Earthquake in SW Michigan causes OTF

[MISkier]

On Saturday, May 2, 2015, a magnitude 4.2 earthquake occurred in Southwest Michigan. It apparently happened during my set and seemed to have caused some issues. See if you can determine the moment the earthquake hits.

@miski it is a good story....

That looked painful

[MISkier]

@Texas6, it was a slight bell ringer, but I was OK. I skied more passes immediately, but both sides of my neck from clavicle to jawbone hurt for a couple days.

The moment your right shoulder hit the water. That sent seismic vibrations across the country.

Good to hear nobody was hurt, seismic activity is one of the leading causes of slalom OTF's

It was the Tsunami at orange; get rid of that loop, yellow is mellow.

@Texas6,

 

I had no idea that seismic-induced crashes were so prevalent. I previously thought it was my fault somehow. In all truth, I had been skiing a lot in the previous days and was way too tired and somewhat sore to hold proper position

 

@Gloersen,

 

We are still early season here. I won't move to 28 for a few more days. Good thing, too.

 

This video is similar to Jeff Rodgers "43 at 43" - his pursuit of 43 off at 43 years old. Mine is "50 at 50" - the pursuit of a 50 mph OTF at 50 years old. I think I've just about got it nailed.
