GTs are the best
Go check out the page spdst.com there is some crazy gting on it if you can find it. Back flips, double tail whips and crazy big air. The guys are from thunder bay, lots of people do it here. We used to go all the time a couple years back. Once my friend cleared 50' on a gt off of a snowboard jump.
Madness

50FT OFF A JUMP ON A GT! HOLY *****!!!! My longest clear was like.......15' or 20'!

Lol, being in a GT being towed? Forget that! I was going 35Km/h on my SHOES behind my dads truck.........IN GRAVEL! Lmao. Then I tried it in snow and it was better but then I fell on my butt and my dad stoped "towing" me.

Ryan......I understand what you mean. My uncle used to tow me around with his skidoo and I was in a tube.......Hit alot of things......hit my head alot! Lol.

Maybe it's all our stupidity as kids on GT's that has caused us to be the way we are.

But it sure was fun bouncing off of walla and trees on GT's and tubes. Those were the days.......or the few I can actually remember.....lol

I'll take tractor inner tubes over GTs anyday!! LOL, specially tied up to a skidoo! We used to do that out at my cousins and would make ramps by dismantleing hay bales. My uncle was never impressed but it worked great. Fun to do on the lake with motor boats too in the summer of course.

I can't believe how much snow there is here right now! And there's much more to come! This has got to be the most snow in my lifetime; the only thing that ever came this close was '89 when I got to miss a few days of school and try to cross-country ski with my downhill skis around the neighbourhood.

By the way, anyone who leads a group called the funky bunch has got to be the shiznit.

I cant count how many time I got stitches because of GTS. I once cleared a school portable sort of, broke my arm on the other side. To explain how we built the jump we made boluders from rolling snow ball we packed around 8 of them then used alot of snow to fill it in.And after that a sheet of plywood and about 100 buckets of water. The next days was fun lol.

Jeff, all you got was 3 inches? Wow, We got 2 ft and we had no electricity for 24 hours We had branches and trees falling everywhere. Im thinking about going out today and building a fort. We shoveled the huge driveway and piled the snow to both sides so 1 side is already done. Heh. Im just like an hour drive away from you too...

Thanks

I never said that. We got more than Vancouver and we got the most of anywhere on the Island.
