Ridiculous

first off, kids who say droppin cliffs is easy dont know what they're talking about. its one thing to huck, another thing to stomp. its quite technically challenging to stomp cliffs, anyone who says differently hasn't dropped anything over 20. also, the angle of the pic for this cliff is misleading. he had to take the cliff along the fall line to get 230, if he would've gone straight off, which woulda been across the fall line, it would've been around 150-200 not sure. this was a 230 air, not cliff; big difference. i ride at snowbird, and have been lookin at that cliff for the last week and a half or so, so please dont argue with me, i've seen the drop from many different angles. pierres drop was a 255 CLIFF, not air; this guys (Leo Brayman)supposed 290 cliff is actually the air including horizontal trajectory.

also, leo (hucker) actually back slapped some rocks and broke his collar bone in the process. he was wearing a metal back plate, ofcourse, and should've broken more than what he did. and yes, eventually someone will die from trying to break the record, and will make everyone else realize the insanity of this matter. did i mention how much cooler it to do a gnarly line, and STOMP a sizable cliff rather than ski some flats to a retarded drop and land on your back/head and not be able to ski away from it on your own? props on the balls i guess...

again, the angle of the pic is misleading, this was total air trajectory including horizontal distance. theres an 80 footer inbounds at snowbird right next to the "230 footer" i've been looking at to drop next year, and its half, if not a teeny bit more, the size of the cliff at the angle in which leo brayman went.

did i mention props on the balls? all im sayin is the pic is a little misleading, i personally dont believe the cliff itself to actually be 230. disagree with me if you want. also, i could be a hell of alot more rude... :-)
