This was a nice day to go with hardly any crowds at
Appalachian Ski Mtn in Blowing Rock, NC. This year I (Tim) have officially been riding 12 years (Julie's been riding 7), but this is the first year I've really gotten into the Terrain Park.
This was my second perfect ride on the flat rail of the day. The picture is a little misleading, because there's a snowbank between the camera and the rail. So what you don't see is that at the end of the rail is actually a drop of about 4 feet to a 45° down landing.
This was a crazy fall. I started out straight, then my board decides to turn backside (which means clockwise), and then *bam!* the edge caught and flipped me over backwards. I got up laughing though... thankful my head didn't hit anything!
Gack! When shin meets metal flat rail... This must have happened on an earlier run that we didn't get on camera. Funny thing is I didn't know it happened until much later.
