weekend shredfest.... not as we planned

Welllll.........
Friday night was pretty cold... Chad, Spenny and I did a little filming just to check some shots for the next day. Fell pretty good on this cannon rail thing. Went to the hotel, had some lunchables, some beers, and some hot tub.
Saturday started off strong. Got to the hill a little later than expected but it was all good. Dan showed up a little later. We did a few runs then decided we wanted to race through the little boarder-cross course. Well, Dan and Chad had a little collision... resulting in Dan breaking his wrist:


Chad and Dan spent the rest of the day at the (new and improved) hospital getting x-rays while Spenny and I filmed some little stuff around the park....
It's really hard to ride knowing one of you buddies is out though. Tough to get motivated.
But anyway, we hope for a quick recovery for Dan.
Maybe some video clips soon.
Found one little clip:

I'll put some more together tomorrow.

X-Games slopestyle final tomorrow. Go Eero!! (But I'd still be stoked if Torstein, Halldor, Mikkel or Chas won (or pretty much anyone haha))

ready for the weekend already

This weekend should be pretty awesome.
We're plannin out a 2 day trip to the nut.
Hopefully we all get some good shots.

Also, X-Games are this weekend. Hell yes
Lets go Eero, Halldor, Jussi, Andreas, Chuck G, Mikkel and Scotty in slopestyle
(pretty much anyone but Shaun White)
And lets go everyone but Shaun White in the pipe. Louie, Peetu, Mitranis, Scotty, Danny kass, etc.

Bummer about KP and Danny Davis. Get well soon fellas.

Rain Sucks, Jibbing is Fun

With all this rain we've had, we've lost a lot of snow,
but spenny and I did what we could.
We found the only patch of snow on the only hill in town and set up the jib.

It wasn't really worth filming anything, but we filmed one trick each just to make something for the blog... for anyone who actually reads it... so pretty much just for dan haha

finally have our own rail

chip and i built this rail the other day and i set it up in my girlfriends backyard.
ill move it down to champaign and have it set up behind my apartment soon!

Heres a little preview of the building process and the first few hits.
Its little, but good for practice!
