Giving the Middle Finger
By Miles Clark
Footage from my Helmet cam on Feb. 3rd, the same day I was having the Avatar problems. These are some of the other fun lines from that day including the Middle Finger, and one of my favorites: The Drifter on China Wall.

Some low angle pow
Over the past couple days we've gotten a bit of new snow. Just enough to freshen things up a bit and make some of my favorite lines in the backcountry nice and fresh again. And everyone knows that I love to ski low angle pow. Today we headed out to one of my favorite zones and found exactly what we were looking for, fresh turns. We battled with some difficult visibility and waited for a while to get this "window". This short video clip is from one of the runs I took today, Sunday 2/7/10. HOTG. Notice, when I pull up in the middle, the freight train of sluff that flies by, good thing I wasn't in its way...

Skiing in Jan/Feb

It was a big congregation out at the Buttes in Tahoe after the big storm broke in late January. There was the TGR crew, a snowboard film crew in addition to me and my pals.
We found this hut in the middle of nowhere and decided to take a break from the cold. Next to me is Wiley Miller and Greg Lindsay

Line Skis Preview for 2011
So the past few weeks I tried out a few different pairs of next years Line Skis. The new Eric Pollard pro model which is stiffer and has what Line calls “thin tip” (get your head out of the gutter). I skied them in the morning while everything was still super fresh. They were sick I thought the stiffer flex helped with stomping bigger cliffs. The thin tip for sure reduced swing weight, made it a little easier to swing them around to ride switch (aka jailhouse). They are still that same style EP that is heavily surf inspired in my opinion. Laying down monster slashes and buttering off stuff is not a problem with the EP’s once again.
Once things started to get chopped out a little I switched up to the new Sir Francis Bacon’s. Next year they have early rise in the tip and tail which I am super stoked on. They killed it and they were one of the most fun and versatile skis I have been on .They would make a great backcountry ski for someone who is more of a newschooler. Since they are stiffer then the EP’s and skinnier, they are a little less of a pow specific ski and handled the chop really well. They also brought back the black and white striped bases which makes them ideal for all you steeze bots trying to get on the cover of the Sierra Sun.
Last but never least I tried the new Blends, this year they added early rise and a softer flex. This is the ultimate everyday ski; it’s able to handle pretty much any type of snow conditions. Which you will see in this video, I hit the park, send some chutes, and even find some week old powder stashes. If you are looking for a one quiver ski then the blend would be a wise choice. The softer flex and early rise makes it more playful and really fun to ski. It also helps with keeping them on top of softer snow. I highly recommend all three of these skis depending on your ability and style of skier.

Tahoe Dangerzone on CBS 13 Sacramento!
Thats right. CBS 13 News in Sacramento will be airing a segment on Tahoe Dangerzone directly following the Super Bowl post-game show. Here are some stills from our shoot at Boreal Mountain Resort. MAKE SURE TO TUNE IN!



The segment features Porters team rider Nick Visconti, Joshua Parker, Brent Oftedal, Danyale Patterson, Brett Butcher and Tim Bradley. This last photo happened when the CBS filmer got a little to close to the action. Brett underflipped the hip and landed directly on his legs. Fortunately, they are both ok.
