Ski Vacation

A heads up - I'll be going to Colorado to ski with friends next week.  Will be out of factory from 3/11 to 3/16.  You can still place orders, but shipments will all be delayed accordingly.

I'll pay top dollar for pics of Mackris in a compromised skiing situation.  YOu know, kind of an anti-Bodie Miller moment.  8)

Cool Pic!  Was that at Copper Mtn?

I'm sure your friends gave you the VIP treatment, any out of town genius such as yourself deserves!  But if you had any doubts, you were feelin the love, make sure to give us fans some notice next time.  We'd be glad to step up and make sure you get best treatment possible out here  :thumb:

Mackris in a compromised skiing situation

Good luck!  Our first run together was this insane climb.  At the top of this lift you have to remove your skiis and carry them up.  A grueling five minute hike.  At 12,800 feet it really sucks your lungs dry.  Once at the top, you ski over to the bowl, then drop in.  At the arrow, it's about a twenty foot drop until you hit your first turn.  A bit much for me.  We went over more to the left and came down a rocky chute.  Dangerous, but not as steep.  Probably best snow of day, as not so many have tread there.  So if Mackris normally skiis this extreme stuff, I doubt you will ever find him compromised.



The guys in the photo are my friends from the east coast.

Did you spend another part of your life as a ski bum?  That's decently difficult terrain for a vacationer to be skiing.  Looks like a good time was had by all!

Probably true!  :lol: But it would make the evidence all the more fun.  8)

Sorry, Thom. Just a bit of fun on your dime.
