came in a little too hot early morning, steep chute (gravy chutes, mammoth )
I'd been skiing it all day the day before, but it had firmed up a bit over night.
I kicked a ski off about the third turn in, too tight for recovery, spun backwards & planted my left ass cheek to an ice bump.The hike back up for my ski sucked big time, skied another 4 hrs, then my cheek started to swell & pain began. Home whining like a bitch now.....

Dude ouch! Hope your ass is healing quickly. I f’d my back wiping out skiing a couple weeks ago too- screwed up my quadratus lumborum big time also on a chunk of ice but massage is relay helping.

Also great video. Thanks for posting!bongsmilie

Killer time in Mammoth this week. Lots a new snow, perfect wind, weather couldn't be better.
I meet a retired, US disabled Ski team athlete ( stand up ) in the gondi, and skied with him most of Friday. He's retired from competition ( 2007 -08 olympian ), and is now guiding/leading a blind skier on the team. His guy didn't have a race Friday so he was free skiing. The US & Canadian teams were up for a national race.
What a great skier, I had fun showing him around a little, he was very appreciative.
I looked him up online this morning...
