Hi All,

I wasn't sure if this is people or sport, but since there is no competitive element then I guess its more people than sport.
This was the annual 'Slush Cup' at Sunshive Village (Banff, Canada), the closing weekend for this seasons boarding/ skiing. Thought you might be interested, the challange is to ski across a 60 foot pool of ICE COLD water in the most amusing way, :

Flash Gordon...

Actually, I think that first guy is "The Flash". He's the one who runs real fast. Flash Gordon was the space traveling guy.

Glad you said it was the May long weekend... I know it's in the mountains but I was thinking August was a little on the late side :)
Nice bright pictures. Love that you got all the details in the wedding dress even with the white-on-white.

I think you could be right there! :confused: Must have worked too, he was one of the few to sail all the way to the other side.

Haha love the wedding bride wipeout and the groom coming to her rescue.

Last one is fantastic! I'll have to try that the next time I'm out skiing.
