The sun never came out, other than that it was a fun day.

Not the best jump of the day by Greg but give you a good view of the distance between ramp and landing -

So I was really bummed at first while I looked at gm's post thinking that I missed out on a awesome photoshoot (GREAT PICS BY THE WAY, quick on that shutter!) and then I scrolled down and saw steveo's video...AWESOME.

Now I have proof I can survive me some bumpy times :)

Cant be said enough how much fun I had with all you guys today and appreciate you letting me join in on the fun even if i only ride a single plank!

...also killer track you picked steveo, who dosn't love the dead!

Got out for a little bit after 6. Still soft, but couldn't see anything after the sun went down, little different then pow bumps on a bluebird day yesterday.

Be back Thursday, gonna try to get to and leave work early. Then just step and slip after the sun goes down.

The sun never came out, other than that it was a fun day.

Seems to be the theme for this Gunny season.


Sweet vid. Too funny. Horn footy: "I'll edit that out."

"Someone go"

Cant be said enough how much fun I had with all you guys today and appreciate you letting me join in on the fun even if i only ride a single plank!

You're always welcome Cory. Nice getting in there. You should compete on Sat.

This report makes me want to leave work early on thursday to ski sundown.

Be there Thursday, late morning to mid afternoon. Return trip on Friday too.

my back and neck have totally stiffened up from that crash. I feel like i need a spine adjustment. or some serious pain meds.

The backpack jump was not good. Landed squarely on the camera in my pocket. Helluva upper thigh bruise shaping up. Guess I overshot...

Had lots of fun today. Sun would have completed it, but oh well....there's always Thursday. Jumps are mint. Nice pop and good landings. Tried some combos with epic spastic results. Had to bust out the nossack instead for old time's sake. Most impressed with Brian today - he took more air today than I've ever seen.
