The final destination will remain a mystery and will be based on optimal snow conditions. Ruf hails from the Alps in Austria. This forced Gigi to look beyond the usual groomed run at his local hill. Gigi began looking into the backcountry near his home and on the mountain. Fast-forward to today and you have one of the most well rounded snowboarders in the world. He has big plans this year to ?...

If you haven’t seen it allready, double-check you do. I was wrong, this just made my day! I am going to Woodward to jump on the trampolines and work on tricks all night. Together with Gaute Silseth And Espen Bergh. Two really talented skiers with a lot to teach me! Can’t wait!

The snowboard students of Windells Academy enjoyed their time last week at the Mt. Snow stop of this years Revolution Tour. The U.S. Snowboarding Revolution Tour is the top junior event tour in the country. It brings athletes together from across the country to identify the top juniors.

Windells Academy students Lyman Currier and Mike Mochan competed in the freeski slopestyle event. Lyman Currier took 2nd stomping a 9 to 540 to switch 5, and ending with a rodeo. It was a very fun event and a great sight to see for all. Windells summer digger Jason Arens of South Lake Tahoe became champion with a first place medal! Way to go Windells!

Hans left today, and Marius Kjlseth moved in together with me and Backe. I took the day off from skiing today, since I had an concussion yesterday. Think I should be good for skiing tomorrow. Aren’t we alike. Same cup, cereals and mobiles we don’t use over here. The can be reheated by 12 v charging in the car. Haha, gotta love Wallmart. Paul the boss at Snowshoe motel, where we are staying is the MAN!...

The sun has been out, the park looks sick, and the jump line is bangin! Below are some pics. Don’t forget to keep on daily updates at SS Terrain Park And a build vid. Night Builds in the Park from SS Terrain Park on Vimeo.

College students love Facebook. It’s also a great place to share photos and keep in touch with friends. I’m stating the obvious here, I know. The problem with Facebook is, it quickly becomes cluttered with people that you barely even know. The easiest solution is to just unfriend them. I believe that my core gripe with Facebook boils down to a single design decision. A design decision that Twitter nailed perfectly: one-sided friendships....

So, i just realized it has been long time since my last post in here. but some of you still might be interested in some of the stuff i write and post. so keep checking back. hope you liked it Simon

Here in the central Colorado Rockies we’ve been waiting for snow for a while. On this day, to be sure, it did not come. You all should try it some day. Don’t ride the same lift twice. You’ll be amazed at what you might find. We hiked up to the Peak 8 Summit expecting nothing but a great view and some wind blown ice. It ended up being the best run of the day....

Yo it’s Woodsy and B-Paul checkin' in,   Halifax, Woodsy met Steve. drrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrive… Quebec, Met Paul. Ottawa, Met Jen. Plus we also had a bit of a best trick competition with the local riders.

With some downtime between events, the TELUS Park crew at Big White has found some time to get the snowcats in to the park for builds and the guys have been making the most of it. Check out the photographic evidence.New pole tap features on the left, new setup for the black PVC pipe in the middle and new street style down box on the rightCloser look at the new pole tap, can’t wait to get back out and shred this!...

Lovely morning for sure. Frisco at it’s best. New snow, storm allmost over, and sun! Met up with Pekka Hysalo at the bus. Everyone who claimed to ski Keystone today failed. I was the only Norwegian. Keystone had some new snow, and the features are a little weird and funky. Step-up do skew snow-box to step-down. Last of three big jumps in Area-51 park, Keystone. Roll-over with steep landing. Second one, a little poppy to slightly step-down, but really good to learn stuff on....
