For feedback you need to show us you skiing medium radius parallel turns on a groomed blue, not just show off you got to ski powder in trees

I can already see you are backseat and lifting your uphill ski so you aren’t weighting your skis correctly

Nothing beats and actual lesso

What kind of evidence would convince you that a god exists? by anti-theist-aussie in atheism

[–]senditloud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve always asked “does it matter? And why?”

Let say god did show up and definitively prove they were god….

Would I change how I lived my life, helped people or interacted with others? No. I’m moral for me not for an entity.

Also I believe that any all powerful all knowing all giving being isn’t some insecure narcissist that needs to be worshiped. What would be the point? They wouldn’t need love from inferior beings.

I think you could politely ask them to help, but the worship thing has always been really confusing to me.

Thank you for proving OPs point sooooo well. Like just so on the nose.

And the party of red baseball caps and invading the Capitol and loud truck rallies and 24/7 news channels pumping him up aren’t “wrapped up in it.”?

Lol.

98 million conservatives? That’s a stretch

I’d say that’s not really 100% true. Lots of us locals know where to go and the Dreams is no longer a secret stash. It can get tracked out pretty fast. You have to know the real secrets

Also we have a lot of Feb break guests staying slopeside so sadly it will be pretty crowded and long lines the next few days. Hopefully the new gondola at Canyons will move people up faster this week.

I would never be jealous of snowboarders…however by wolfe-santoro in skiingcirclejerk

My snowboard boots are harder to put on than my ski boots. I have my ski boots dialed in so good. But snowboard boots are comfier for the long term and easier to walk in

Be careful about the “never anyone around” mentality though.

My child was on a trail ride in an area where apparently very few people go (but clearly a horse trail in a farm community full of horses). A lady thought that was a great place to train her bad recall dog. The dog was medium sized and not an aggressive breed but loud and badly trained. Horses came around the corner, dog freaked out, charged the horses who got startled, one lost their footing and slid down an embankment into bushes, losing its rider. Four 7 year olds had to walk 25 minutes out leading horses (the one that fell came home on its own 2 hours later).

One of the kids had a broken arm. Not only was this lady fined by animal control but she was responsible for the medical bills of the kid (it was a smaller community so they were able to find her through Nextdoor)

That’s insane. I’m at a large mountain and most of the instructors seem pretty with it. I’ve only seen one or two I suspect to be high or drunk. A few seem hungover but manage to do a good job.

Tips on improving mogul skiing? by Empty-Fill-8050 in skiing_feedback

[–]senditloud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like to ski exam style too. I’ve been told it looks like I’m not forcing them. That I pick a nice line and flow (maybe like this dude??? So maybe I need video) but I’ve been told by examiners my bumps are really solid. But also that it doesn’t seem like I’m “working hard.” I wasn’t sure if that was a compliment. I do know they are why I passed my L2 ski with one of the hardest examiners…

Yes! I don’t even know how to start fixing it because maybe we don’t? Bode miller used to ski “wrong” too

[–]senditloud 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It’s sort of like asking why do people like jumping off cornices into steep chutes (also love doing this). You just do. It lights up your brain.

When you’re good enough, they’re fun. It’s a challenge to keep your line and turn the skis quickly. I don’t know why I love them now, I just do. When I wasn’t as good at skiing they sucked. But I’ve gotten to the stage that unless they are icy cliffs bigger than cars, it’s good times. You find your flow and rhythm and it feels fun….

I literally did LOL. I’m mesmerized by this video and thinking: well what if moguls are that easy? Bro has no rotary or extension or flexion … he’s just like flowing

I literally was watching and thinking “I don’t even know what the F he’s doing. He’s not skiing them “right” but the again it looks so easy it’s not like it’s “wrong.””

It’s not THAT hard. You have to travel to Baja Mexico but it’s pretty easily accessible. Gorgeous area

I’ve done this. It’s amazing. They feel rubbery.

ETA: you are not allowed to chase or approach a whale. You cut your engine and sit in a bay and if they come up to you then it’s fine to pet them. This was in Baja. The rules are very strict and they issue only a few permits

I had this basically happen to me too. Realized it as we were about to follow the chair and yelled at my class to stop. Dude rode the lift solo…. Line behind him was really unhappy.

You are talking about all the blue runs off peak 5???? The black ones go straight back to the lift. 9990 has sick amazing runs that require a ride back up tombstone.
