CONTESTS I WISH I COULD WIN AND SNOW DEALS II


 el squat off the top at Breck spring 2012

BRECKENRIDGE
Book your CO trip  now and save 30%. If you book more than 3 days in Breck then the other lift tickets are good at the Beav, Vail, A-Basin, and Keystone- which is sweetness. This sale is until 7/31/13.

I SKI NY
The SANY Gold Pass is $999 until 8/1/13. This pass is for almost every resort in New York. It's good at 34 mountains- even Whiteface. Also this pass is transferable. They don't care if your friends, you mom or your co-workers use the same card. So round up a bunch of your enemies that just talk about riding and never go and buy this together!

VERMONT VACATION
I don't really understand this contest. But this is what I think it is- win a trip to a cheese farm or dairy and stay with the strange family that owns the cheese-farm-dairy-thing and eat all their cheese.
I'm so in.

FUNNY THINGS IDIOTS PUT ON THEIR CARS


This post was inspired by myself and my Gaping post this week.
 

What is the deal with this guy. I saw this license plate in Jay Peak's parking lot and I couldn't stop laughing. It also made me scream "ENRAGED" in my best death metal voice all day. Which no one around me liked.  


Got this pic. in the city which is not quite where you want to go for some prime hick racing time.
 Or is it?
Also goggled Hick Racing and it is a real thing. I like Larry "The Hippo" Hicks. Hippos and race cars go hand in hand.


Got this one in a liquor store parking lot in Salt Lake.
GIT-R-DONE
Pretty sure this person is king of mullets and was buying Natty Ice.

JUST A LITTLE BIT- SPRING SNOW STORIES


I love riding on dirt and rocks. It is the coolest.
Perhaps this is why I'm always trashing my board.
It's too fun to snow patch hop in the spring, when the snows all soft.
Can't get enough.


 It definitely runs in the family. Here is my pops and lil bro getting those last turns down Lil Easter.
April 2013 Sun Valley- ID


 Here's El Squat. We had to hop a fairly large gap to get this sweet patch.
South Slopes under the Christmas lift. Sun Valley- ID


You may have seen this before. Here's me- threading that needle while Zims, Yuko, and lil bro waiting for their turn. Photo cred. El Squat

AND NOW FOR SOMETHING COMPLETELY GAPING- GAPER IDEAS


Gapers think differently than non-Gapers. 
They have Gaper thoughts- "I love being in the way! It might be my most favorite thing ever." 
And they have Gaper ideas- these ideas are hilarious- and they usually don't work. Luckily for you, I happen to have taken some photos of these Gaper ideas.


 "This will keep my kid from skiing away. A hula hoop. This is going to be great"
Seconds later the child falls
Gaper falls on hula hoop and child.
Gaper breaks hula hoop.
Pieces of plastic stab the child.
Jay Peak- VT


 "Fashion Week is all about fur and leather."
Trap Gaper not quite getting it.
Lincoln Center- NYC


"SEXY STUD FOR LIF"
Yeah! Over confident and delusional minivan Gaper.

AND NOW FOR SOMETHING COMPLETELY GAPING- GAPING UNDERTONES


Sometimes you see an individual and you think, "Wow- that guy just goes to his own drum. Doesn't care what others think. He's definitely doing his own thing."
And sometimes you look at someone and think, "What a stupid Gaper."

you know he takes GHB for fun


like this bunch of Gapers showing their skills in Snowbird


like this old Gaper who believes that I should see him in his underwear in the morning
