im sure the one you are talking about is pretty big, but rorys, its like an 85 foot step down and it is pretty much as stomped as you can get

I dont think you guys get it. If you have ever hit a triple ramp, taking off switch from near the top to a switch back is straight ludacris.

Old MSP > New MSP

Tanners example wouldnt be my choice, but check out Jon's part in Propaganda or Happy Dayz. Simply amazing, even by todays standards. I love older ski movies...

in push rorys switch back was insane but also when mike douglas does the triple back that was impressive.
