Some of my favourite panoramic snaps of the mountains:

Crazy got god use out of his shovel on this trip, making up a jump:

After a few trial runs, thing got a little crazy (surprise, surprise) with Pete taking his life into his own hands letting Crazy jump over him while filming (check out the vid for the result):

Here's a few snaps of Crazy hitting the jump:

And a couple of big nights out:

We met a couple of jocks, who impressed us with their political, social and economic views on the world:

And a whole lot of drunken boogying on the dance floor was the go:

And we met a few other interesting characters... Tim was rather impressed with this guy, taking him back home for a few "drinks" in private...

And here's a blurred snap:

Alex, me, Matt, Crazy,
Be's pimp (by the looks of it) Pete, Be and Tim

Thumbs up for a great holiday:

Of course, no holiday with Crazy John would be complete without a couple of crazy stories:

On the first day, Crazy ended up losing his walkie-talkie on his first run, but amazingly, we got it back after Pete kept trying to say "lost radio" in French and a chick said she had it at the bottom of a chair lift. That was also the day I was quite happily snowboarding down a run before being catapulted into the air by a Crazy John travelling at warp speed behind me and crashing into my back. Serves me right for not having eyes in the back of my head I guess ;-)

Crazy scared the craap out of a gondola packed full of people on the second day. Everyone was just chilling and no-one said anything for about 5 mins. Crazy must have been listening to his music too loud again and all of a sudden started yelling "WHO WANTS A BEER?! SHALL WE GO GET A BEER?", he then turned around to some poor old dude behind him (Crazy must have thought he was Pete or someone) and started yelling at him, "WHAT ABOUT YOU, DO YOU WANT A BEER?!". Now you can imagine what must have gone through the heads of some of the French only speaking people in the gondola when some guy with a crazy look in his eyes starts yelling out in some incoherent babble in your face... probably translating it as "JIHAD, JIHAD, I WILL OPEN THE DOORS AND THROW YOU ALL OUT!!!!". Matt and I (who were in the gondola at the time) just stared at each other in disbelief until I finally said "um, yeah, ok", pretending not to really know him.

And now for the video! I'm particularly proud of this one, it came out rather good in my book!
