does not make any of them smart. My point is it would be impossible to follow me with out a helmet. If you watch the video you can see time where I am clearly getting smacked with branches. A hat and goggles would get ripped off to easily.

I have never seen someone skiing where I am skiing with out a helmet ever.

we have trees so tight you can not get though them either but the real point is this we have the tightest most technical skiable trees anywhere simply put carvers do not work. People always post up video of people skiing wide open powder on old straight skis but that video does not exist here. Even the oldest crustiest locals will tell you that while they skied tree on straight skis and narrow parabolics that the new fun shapes have opened up line and speed to the best skiers on the hill. Having the tightest non skiable trees is like saying you have the fastest car with out an engine.

the easy way to settle this is to come to stowe and prove to me your skinny skis can hang here. I would put alot of money up just to make this happen.
