AND NOW FOR SOMETHING COMPLETELY GAPING- ARCH NEMESIS VINCE

So a long time ago I was riding up the chairlift at Hunter and I saw a coworker walking down the hill with his board- not riding..... walking. He instantaneously became my arch nemesis.
His name is Vince.... and he should be scorned.

I bet this guy is called Vince- Killington

SNOW? ARE YOU THERE.... ITS ME, RATFACE

my Sun Valley early/late pass

What have I been up to?
I'm sure you are all dying to know.
(No one cares)
Well, I better write it down; I seem to forget things as soon as they happen.








 
 
 

The Giant at Jay

I've got 14 days on the hill.....
should be more but there are a million stupid excesses, like:
(all these should be read in a super whinny voice)
I live in Brooklyn......
More people need to give me money.......
The thing that I put in my binding that is connected to my leg seems to be broken or something......
I have a job.....
I'm old and fat......
My ass hurts........

Mary and the snow-less bowls- Sun Valley

Anyway-
sorry about that
I've had some days in Sun Valley, Targhee, Killington, and Jay Peak.
The lack of snow at the places I have been privileged to frequent could be devastating to some
but I'm just beginning the season of my life.

Me & Andy- Sun Valley

Sun Valley- Idaho
My mecca. Spent eight days riding with my family
and friends.
Most of the hill was open and the trip was filled with sweet Sun Valley bluebird days.
I missed the bowls terribly. 
We discovered the horrors of doppelgapers.
and had some detonating fun.

Mary and the Grand Teton- Targhee

Targhee- Wyoming
Spent two days here with lil sis Mary and there was pow, cause it's Targhee.
but there was a lot of stuff hiding ready to bite
Yeah, I got eight core shots..... 
it was totally worth it-
Team Awesome was born

bare bunny hill- Killington

Killington- Vermont
Spent two days with the Giant
about half the massive resort was open, no stash or pipe, but they've got some new parks.
Was cool to see Killington doing well after hurricane Irene- they got hit pretty hard.
Day two the famous blue stuff came out- I believe it's called ice?
Just suck it up and go straight

Jay Peak- Vermont (they say it's VT but it's like, really Canada)
Spent four days here with The Giant, Zims, and Yuko.
I only rode two, due to my traitor of a foot.

Jay is where it is at in the east.
And the trees are where it's at, at Jay.
Thank goodness they had some snow.
It didn't get warmer than -5, and that was balmy.
Can't wait to return.

                                                 The west is getting pounded.....

                                                    in the east we wait for ours

AND NOW FOR SOMETHING COMPLETELY GAPING- MARY'S DOPPELGAPER

Something very frighting has been happening on hills across the earth. Doppelgapers have been appearing everywhere. Now a doppelgånger (a paranormal double of a living person, typically representing evil or misfortune) is terrifying enough- but a doppelgaper can ruin your life. People see this Gaper, gaping about the hill and they believe it is you. Your reputation is ruined and basically people start trying to kill you. No one is willing to acknowledge that this is becoming a serious problem so I have taken it upon myself to document this atrocity. 

In this upcoming very serious video I have captured my little sister Mary's Doppelgaper. This Doppelgaper seems to be a jumpsuit pseudo shredder. You know, the kind that pushes every turn? Reminds me of "stupid sexy Flanders" from the Simpsons. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CL4iVQyp9L4)
