From the golden years long before man made bumps. When it all started by the name of HOT DOGGIN.
With teams like White Stagg and names like Sotti Brooksbank.

I grew up nest to Scott in Sandy Utah and he showed me how to do my first 360*
I was like 12 years old and it was done in a field behind the local elementry school.
Thanks for that! The first part made me laugh!! Such finesse
I learned to ski in the 70's at the ripe age of 3. All I remember were ski boots with a million metal buckles and moguls taller than I was. My dad would blast through them and I skied up one side and down the other loved them!! But watching this video makes my knees hurt. Such style in the ski outfit. Have to say I am glad for the more laid back snowboarder style of ski clothing.
LOL that stuff's a little easier on the knees when you're 120 lbs. Every one of those dudes were sticks
Good times! My first skis had straps instead of brakes. I remember I had a ski get loose at Alta and run all the way to the bottom! :facepalm1: :lol8:
Sweet stuff! When I first moved to Steamboat in the early mid 70's. We had a group of mad dog skiers called "More Hair More Air". We all worked at the Cantina Restaurant. Leader of the pack was "Little Jack" Taylor, 2x pro mogul champion of the pro tour. Equipment used; "The Ski" (made in SLC by Bobby Burns) Scott Boots and Spademan bindings.
:hippy:Seriously sick times!!!!
Oh I was wrong 3x pro mogul champ.
that's awesome :2thumbs:Quote:
