John Kerry on a snowboard

[Dave Winters]

A pic of Kerry boarding-- I've seen worse form. Let's get him some TD2's and a Donek!

He's not angulating at all- he'd do better carving with his chin....

I reckon he's angulating pretty well. He's driving his knees down to the snow, but keeping his upper body fairly upright. He looks very balanced on the edge there.

Not bad for a 60 year old guy that probably doesn't get too many days on snow per year.

to the ECES. He could run the raffle for us. Wouldn't that be a hoot!

Hmm, now that I think about it, can you imagine the logistical nightmare if he were President?

The guy behind him was an employee of the mountain.

[Ghostrider]

What kind of board is he riding?
That will tell us more about the true person he really is more than any pollitical debate...

Think about it...would you rather have a president that rides Burton or Donek???

[D-Sub]

all I know is he's either got small feet or a wide board

"SUN VALLEY, Idaho -- Six months since his last vacation, John F. Kerry hoisted a Burton snowboard over his shoulder and climbed toward the slightly slushy slopes of Bald Mountain"

John Kerry: Lessons of the fall
By Kathleen Parker
Mar 31, 2004

When Sen. John F. Kerry fell -- or was toppled by a Secret Service agent -- from his perch on a snowboard recently, the would-be president clarified events with rare grace:"I don't fall down," he said. "That son-of-a-bitch ran into me."

[Jack Michaud]

someone tell that dork to take the price tag off his board.

[skategoat]

Umm... did anyone else notice the hard booter behind Kerry? The board doesn't look alpine though. And what's with the heel on his back foot? Why is it so far off the board?

[mikemcse]

Those are F2 proflex bindings with an extra spacer. I used to ride the same thing and They used to break all of the time.

Thank god for TD1 and TD2:D

[Dave Winters]

Lose the flower power zipper pull!

[willywhit]

he's such a daredevil! do we really want someone so reckless in the whitehouse ?

[Kent]

I agree.....do we want such a idiot in the Whitehouse?

[Jack Michaud]

come on guys.

[Ghostrider]

I see no signs of helmet head. I dont think he actually put on the brain bucket...POSER!:D

[willywhit]

[Ghostrider]

Shame...I was kind of looking forward to making fun of the guy for 4 years.
