JC is old school and is truly a hero. In the 70's, it was him, Wang Wong, Eddie Ferguson, Suzie Chapstick. That crew literally put freestyle skiing on the map, they belong in the ski hall of fame.
Okay, everyone stick their hand up who knows what the Jet turn is.
Did you have the Jet stick? I did.
What was it used for?
The Jet turn.
"Who" was the Jet turn?
Wang Wong.
I had a poster of him above my head. The classic poster (boy, I'd pay for that) of him I think on K2's -- the red/white/blue bases- in the bumps, doing a Jet turn. As I understand it, Wang shows up to JC's camps every now and then.
Back then, I was too poor/angry/both to ski. I just dreamed about it.
Who had a pair of the red/white/blue sunglasses? I want a pair.
Remember ballet skiing? What was it called? The Royal Christie. Every now and then, I see someone doing one. There's guys at the Love Land that are way proud of their straight skis, from the 70's. This one guy really does think he's good...No, I'm not sayin a word to him.
The 70's baby. Bitchin. Sex, drugs, rock and roll.
