Wow! That Ken Yocum is smokin! I want to see who is behind those goggles and powder...Look at that form!

Really. This story had to have been in for 36 hours. And still, we get a sentence that says "blow their ski tips."
Wowza. I'm for SURE skiing Solitude.

Yeah, he sure can ski, can't he? Right. Memo to Ken: This isn't 1974. Skis aren't 55mm wide from tip to tail. If you sit back any farther you're going to break the tails off those things.

And picture #2: The caption is wrong. That's not Honeycomb. Way to go Deseret News.

Is this Ken Yocum OK or did he hit the tree? Ken, if you are out there let us know if you are still alive or what hospital you are at so we can send flowers!

That's why they call you Smoke'em Yocum! And please - people should be asking if the tree is ok!

Ken! You have come along way from your days of being the best bowler out there. Your form is fabulous, and you make it look easy.
