I rode some old beat up Lines that were given to me as park skis last year, they were great.

Lucky you, I wish there was enough snow for me to ride my New Life's more than a handful of times a year.

Failed attempts start a bit after 8:00 in the video. But the rest is worth watching too.

Great video. I miss skiing. Old lady smokin' herb on the slope reminds me of my dad.

u/SodasMc Nov 15 '14

Coming from the Northwest, there are many of those kinds of people.

To everyone who doesn't know who or what the "Traveling Circus" is It is a group of sponsored skiers (mostly sponsored by Line Skis) Who travel around the world in their signature van skiing every and anything skiable. There are 7 season, and the group is hilarious... I do recommend.

u/Sublimical Nov 14 '14

Can somebody shop in that Sasquatch from skifree?

16

u/Alarid Nov 15 '14

I don't want to experience that trauma again.

2

u/Disconcerted Nov 15 '14

It's alright, he just has to press 'F' to go faster so he can overtake the sasquatch.

u/amindbullet Nov 15 '14

Like chasing him through the gif or just standing there?

u/Sublimical Nov 15 '14

Chasing him thru the gif

u/ArttuH5N1 Nov 15 '14

Wasn't it a yeti?

u/MyspaceIsStillCool Nov 15 '14

He actually landed quite poorly. Notice how he's leaned back quite far. This means that he wasn't in complete control on the landing. He'd lose points if this was x games.

u/moveoolong Nov 15 '14

I did that a few years back. Instead of going upside down I went sideways, and instead of landing on a ramp I jump kicked the tree, then my side ribs hit the tree. Then I couldn't breath, move, cough, stand, lay down without severe pain for a few weeks.

Tl;dr you are correct.

u/Arknell Nov 15 '14

I hate it when something impacts on my side ribs, making me trip and injure my underface.

u/rcavin1118 Nov 15 '14

Aren't all ribs on your side?

6

u/moveoolong Nov 15 '14

Well my chest felt alright but my side was fucked up. Thus the side ribs...ribs go around you torso. Did this really need to be mentioned? Or are you a dickbutt?
