…on how much better the music in ski edits has gotten. And these Kolabo dudes don’t even give off the I-watch-Hot-Lunch-during-”personal”-time sorta vibe. Remember dubstep? Gross.

There are cool people who read this site. There are also assholes who seem to read it often enough to complain about it (our favorites). But there are ALSO one, or maybe two, decent skiers who stop by to press play on an edit and read a few syllables. Those rare souls send me their edits, and I usually lose track of them in my inbox, as I am the absentee father of the ski blog world. But here are some of those edits from the past month or so. Enjoy, or watch enough to complain.
In historically unprecedented comments, President Obama has endorsed backseat skiing.In fact, he might even slightly prefer it to front seat.
It’s not that he’s mad at a guy like Joe Biden who is always “out over his skis.” I mean, he only “gently chided” him. But he probably just feels that Backseat Bob should have the same rights as Frontseat Fred. We don’t really get into politics here on BroBomb, but this is a pretty big deal for us. Where we live, most people on skis could probably be described as backseat-curious, if you will.
So this should come as a relief to park rats, weekend warriors, and closet backseaters everywhere. It’s finally OK to ski the way you were born to ski, without being ashamed.
Now is there the possibility that this is just some political stunt? Of course. I mean, this is bound to be popular in places like Breck and Big Boulder, as CO and PA are swing states. But let’s just enjoy the moment. OK, you cynical bastards?
They’re back and there’s more real snow and real skiing than you might expect. For some of you that will be a reason to play this video…for some that’s a warning. You decide.
Tanner is still a few years away from being skiing’s loveable old-man-yelling-at-clouds Gary Busey-esque mascot (but it will happen). And as long as media outlets like HBO are holding him up as the embodiment of our sport every time he opens his mouth will continue to be a cringeworthy event. But how could we stay mad at a face like that?
Even if he causes everyone in the world without an NS account to collectively roll their eyes in unison. And even though he seems oblivious to the notion that they do, in fact, stop boxing matches before people die. And that neither NASCAR nor Indycar is an unregulated steel cage match of automobile induced death…the dude does want to land on Mars. And don’t we all share that dream in common? Somewhere deep down in the core of our collective human psyche?
To Mars, Tanner. To Mars!
We do find ourselves partial to a certain aesthetic. But if that isn’t the best thing you’ve seen today, you suck.
Tebow leaves and the whole place goes to hell. Full “movie” in May. Rumor has it $5 VHS will be available for your lo-fi stylings. Dunfee caught up with frontman Jon Hartman to get the word on the Hot Possie’s newest and biggest charade.
Question one: How did you guys end up hooking up with Hickling and Leigh?
So long story short we were rolling from Hood to Whistler for Dragon Fest and we had nowhere to stay in Whistler, I had talked to him online a few times and just called him up and he hooked us up with a space to crash for the week. Which was much better then Max (Hill)’s floor. Hick knew Leigh, so we all kinda met up that way. He liked us so much in the four days he partied with us that he moved to the States for the winter.
So he actually moved to Denver for the winter?
Yep.
If I was from Michigan, I’d use Clint Eastwood’s voice in everything. Apropos of nothing. Enjoy this edit which has some nice funky stuff and some of the same ol’ same ol’.
Three members of the extended BroBomb familia spent last weekend at southern Vermont’s finest park hill—Mount Snow. For whatever reason, this park tends to draw a disproportionate number of skiers as compared to snowboarders. This being the weekend of the Carinthia Open, it was even more packed with skiers than usual. Therefore, I will use this trip to extrapolate large, over-general statements about the state of skiing. Enjoy.
Those are slushy bumps. They will not be mentioned below, but they are fun.
Fun is good. Although it’s also a band, which is not very good (but that one song from the Chevy commercials is pretty catchy). But the real breaking news out of Mount Snow this past weekend is that skiers are having it. Fun, that is.
Indeed.
