Doug and his wife were my neighbors at the LBR. Very nice people. They did get a little tipsy that night...but so did everyone who wasnt trying for a world title the next day.


That article is the shiznit

Check out his posture....The "first" ski must have had footholds and the aluminum handle pole was "fixed". Not much has changed.

All it needs is a backflip and a barrel roll button....Back to the future.

Doug Silverstien in the middle?? I've met Johnny Silverstien (JohnnyO's) years ago and this looks like it could be his brother.

Too young to be Clayton Jacobson so how about Clayton's son. I really don't know except that I saw a pic of the back of that shirt. Cool shirt btw.

Later
