Manimal 0 Posted March 20, 2004 Share Posted March 20, 2004 When was that? Link to post Share on other sites
Goemon 0 Posted March 20, 2004 Author Share Posted March 20, 2004 It was from this past weekend; he took a few days off from campaigning to ride the mountains in Idaho. Link to post Share on other sites
dale#1 1 Posted March 21, 2004 Share Posted March 21, 2004 And did he snowboard before now? If so, whats the problem? Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted March 21, 2004 Share Posted March 21, 2004 While that is exactly how I would picture Kerry snowboarding, something about the head looks photoshoppy. Goemon, is that for real or what? Do tell. Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted March 21, 2004 Share Posted March 21, 2004 No wait, here he is figgering the darn thing out. His hair just naturally looks photoshoppy. Link to post Share on other sites
indosnm 0 Posted March 21, 2004 Share Posted March 21, 2004 saw it on CNN this morning.. looked real to me! Link to post Share on other sites
veronica 2 Posted March 21, 2004 Share Posted March 21, 2004 I saw a bit of that too this morning. Looks like he was skiing as well.. Link to post Share on other sites
Goemon 0 Posted March 21, 2004 Author Share Posted March 21, 2004 I don't think there's any "problem" with him snowboarding...except for his atrocious form. Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted March 21, 2004 Share Posted March 21, 2004 I found a clip on ABC. He looks likes a 2-lesson beginner with some promise. They even covered knuckle-dragging at the end of lesson 2 by the looks. Definitely appeared to be a carefully packaged stunt though. He was too busy waving with spontaneous bonhomie from the lift to be checking out his next line under the ropes, which makes me think he isn't a real ripper. And where was his hip flask?

Plucky 0 Posted March 22, 2004 Share Posted March 22, 2004 It's better than Bush falling off a Segway and getting a black eye while eating a pretzel. Damn, Ghandi could be running for president and go snowboarding and 95% of people would consider it a political move. You cynical bastards Link to post Share on other sites
Ocean11 0 Posted March 22, 2004 Share Posted March 22, 2004 Yeah, and I thought the point of the Segway was that you can't fall off 'em. Dubya's gut-bucket mother didn't fall off... How many of you skiers will be voting for Kerry now? I reckon he's taken a very risky gamble there. Link to post Share on other sites
