8 hours in Vegas

Normally I'm not really the spontaneous type but upon Jordie's arrival to SLC airport she suggested we make the trip to Las Vegas for our friends birthday. 6 hours later we were there and ready to party! I need not say more....

Airbag camp - Mt Washington, Vancouver Island

I'd been invited to join the Canadian National team on Vancouver Island to hit a very large jump and an airbag. Now this didn't seem like a good idea at first seeing as how I'd have to fly from SLC to Vancouver and travel to the island by myself... and the travel part was terrible, but the airbag was totally worth it. All of the invited riders stayed at the VIMC (Vancouver Island Mountain Center) right on Mt. Washington where the only services are a general store and a sushi restaurant, we took full advantage of both. It was fun to ride with everybody and see them try shit.

Contest Pow in Tahoe

I was recently visiting Tahoe for the Billabong Flaunt It Finals at Sierra. The weekend started off sunny and warm so I didn't expect a snow day the next day. This led to postponing the contest until the following day which resulted in a pow day. After the pow day I got in Whistler last month, this will be my 2nd pow day of the season. Contest pow day... so fun!
