Hi from South Korea

[smurfco]

New shots from the slopestyle event yesterday added to the Google Photo album. Some highlights:

Wow, that last shot is cool as fuck.

 

[smurfco]

I took maybe 10 or 12 shots of the skiers coming over that hill and that is one of only a couple that came out looking like anything besides a smudge in the air.

Cool shots.
Thanks for sharing.

*off to google slopestyle*

Loving all the stuff you are sharing with us. I will say again, I haz jealous. I could have gone to some of the SLC games, but with young kids, and work obligations, we did not make it happen. Kinda wish we did.

I also love this that Mikaela posted:

That is a great post, she is wise beyond her years and it is great to see that she's appreciating the experience more than the medal count.

Thanks for continuing to post these pics, very cool. Slopestyle must be impressive to see up close. Incredible awareness and body control in that sport.

I heard someone there say that the NK cheerleaders don’t look very cheerful when they aren’t actually cheering.

I wonder if they are all scoping the exits to find the best way to defect.

Only if they want the rest of their extended family to end up in a labor camp. and I am fairly certain no one in that cheerleading group does not have family back in the North to use as leverage to guarantee proper behavior. It was interesting watching them during the figure skating event. They (N. Korea) had a couple entered in the pairs event. They were doing their cheer thing loudly after the North Korean pair skated (and they were actually decent). Then they all left. Did not stick around for any more of the event.

I visited a Buddhist temple in a national park today. My camera battery died but I will upload pictures later. Got this one picture on my phone, I made a friend! He insisted that I hold the spear

That looks suspiciously like it came from the set of first gen Star Trek. Sure there wasn't some dragon/godzilla on two legs creature wandering around?

I doubt that you will be able to take the spear as carry on luggage.

This may be the greatest picture of Smurfco in the history of Smurfco.

I guess Van Halen was wrong in the song "Runnin' With the Devil" when they sang "I got no love, no love in Korea".

Really enjoying your album/shots. You seem to be able to get right up close to the venues. Is that because you have a press pass, or can anyone get in those areas?

It's because he's a giant, and now brandishes a spear.
