All Things Glen Plake

In March of 2012 my son's multi-day PSIA exam at Sunday River, ME coincided with Glen and his wife's exams. Although they were not in the same groups, my son got to boot-up and boot-down with Glen for 2 or 3 days. Both Glen and his wife Kimberly were super friendly and generous with their time and handing out signed posters.

Riding up the gondola @ Mammoth in May, 2014. Three of us took a run with him and another guy he was skiing with, great day.

Plake was pacesetter for a Nastar at Canaan Valley WV that I entered 10+ years ago.
They didn't use his time after he started 20 feet up the hill. He was going full speed
when he hit the starting gate!

I need to do that with all of my VHS ski movies.

I need to do that with all of my VHS ski movies.

I've done a number of them, including "Born To Ski" and a number of the Stump videos before they finally re-released those on DVD. I use Roxio Creator 2010, which I now have running on Windows 10. Seems to work OK. I'll find a funny segment from one of them and see if I can clip it out and post here. Plake definitely is on a roll in Snowhat! All that seems to matter is being outrageous and having a great time. I like that.

Also got to ski with Glen at a PSIA convention, don't remember what the clinic exactly was, but I DO remember that I had a blast!

The Glen Plake tour rolled into Hunter Tuesday for a firefighter race. Pretty cool. He commented that he passed his level III exam at Hunter. I'm guessing he goes over the Bellyare today to enjoy the new snow.
