Rock Star Photos

Post the best ski photos you've taken: consider a shot where you've made a ski buddy look good.

Include the name of the skier, the ski mountain, and the date.

Gore Mountain, NY • February 15, 2010

Telemark Dave ripping it up at Secret Hill, December 12, 2009. He and I cut this glade in the fall of '09, it is a 15 minute ski from my house. Not Powder Mag quality but it is my best action photo!

My buddy John in the woods



Telemarkers do it deeper in the bush!



Ok one more of me. Coming out of Tahawus Glades.

That top picture is fantastic . . .

It's a fine line between a Friday Fantasy Photo and a Rock Star Photo.  

While the pic of JasonWx at Plattekill did appear as a FFF, IMO it's more of a RSF.  

Our (admittedly loose) definitions:

Friday Fantasy Photo's are about the the scene and the conditions.

Rock Star Photos are about the skier.

Whattaya got Matt?

Post RSF's here. Email FFF's to harvey44@nyskiblog.com.

I think I've posted this one of me in Tahoe before:



And here's one from the Gore bump contest like 6 years ago:



Other than that, I'd have to start taking freeze frames from video . . . Maybe if I get some free time . . .

NOICE. (Where taken?)

Here's a loose definition of the term "Rock Star." Sunday River fires off 80 guns including a battery of fan guns.

It's called a "test." Of the Emergency Marketing System.  Coincidentally on the discount deadline for season passes.



I didn't ask for permission to use this photo, but somehow I'm thinking they won't mind...
