Some bonkers stuff from back in the day. Brings back memories of working the lift and even laying the matting. Such a shame. http://youtube.com/v/V8b2iO2aRYQ

Awesome!
When I saw the link I hoped it was some goon squad stuff! I worked there 91-95. Pop, Vic, Dean, Andy, Steve G, Adam...
Wonder if Candide has seen that
Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

I just found a photo that reminded me of this thread and brought back some good memories - too good not to share! From way back when skis were long and Dendix was the only option 51 weeks of my year.
The slope brought me to the city and gave me some amazing memories, experiences and skills were honed on the local slope. Let's hope something rises from the ashes so the next generation can have the opportunity I had.
Can anyone name the
- year
- any faces
Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Nidecker on the back row is a '91/'92 board, and they were changing graphics every year, so sometime around then?
Did an ASSI refresher course at Sheffield back in the day

Before my time at Sheffield. However, fourth from left in middle row is Dave Murdoch (who I was skiing with last week and now with rather less hair). I think fourth from right on the middle row is Dave Hartley.
Perhaps the blonde lady in the front row is Molly Gill.
You'll get to see more forums and be part of the best ski club on the net.

Dave Hattersley is middle row, 4th in. He was there right up to the end, in Snow and Rock.
Yup, Molly on the front and Norman far right, 2nd row. They are still teaching up at Castleford.
I'm in there, but can't remember the year for certain. I'm going for '93, but could be '92.
Love the way everyone is holding the skis up so they look massive! I used to use 200s, possibly even 203s for slalom racing. They were half way down the slope by the time my shins hit the wand...

I saw Molly last weekend at Hemel, she was running a first aid course.
And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

Fantastic video, thanks for sharing it. Brings back some memories. My dad was a teacher running school ski trips. We used to come to Sheffield as kids to get some practice in before we went to the mountains. I now work in Sheffield funnily enough.
