My son was making a lot of good decisions today. For instance, on our first run (we got on the chair maybe 5 after 8 - Steve, though I didn't realize it at the time, we probably saw you on Red Line then) we started down Wizard with the intent of doing Broomstick > Heart of Magician. We got to the top of ("`Upper' not `Master'") Magician and he suggested we do that. "Are you sure?" I said, to him though maybe to myself a little bit too - this too I'd never attempted before. "Yeah." We were third and fourth tracks on Upper and it was unreal. What a warmup run ... Then at the bottom of Upper the other two tracks veered off to Black Line so we had first tracks for Heart of Magician. Upper+Heart = run of the season for me, so far.

That mank line did move up the mountain as the day wore on but even so I was having fun letting the '09 Gotamas handle the crud. By far the best test of those boards thus far and they passed with flying colors - I'm feeling really dialed in on them now.
