f#ck no. i'd run away like a *****.
i might do it if it were done professionally, but i still tend to doubt that i'd have the stones.
i ski at a top level, and have been in several life threatening lines, but there's a measure of control that you demonstrate on skis that gives you confidence. i've been skiing as long as i can remember, and i have supreme confidence in my abilities, which calms me down and gives me focus in a life threatening situation.
this is just trusting your life to somebody else's rigging. no thank you.
russians have no fear. my hat goes off to them. not only are they athletic guys, they're fearless.

Here he goes again with the skiing .
i've skied on the hardest chair lift access skiing in the world, and i've been in backcountry all over north america. if you can get to it via chairlift i can ski it. if you want to find a markedly better skiier than your boy NE you've got to look for high level racers and sponsored skiers. they're out there, but frankly i never come across them.
your british bones would probably shatter when you let me crank some ski boots on you. you've probably never even been to the mountains.
pardon the confidence. you'd have it too if you were a world class skier.
i was strong and fast to the point of deviance in my youth.
i need to see your pics, height, weight, reach, standing vertical leap if you want me to take you seriously in a discussion of athletic endeavors.Last edited by New England; 09-17-2013, 04:56 PM.

no joke, you would stop skiing after a few runs because your feet hurt if you got into a properly fit raceboot, or even backcountry boots.
brits have never left those ****** city streets. they breathe dirty air, and their bones turn to powder under stress.

probably because I grew up already, I won't do that now. but when I was 12-16 did similar things with friends
