I’m not a skier, but this is pretty cool.

I miss skiing.

I was never as good as that guy but I do have a slight brag.
I used to be a guide for blind skiers. As part of being a guide, I learned to ski backwards. I could do most medium level slopes completely backward.
The hardest part for me was keeping the back of the skis from catching. They don't curve up like the fronts do.
I also used to switch from forward to backward skiing with ease. Every once in a while I'd see someone pointing at me while I was practicing the front to back to front twists.
 


Reminds me, a friend was the one that took care of the live jaguar for a local university. Being the guy that fed him they had gotten to be buds. This girl kept wanting to pet the jaguar, Nathan kept telling her to stay away from the cat. She kept trying and eased up to pet the cat. He slspped her with claws in and shattered her hand. The big cats aren't to be dicked with unless you are bringing them twenty pounds or so of horse meat a day!

When a friend and I were running an eighteen wheeler there was a major buckle in the concrete of the supersled between Shrevesport and Dallas. If you were snoozing in the sleeper it would flip you like a pancake! I was used to it and would barely wake up. My partner would always wake up in pure panic after going through the korean war and some mercenary time in africa.

I used to work for a company that used tigers and more than a few fingers went missing...despite direction that no unauthorized people should enter the cat area.
 
Even bobcats aren't something to mess with some friends had one as a kitten if it didn't like you or how your car or pickup smelled it would bite a tire and pop it when in the house sleeping in the sunshine at the French doors if you tried to touch one of its ears it would slap your hand with a paw and never so mach as open a eye .
Stray or extra dogs didn't last very long around their place either , they lived quite a ways from town .
