RimmyJimmer Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 How and when did we find out that baselayers was jj?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dAVe80 Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 (edited) Proposed a toast to Baselayers in the pub tonight, to be met by confused looks. "Jenny Jones" I added, angry that people didn't realise who I was talking about. A collective smile grew, "Oh the snowboarder you mean?" They said. "Yeah, that was awesome," I think it then sunk in what she's done. This is gonna sound like I'm taking the piss, but she's up there with Eddie The Eagle now.

tonyh29 Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 How and when did we find out that baselayers was jj?? When she told us Tbh I think she told us she was from Bristol and a snowboarder and for a website that can track Lerners private jet , finding her true identity was easier than working out that Hong Kong Phooey is really Penry the mild mannered janitor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sie Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 (edited) I'm sure I've seen baselayers go by Jenny Jones on here in the past as that is who I immediately thought of when I heard the news. Jenny, did you ever have your now less famous than you American talkshow host namesake as your avatar? Edited February 10, 2014 by Sie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThunderPower_14 Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Brilliant effort Jenny! I found myself more interested in a British woman medalling than I have with any of the Aussies thus far. Congratulations! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darrenm Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Just remember, I also didn't know you before you were famous. I'm pretty sure you've replied to me once on here before, that's good enough for me. Congratulations Jenny. You're bloody huge now you know. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hogso Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Add me to the list of people who have had slightly awkward conversations with people mentioned how you know Jenny from an internet messageboard She's already done massive massive things for British snowboarding, and you totally deserve the nationwide recognition you're receiving! I don't think the X-Games feats will ever be recognised on a nationwide level (not just for Jenny I mean, for any British competitor - look at Jamie Bestwick the BMX rider, what he has accomplished is just insane but how many people know who he is?), so how fulfilling must it be to have he eyes of the whole nation on you! Kind of hope we don't get any more medals in anything so as not to take the spotlight of our Jen... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eames Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 ^^Are you drunk? Sadly not. I was in a freezing garage waiting on an MOT. Cold fingered phone typing. Normal standards have now been resumed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YLN Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 They might bring her out onto the pitch to show off the medal at Villa park at the next home game. If they're letting Grant Holt onto it I don't see why not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AValon Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Morning after. Do you have the remotest idea what you have done? Slopestyling has landed (pun intended) well and truly in the UK and its all thanks to you. If you never strap on that board again, you will go down in British Olympic history as the first athlete from these shores to win a medal...A MEDAL FFS...on snow. Awesome Jones. Your parents must be the proudest people in the country right now. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
