2011 is done and not a moment too soon. The ridge of high pressure is entrenched and continues to push everything north while we languish in biking weather. Pretty ironic that the places in the mid-west that I learned to ski are having 12 inch reports. Pulled out the bike again, sad state of affairs on the first day of 2012. Admittedly, I’ve been looking at the places that have snow....

The air is fresher in Oregon.En route to Mt. Hood Meadows, my choice mountain when in the Oregon territory.Oregon City.

Good morning! It’s a beautiful day in Storlien, Sweden. I’m working on my cab turns for learn cab-spins on jumps. It’s booring, yet fun at the same time. Looks like this day will be a good one. This picture was taken yesterday, one of the guys that learned the magic backflip. Stoked to see them stoked. I know in fact how big of a feeling that is. See you on snow, peace!...

Sounds like a pretty good time? For this week’s Take me back Tuesday we remember Technine waterballoon surprise. They then piled into the top of the camp van and drove slowly into campus. Everyone had a good time!

So I won’t! Here’s their blurb: Life sure is a very strange occurrence. We know two things for certain, that we are born � that we will die. In between these two knowings are what we call a human life. It?s up to you how you want your life to be and what it shall become. One of the main ingredients for finding success in life is to use your heart and think through it....

Yesterday was kind of a laidback day, but I did however get some things done.  Also, since we had got some new snow overnight, I re-shaped the railyard-kicker. True American style, the only way of building things in snow. Turned out pretty cool. Today I have had the most fun in a long time skiing. It was kind of the safe way to learn new stuff. I went to Storlien alone, but ended up beeing the coach for 15 younger skiers....

Now that 2012 has begun, we decided that we would set a few resolutions for the new year. Below, ten things that we will be doing in 2012 to have the funnest year ever!10. Perfect our backside 180. One of the most classic tricks in snowboarding is also the most fun. During Session 6 last summer, the Rome Team taught us how to do this awesome trick. Skate every day...

2011 is almost a memory. A retrospect of photos that have told the story.

They lay in wait in the cold womb of a forgotten glacier hidden away on the outskirts of Montreal. Muffled steps could be heard from above and crystal-like snow floated gently upon their backs with mesmerizing grace. The scout had returned safely. They started to shimmy forwards with different, yet stylish movements. Those layered with multiple tall tees acted as damage-soaking shields at the back of the surprisingly uniform group....

I listened to a lot of music. With great services like Spotify and iTunes Match recently released, I found myself listening to music constantly. I continued to explore new genres and, as a result, new artists. Many of the artists in my Top 50 are new to my music library this year. Top 50 Albums of 2011 1. Florence + the Machine – Ceremonials 2. Nero – Welcome Reality 3....

Just came home after a LONG day in Sweden, again. Two days, two different ski-resorts in Sweden. 400 km in car really takes the toll on you. Especially when you ski hard for 4 hours in between. To tired to post some pictures right now, but they will be out later tonight or tomorrow.
