most of you are too young to recognize these names, but Boyde Easely, Greg Tuffelmire, and Omar Otte are all from MI

For some reason I thought Boyd was Canadian but I'm probably wrong.

Hes from Bloomingdale. He used to hit up Alpine valley all the time. It kinda gives fellow michigander shredders like myself hope that you can make like he did.

Eh it was alright...the jumps were pretty good while some of the boxes were sticky. I think a little more snow could have helped also.

I used to think people said shit like this just to come across as jaded too cool for school senior members...but, I'm fully onboard with this assessment.

I hate how everyone is trying to "make it". I'd say at least 50% of the jerk-offs that are here on a daily basis seriously believe/intend to go "pro".

Actually, you have it backwardsish...My knee surgery was an elective procedure whose intended outcome was to increase laxity in both joints to enable super duper spinny flippyness. So.....yeah, busted.

If you're kidding: hahaha

If you're sincere: I hope you fail miserably in your quest, get disillusioned, and stop skiing because you're not the best at.
