[Off topic] Your sport pictures shot this summer

Post by fivat » Friday 25 August 2006, 16:27

Hello all,

Summer is not over, but holidays are over for most of us :-(

What are your substitutes to snowboarding? 8)

:arrow: Feel free to post here a picture that you took this summer, and share your passion(s)
(size maxi: 800 x 800 pixels)

I keep my legs ready for next winter thanks to wakeboarding and mountain biking mainly. Here is a picture taken in the Italian Alps. Nice run for the descent! :D

I was told that you have won some sailing competitions this summer!
Congratulations! :pray2:
Waterskiing (with monoski) is the sport that made me discover and love "carving", when I was a teenager... when alpine snowboarding was not yet invented! Then I wanted to apply that to snow.

Virus ME109 Proto

Post by István » Tuesday 5 September 2006, 19:23

It's a bit off-topic in this thread, but let the pic speak instead of words 8)

It is named after a 2nd world war bomber aircraft.
