Sean Cridland changed my life as a professor of philosophy through teaching an association of eastern philosophy and existentialism. It's great to see one of the experiences which brought him to those ways of thinking; he spoke of them often.
@DriftSpaceZero Thanks for the compliment! When I started speed-skiing I would read articles by Steve McKinney associating speed-skiing with Zen, but didn't really know what he was talking about. Then, in 1982 at Silverton, I went over 120mph for the first time. It was literally an ineffable experience. I didn't talk to anyone for two weeks...because I couldn't figure out what to say. Thanks for "getting it!"
If you haven't already, check out Jungle Jim Hunter's "Truck-Top" skiing vid. Jungle may have been the first, even before Kalevi Hakkinen, but didn't go for a record. Just for fun and training.

Awesome! Glad we could finally see some video of this amazing achievement! Must have been one hell of an adrenalin rush.
