The Gap is Back

We got grey skies instead of the blue that makes the shots look so pretty. We found this rock split in half that had a little kick on the end. The video shots turned out pretty cool. Thank you to Brent Benson for donating these photos to the Saga Blog. I agree they have the best avacado burgers out.

Sun?s Out Gun?s Out.

Upon arrival it was Tyler Barnes and Steve Stepp, hey tones! Good flat down set up at the top of the run, Barnes agrees. Lip 270, hey correct me if i’m wrong Tyler. switch 7 blunt with sky accessories. He should just put his name on this hitching post after today. Steve Stepp was also there but like most mummies he is very elusive and remains un-photographed.

Swedish Open

I went home before it was even done. No need to push it when I was crashing whatever trick I tried. I love skiing, believe me! Slopestyle on the other hand, is a little more fun! Gotta go, 6 hours in a car is what’s up!

All-Time @ Brighton

Pretty much going to copy & paste this post from my buddy Parker’s blog. I’ve called Parker up a few times this season to help out filming me for Nimbus. It wasn’t anything unexpected though, because I read the storm forecast, so we went to work. J. Eichhorst and Hayden Price accompanied us and we headed out to the slackcountry. Some of us a lot more slowly than the others....

A Week of Pow in Tahoe!

We had multiplethings scoped out that we were hoping to bang out quickly....

Devils Face Crusher (incodent report-ish)

I wanted to go up to the apron and ski above everyone else. We rode back up supreme, cruised up the sidestep and then the boot pack. It was big and awkward. All went according to plan except the massive yard sale that followed the impact. I ended up leaving my pole in the landing and skiing down with one ski and one pole. My other ski was in Dan’s hands at the bottom of the run....

Goodbye Square Tips...

To get skin loops to fit properly over Moment’s signature square tips, I had to sand the corners down a bit. It ended up working very well, and I had perfectly functioning skins for the first post-season tour of the year up Granite with Tyler.
