FEELING GROOVY ON NORTH 36TH >>>
The original downhill pioneers damn near strapped entire tree trunks to their feet, doggedly steering them like great monoliths. Back then, men were men, and people had to ski uphill, both ways, in the snow.
And you know what? Those manly men laughed and laughed - even though they we working up one helluva rash.
Times have changed, and so have the equipment, clothing and attitudes. What hasn't changed is the thrill one feels when the planks are strapped and pointed down.
Aaron Pedersen, a familiar face around the Proctor District, community events and fantasy football tables, went for a thrill ride today on skis - down North 36th Street in Tacoma. He recorded the feat via a head cam, as well as dropped a groovy tune over it.
Well done Mr. Pedersen
