Kung foo fighting! I was struggling with short turns a couple of seasons back, my instructor had us singing our way down the slope to get some rhythm of the pole plant going. Now whenever I take on something steeper/narrower I can't get that tune out of my head-it worked though.Thanks for posting this thread, you got me grinning thinking about it.
Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

lilywhite, ...brilliant....that's what it (life & skiing) is all about
I don't really even like Queen, but this song for those twitchy moments works for me.
And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

Thanks - I was always a bit twitchy on the steeps before but now I know I am potentially sharing the slope with people playing this sort of stuff I will be close to wee-ing myself next time I drop off a lip. Cheers.
So if you're just off somewhere snowy come back and post a snow report of your own and we'll all love you very much

Has to be something by Strung Out. Back around '95ish when I used to snowboard there was a sequel to the awesome Day Tripper movie with a segment to this song which leads into a steep line with a big old backflip off a cliff, epic tune:
Lol I did have a walkman but was 6 when that came out, my Blizard interest comes from Steep so is confined to the two long sections on Youtube which I regularly stick on to get me in the mood for skiing
Strangely the full film was a bit of a let down when I got to see it

Guilty as charged, lots of double fist pumps to this one, tried to get the lads into it last trip by bringing the laptop and DVD but no avail

On a different planet and giving some idea of my sell-by date..... in the beautiful canadian style powder of Grimentz last year , I think it was "My bonnie lies over the ocean" on the medium /lower steepness. Half a mile of it !!.
A bit steeper and I chime in with "...for those in peril on the sea"
