This guy is awesome...

[vanzuuk1]

I do not know who is riding (flying) in this, or who took the photo, but its amazing. He is probably doing a pretty good sized drop but the casual look back just makes the whole photo cool.

[CraigMorrison]

cool pic!

[Damn True]

Pretty old pic I'd guess. He's on an Intense M-1, Mavic no longer makes those rims, and TLD hasn't made that helmet in about 2 years.

But it is very cool. I think it might be Matt Hunter before he went to work for Specialized.

[Smock67]

Wow thats an awesome picture. your right the look back just a a certain something to the whole aspect.

Maybe he's flying because he was looking back!?

[paul67]

Yea cause it looks like he should be turning left.

[vanzuuk1]

Ken,thats funny...

Maybe hes turning to his buddies and saying "wow , with these new goggles I can hardly see where i am going...."


True, I forget you are a DH guy...you know stuff.

[WS6]

I was hoping True would say oh that was me back when...

That is an awesome picture.

[Damn True]

Nah, I was never a big drop / jump guy. More of a racer.

Somewhere on youtube is a segment from a DH video with me crashing hard at the NORBA nats @ Mt. Snow VT

My only claim to fame.

[LateNight72]

Damn, how long ago was that? I was there when my Brother was doing some XC. He only did Snow Shoe & Mt. Snow though he really didn't travel other than for the local-ish stuff, until he started racing in College.

I raced at Mt. Snow in 2000-2004. Busted up my back at Schweitzer ID in 2005. Havent raced since.

[syborg tt]

yours didn't look as bad as some of the others,, that one rock section looked painful!!

It defintly looks tough thats for sure. Crashing into trees and rocks hurts.. I've done enough on ATVS

[Damn True]

It looks bad and has a reputation of being among the toughest sections of racecourse in the US. In reality, most of my local hill (Northstar at Tahoe) is tougher, as are parts of Schwietzer ID.

The place got in my head in practice and I augered (as you saw) in my race run I cleaned that section rather handilly.

[vanzuuk1]

Yard sale! Mt snow, I think I have you on video true.

[Damn True]

Ahh, that was no big deal.

You ought to have seen the one at Schwietzer ID that did in my back.

The guy that taped it said he wouldn't put it in a video because the sound was too disturbing.
