Win a Sandbox helmet and DVD - embarrassing photos

Avatar

Hey guys,

Win a Brain Bucket helmet and a Shine On DVD from Sandbox. Your choice of colours and sizes. We will also have a runners-up prize of another Shine On DVD and Neff beanie. http://www.sandboxland.com/

We are going to run this contest for a few weeks. Basically we need you to post the most embarrassing old photos of yourself in snow gear. It doesn’t matter how many years the photos date back. Let’s see the old fashion trends…

Did you wear fluro one pieces? Did you wear overalls? Did you wear cute little pink mitts? Did your mum make you wear your sister’s old jacket? Did you SKI?  big surprise

We are going to need two photos. One embarrassing photo and one current photo, so we can see how your style has changed over the years. The main prize will go to the member with the most embarrassing photo. The runners-up prize will go to the member with most improved style since the original photo.

Had a bit of a dig around and could only find one old photo unfortunately. This is probably from back in the early/mid 90’s… skis, one piece, stackhat etc etc


And more recently as you can see I’ve given up the planks and the one piece..


although there has been one questionable moment in there.. womens size 8 jacket complete with shoulder pads haha

I’m guessing you’re referring to the fluro hat that I had on backwards.. only way it could work with goggles. Retro lifty day in whistler raspberry

I love how your name tag says “Finney” I didn’t realise that was your actual name lol.

I can’t really beat Mizu’s as I wasn’t skiing or boarding in the year I was born…

But here is my worst (No jacket/shirt down at perisher, on youtube now… for a friend’s 23rd video.) (Had to get some random Indian guy who looked like he had never seen snow in his life to take it because my friend thought it was stupid.)

And me on Skis

And me now.

Yeah it’s my surname but pretty much everywhere I’ve worked it’s always ended up with people using it instead of Michael so made sense to have it.
