awesome! cortina is the fucking shit.

for those who dont know, not only does cortina have epic skiing like this most of the time your $30 lift ticket includes a gourmet lunch and ticket to the hot springs for apres! hands down the best value for money of any ski hill ive ever been to

Holy shit, Japan really IS epic. At :25 seconds, you get a face shot, and a Contour magically gets stuck to your helmet.

PS, looked mad fun.
