Who Needs Snow??

With global warming, we just might have to learn to ski without snow!

Enjoy!

That guy is one crazy skier. No one else drops my jaw as often as he does.

First thought: It's good to have a ski sponsor.

Second thought: Damn he's good.

Third Thought: You can surf on skis that size?!

Fourth thought: Where is that Chairlift? (Based on quick research - I think the answer is Jamaica).


Crazy sick video. Amazing Athlete.

I'm also amazed at how much glide he's seemingly getting on some of those surfaces.

Here's my all time favorite video of his.

This week it's global cooling... don't worry though, they will still tax you for that too

I was thinking about some kevlar skins you could put over your skis and use in low tide conditions or no snow. I'm waiting for a ski manufacturer to come out with a low tide ski. I want something I can bash through rocks on like Candide...

Imagine if he worked for a ski shop.
A customer comes in and says, "I need a base grind."
"No problem", he says, and heads out the back door with the skis.

Faction Dictators that I have can crush rock piles of chowder without a whimper. Been steering clear of granite type of rocks.

Only one run per pair of skis would be my guess Also have seen guys with snow boards on the dunes of the Outer Banks NC.

Also....there are so many amazing places on this planet to explore that don’t have snow.

Too bad the BLM allowed off road vehicles there...it kind of ruins the peace and quiet. I’ve seen this in recent years in Moab.

White Sands National Monument in NM would be great for skiing...the gypsum sand is soft, compared to the silica-rich sands of Nevada, Utah, and Colorado.

Hiking up sand dunes sucks. Worse than snow. Riding back down would be fun, though.
