series, and the pulled pork sammies were pretty good too thanks to everybody for coming out unfortunate about the snow conditions the last few weeks, mother nature's been qite a bitch, but the trail and courses have been a hoot! 1 Quote
AtomicSkier Posted February 21, 2012 Report Posted February 21, 2012 Congrats...how do you split a $25 gift card six ways or did u each get one!!!! Amazing that the racing just started for Jeff and Aspen420 three weeks ago.....you guys all did super...was cool seeing the posted times!!!! each got one. duh. get the peanut butter out of your brain. 1 Quote
snorovr Posted February 21, 2012 Report Posted February 21, 2012 Darn if I knew they were gonna shorten the course I woulda stuck around and filled in for Travis... One look at lower Razors and I had no interest, that was a great call on their part to shorten the course. Quote
Bobert540 Posted February 22, 2012 Report Posted February 22, 2012 Congrats to team PASR, Way to finish strong! Quote
Johnny Style Posted February 24, 2012 Report Posted February 24, 2012 (edited) Here is a facebook page called the Beer League World Cup. It tracks all four Beer Leagues in the Pocono area and ranks everybody using World Cup scoring. I think this is a cool concept. I didn't even know that Camelback was running one. If I didn't live so far South I would love to participate in more of these. https://www.facebook...rLeagueWorldCup Edited February 24, 2012 by Johnny Style 2 Quote
