Default Top Ten Comments Heard at the Grass Skiing Competition.

Greetings,

Recently in Iran they held an international grass skiing competition. Here
is a sample of the top ten remarks overheard at the event #3 & #4
respectively:
# The weeds on the west run provide good bump skiing!
# The Saif run has patches of crab grass, boy do they grab your skis!

See http://www.wi-ski.com/article.php?st...51015120831219 for the whole
list! Enjoy!

Yup, funny comments.

The International Grass Skiing Competition really did happen.
I would be interested in hearing about it, if you or anyone knows.
There are many Google hits but none leads to anything informative.

The skis look like they have rollers on them.

Actually have a per of grass skis.. One ski school director I worked
for would have us racing (keep in shape) with them in the summer. This
was before mountain biking became popular.

Lot of fun but have to clean the grass & mud out of them after every
run..
