In reality there was plenty more of them in Zinal due quite many Swoarders have them

Lots of great pics on that site, I like this one:



This one is cool, too:

Do you have some "old" pictures of you riding?
I'm curius if we have the same style

I seem to have completely avoided the dozens of cameras at the SES the last 2 years, but I do have a few videos I can upload tonight. You can see my avatar though - like you: reddish/rust softshell jacket, black pants, black helmet. Also, backpack (with a similar cross-chest strap), goggles, facemask pulled down over chin

Same boots, too, maybe? Track 325s?

Our toesides look similarly relaxed, but our heelsides look different.

Bummer I only saw this thread recently - I was in Aspen all last week (Feb 1->7) - would have been pretty funny to ride with you out there

Wow. That is quite rad. And I don't use that word very much.

Most of the footage is from this year. In the 3rd and 4th clips I look just like you.

pokkis,
super cool video. Great shots.
Looks like GoPro HD camera is lots of fun to have it.

Really nice video.
Where do you attach (and how) you GoPro? Boots/bindings or on your board?
I'm trying to avoid the helmet since it does not seem to show the sense of speed that your video is showing.

Here's a picture of the mountig. It's a steelplate which is mounted between the binding with some foam for better suspension.

Nice set up, makes for very smooth videos considering it's on the board

Run what you brung.

Building some nice angles there Kathy.

[kinpa]

Can I add on to say this was at the bottom of an easy run.... so, in other words, I didn't have to worry about speed at all! Yes, I'm a whimp, and yes, I have a real issue with speed.... but I do like little cross under turns on something easy!

Your best carve photo might not have you in it. Look for the hand mark. I know its not cool to touch the snow. I like it.

Taken Saturday, courtesy of caspercarver. A cautious heelside on sketchy groom bounded by icy death cookies. Good fun!

Perfect Form...showing those Cookies whose Boss...

[two_ravens]

Thanks! Caspercarver very kindly avoided taking any shots of me crashing and burning a little farther down the run, so I can pretend I had it all under control!

[glenn]

So it's not much...Nice jacket though

[kinpa]

two things I like about the pic Glenn....

(1) the snow blends in with the white background... makes you stand out!
(2) look at that board bend!!!!!

Nice!

But did you notice the jacket? ...It's new

[kinpa]

ok, ok.....

and number (3) Glenn's new jacket!

But honestly, (even though I'm a female and should be impressed by those kinda things) WHO CARES ABOUT THE JACKET???!?!?!??!?!?!

Heck, I still wear old uniform jackets from Tussey Mountain (that's what I was wearing in the earlier pic of me posted here) when I went to school at Penn State in the mid early 90s! But since I'm instructor and in uniform most of the time, I guess I haven't felt the need to buy a nice jacket.... I'll just keep wearing the old uniforms I have accumulated over the years.

And I'm thinking a #4 needs to be added too.....
(4) the upright stance.... no hands dragging in the snow! That's more my style!

Did you notice...The boots match too

[kinpa]
