Christian Pondella photoAS PART OF A TYPICALLY GRANDIOSE AND SPLASHY roundup in Skiing Magazine entitled "The Future of Skiing: The 28 people, products, and inventions revolutionizing our sport," writer Rob Story summarily dismissed "that mohawked dude in the Mammoth parking lot who’ll fire up power tools and cut you a pair of skis during lunch if you slide him $300."
