now scottxskix you need to learn to keep your emotions off the slopes, if you learn to do that you wont cut your wrists as much. All those times you fought with your partner dont follow you onto the slope so keep the snow clean and those thoughts happy like rainbows and you will be sure to be a sucess!

why dont you sharpen your edges and go try some massive romping mute grabs and slam your wrists. after that go swimming for a little while...

dude forget being sponsored if you havent havent figured out the basic concept of wearing gloves. Even without gloves, you shouldnt slide your hands down your edges...
