Part 2 Dropping into a sparsely covered, side-country booter. Why havent I researched a better weather app for Sweden? I am sure my French friends partied until 730 or 8. Waking up around 9 this morning brought quite a surprise. Nothing serious, but enough to get outside. After chiefing one of the dirtiest spliffs with blondie, I grabbed my planks and headed out. Thus, my lip was about as sketchy as my memories of last night....
We arise to three feet of fresh snow, and the parking lot has yet to be plowed. One of my friends decides to take the tree-line, the other takes straight to the face. We unload the chair, and depart our separate way’s after a quick fist-bump all around. My mind, my body, everything is completely at peace. My skis turn straight down the mountain, and I drop in. I settle my speed, and thrown a slow three to get a full view of the landscape....
The first thing you think of about skiing in Japan is DEEP POWDER, amazing culture and great food. Well, yes, Japan is all that and more, the place is simply incredible. Luckily for us, the last 2 days brought in 40cm new snow so that 3m mark was hit. 17 days and 3m of snow… that’s crazy! Its not always all fun and games though. For 2 days straight we were shut off the slopes because winds were too strong....

I will admit this is pretty annoying, and a heated subject in the skiing community. It sent me flipping and I was sure I killed her. I felt terrible but I was angry. It was totally my fault and since then I am way more careful; lesson learned....

The Crew We brought the whole gang down to NH. From Newschoolers.com Jason Mousseau, Sam Turner, Aaron Lu and Travis Towsley made the trip. We were there shooting photos, hanging out and sessioning the park. Mike Dandurand and Seb Eaves of the Tabarnak Pack also rolled in with Guillaume Perusse from Cresus Design. Stept filmer/Loon Loc Connor Scofield also joined us for some Friday night shenanigans and shredding. The most important member of the Newschoolers crew was, of course, the newly-returned Drama Llama....
It was hands down the best day I have spent skiing so far. I arrived at the mountain nice and early, and wandered my way to the Paul Bunyan room. I managed to beat the NS crew there, and only NS user Nacho_Macho_Man managed to beat me there. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FeaKovEu9FM After getting my videos shot, I headed back down to the lodge. I could see the llama on the deck from a mile away....
Sander Hadley, an individual to say the least. What makes this guy the one we see on our multiple screens we own? Sander on powpatrol Moment you got hooked on skiing? Fruit, sunscreen cell phone, keys and hopefully my pass. What’s it like being in Sweetgrass, arguably the trippiest movie crew in skiing and snowboarding? With Zack Giffin’s carpentry skills, we were able to build just about anything we wanted....

Full lockdown security in Sochi; Armed escorts for U.S. Military and teams developing evacuation plans and practices. The Russian Military is on an anti-jihad jihad. The Olympic torch arrives in Volgograd today. Where the two previous attacks were carried out by the aggressing terrorists. Where in between lies the Chechnya area. The same region that produced theBoston bombers. I think it would be unwise to call it a bluff. Other target was a train station....
It is by no means fact-checked for accuracy. I welcome any corrections, c’mon submit them in the comment section. A lot of questions have been asked about the upcoming Winter Olympic Games in Sochi. There’s no doubt about itpark skiing has picked a controversial Olympic Games for its controversial Olympic debut. These requirements have been met by more than enough riders to make things interesting. A maximum of 108 freeskiers will be able to compete....
Part 1 Nick Goepper dropping on the Olympic slopestyle course. Looking straight ahead, I can see the official listening to his radio. I wonder what he sees down there. In my field of vision lie the first two rail features and the lip of the first jump. Seeing this calms my nerves, but also reminds me of what the next 60 seconds will bring. The days of lapping Perfect North seem like they may have been in another lifetime....
