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!

Whistler Visit

I was thinking that because I needed to get out of the States, I would go back to my old hometown of Whistler, BC. It’s been about five years since I got to ride those mountains in the winter so it was time to visit. I honestly couldn't remember what to expect since it had been so long. According to my friends who still live there I came at the best time. Whistler just got dumped on finally so my first day of riding was a pow day. The leg pain was a nice reminder of how it feels to ride a real mountain. The second day was blue bird, so I got to ride park with my brothers and experience the best of both worlds on both Whistler and Blackcomb. It was really good to see all my old friends, I'm glad I finally got a chance to go back there. -Kara Rennie -Photos by Blake Payne

There's always so much going on at xgames and I want to see everyone so I forget to take pics. This is from my iPhone on the last day, the halfpipe, my VIP pass and the VIP lounge.

Tattoos

My friends, the triplets decided for their 18th birthday they would get tattoos of three sparrows. I decided to get mine as well, the cross. Thank you Brit for the skin work.
