Carving pics from the early days....

Post by **István** » Monday 26 November 2007, 12:14

I thought this one is worth a separate thread just to cheer up people.

Post old carving pics!

This one is approximately 10-11 yrs old

Cheers

ps.: Extra points will be granted for people with the most colorful gear. The neon color one-piece will take it all

C'mon, don't be shy... post your old pics! Let us have a good laugh...

I'll buy a hot wine in Zinal for the one posting the ugliest pic

Hey,

I am also a big fan of retro and old Checkered Pig and Crazy Banana boards.
Have a look at this -

I think I'll try to go there this season.

Cheers
Bart

These pics rock! Any pics of you, Franck?

So far the prize (hotwine) goes to Jacques for his gear on this pic

I wish I could see what those boots were....

I encourage all of you to participate, still waiting for a grand shot in a neon yellow one-piece suit

that will be difficult to beat!

Maybe the Swoard team could come up with a retro Swoard as an additional prize for the best retro pic

Very cool! Not neon yellow, but indeed nice one-piece suite....

The jump looks like an old snowboard mag cover

Eat this:

Not a carving pic, and not very close. But taken in January 2007 in Silvretta Nova.

A yellow one-piece? We want to see a pic of you carving in a yellow one-piece....

Here is one from first year -91 when i started snowboard, (or first year if we dont count stuff from winter -80

but that is another story)
One piece O'Neil with Oneil gloves, Koflachs and Sims

Next ones are from -93 (but they could be also -94)
Naturally frontside smile on face

and same smile on backside too

Many thanks to Istvan of this thread, i have plenty of good laugh when looking old pictures., and it is so nice to look how young i was then, like some of you now

I must start to dig out old tapes from early nintees out from self to get even more laughs
