Jumping to conclusions

It always amazes me to see all the modern conveniences.

It’s a hole in one! ..does this mean he has to buy all the other skiers a drink?

“The thrill of victory and the agony of defeat.”

This comic is dedicated in honor of ski jumper Vinko Bogataj.

Well, they called him super-skier, as he laid around the club house ….

Eddie the Eagles ancestor ?

The agony of defeat.

and the agony of defeat….

I’m reminded of the Disney Goofy skiing episode where it debuted his infamous yell: YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-HOO-HOO-HOOEY!!!!! YAAAAA-HOOEY!!!

At least he wasn’t “ the agony of defeat’ for those that remember the Wide World of Sports show.

Stuck the landing!

Too much Red Bull?

“S’now skin off my nose… and cheeks, and chin, and…”

They live in Land of the Lost

That record must still stand today. It looks like he got air off the ramp probably late in the afternoon when the sun was shining, remained airborne all night long, and finally landed the next morning when the sun had risen again!

I wonder if the record will be where he hit the snow or where he hit the ground. Inches count in these things.

Go for the gold!

Well, at least he had snow this time. Yesterday, the skier was taking it down a sand slope.

Has mankind learned to write yet, so they KNOW it’s a record?

He has clearly made an impact on his sport…and made quite an impression.

I’m ok…

Love the well supported launching pad with those braces and sways. Engineering was in the genes of humans.

He’s left his mark on the sport.

And a soft landing?

Everything went just as planned. )-;

On another bright side, it’s a soft landing.

Great structure later copied in medieval times…

He must have lost his skis before he stuck the land. Probably how he was able to fly past the tape

It must be uncomfy to ski in just shorts.

Note to Outlook Calendar for Spring, go back and get his skis.

Time to skidaddle.

Colorist got it right today

What in the wide, wide world of sports is a-goin’ on here?

Did you ever see The Flintstones?
