SKI Patrol Episode on TuTV. OMG!!!!!

Did anybody see the Ski Patrol episode on TuTV ( Comcast ch 49, 10:00 PM evry Wed) last night featuring our very own Crystal Ski patrol in action.
It was ,IMVHO terrible and it was so embarrassing that  during several sections I could only look at with my hands over my face.

Now their obvious caring and attention to their injured clients was noteworthy and commendable but the rest of the segments where terrible. As a promotional vehicle it gives the impression that it's absolute carnage out there. I also think they stereotyped snowboarders. Every incident regarding collisions, speeding, wild behaviour and jumping of the lift was about snowboarders and the guy and his buddy skiing in the toga was obviously a set up.

Although I hope the blond Aussie chick with the lolly pop and the speed gun stops me for speeding down Queens run, she's kinda cute. 
What was Crystal Mtn thinking when they agreed to this tripe!

Funny stuff and bad TV indeed. Though I have to admit to watching it just to see our home hill with snow on it!

Maybe one of us will get a cameo!

Whoo Hooo Just watched the 11pm Thursday rerun version. LOL so hard I may schedule a visit to the proctologist to patch things up. I do think the the life threatening aspect of a fall on Queens may be a bit overdone. As far as speeding boarders go.... lets give them queens and rolling knolls and they can knock each other out all day long. ( I know I just incurred the wrath of every knarley split boarder. Tuff. ) I might even pay money to get a radar gun reading down Portillio or the berg. Are you listening Barrci, here's another opportunity for the CM Challenge to step up to the plate. In all honesty I think the Pro Patrol and the few remaining volleys at CM do an outstanding job. I would hope further episodes will show a little more real reality and a lot less fluff. Too bad the editor of all this has never skied or even seen the mountain, Can't wait for winter to come, winterized the 'tique and mowed the lake front for the last time last week.

Y'all can catch some of this ski patrol vid on the internet at:  www.trutv.com/shows/ski_patrol/index.html

Wow, just wow, that looks really bad.

Maybe one of us will get a cameo!

Congrats Rickster for representing at last year's VertFest! Way to rock the yellow skinsuit for the whole world to see!
