    Kilted skiing on Video!

    Just for fun, a friend of mine filmed me whilst we were skiing the Ridge of Bell in Aspen Yesterday. Thought I would try to embed the video here.





    PS: in case anyone was wondering, it's 3/17/07, 65 degrees F, 35 degree slope and windless...life just doesn't get much better

    That is pretty cool. How do you keep your kilt from flying up and do you wear some cold weather gear under there?
