Key Stone on -25 Degrees days!

Today on 31st of December (New Years Eve) all the TSC crew went to KeyStone and it was -25 degrees to -30 degrees. When we got out and started riding after the first run down to the park Declan VP was getting Frostbite on his nose and everyone was just cold. After 3 runs we all went in because everyone was just really cold and my hands was getting a bit of frostbite on it and my toes to. After lunch we went out again and as we got out we were still cold but we lasted around 5 runs and we started to get frostbite again so we went in and then we went home and now I'm chilling at home and eating dinner and later going to see fireworks for New Years Eve.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Sunny Day In Keystone!!

Today on the 8th of December Me and all the other TSC Crew headed off to Keystone for the day, Then to woodward which didn't happen because we were to late. Today at Keystone in the morning we did some turning and skills training down Moguls, then at about 10:30 we went to check out the park. It was really good while the jumps weren't slow and then when the jumps got slow we just did rails. Today out of my goals I got back: backside 360, back 270 on to flat box, cab 180 nose press back 180 out, and frontside 360.
It was a long and hot day as the weather temp got up to 5 Degrees C which is 40 Farrenheight.
Here are some pics of me today getting back stuff as I have only been on snow for 3 days.

Back In Breckenridge!!

On sunday the 5th of December I arrived in Denver after a long and hard flight. We got to Breckenridge at around 5pm and then we went shopping at super target if we needed something. Yesterday on the 6th of December we went out riding for the first time in 3 months and it felt a bit wierd. Then after 3 runs we went to the park and going off jumps, it was awesome. Today I'm getting ready to go snowboarding for a powder day with 1 foot of fresh snow and it's still snowing.

World Rokie Fest!!

On friday the 31st of july i went to Perisher in NSW for the World Rookie Fest slopestyle. I got some good results for it which im proud of. I came 3rd in the year 1996 and under. The trick that got me 3rd was a backside 360 melon and a frontside 180 nose. On my second run i went frontside 360 indy and backside 540 melon but i overshot the backside 540 and just fell. (if i landed i would of gotten 1st) and then i came back down to melbourne and getting ready for the next trip which is the australian junior series for 1 week then i got the rip curl freeride event on the 12th of august - 20th of august.

Good Weekend At Mt Hotham!!

Last week on the 22nd of July I was traveling to Mt Hotham from Mt Buller with TSC. I entered 3 competitions at Mt Hotham, which was a slopesyle, big air and a boarder cross. On the 23rd of July it was suppose to be the slopestyle comp but they couldn't get a jump made so they made it a rail style comp which had 2 runs and then 2 runs for finals. On the rail which made me come 1st I did: cab 180 to nose press to frontslide boardslide, then on the down bar I did front lip nose slide pretzel (270 out). The next day on the 24th of July was a big air competition. The jump was about 10 feet long and the finals were at 7:00pm under lights which I got into. I ended up coming 3rd with a backside 540 melon. The next day was the day we were leaving so we had to wake up early and pack our stuff so we woke up at 6:00 am and getting ready for a 8:45 practise because we still had 1 more comp left which was a boarder cross. I got the fastest time in my division but when it came to 2 people going down at once I ended up losing and I finished 3rd at the end. So I got 3 podiums, 1 first (rail comp) and 2 thirds (boarder cross and big air).

First Sponsor

Today was a great day for me I had a meeting with Bolle at 2:30 and it was a great outcome. I got a new pair of sunglasses and I have to choose some goggles and I will be receiving the contract shortly. Now that I am Sponsored I know i have to keep up all my hard training for the years to come.

Comming 2nd in Gatorade at keystone

On the 23rd there was a slopestyle at keystone and junior's was at the end of the day and the weather got really bad like windy and really slow and all the snowboarders couldn't make it. So the junior's got cancelled so they put it on for the next day. It was just as bad the next day so they cancelled the mens finals so they got judged on the score they got on there 1st run and 2nd run. They cancelled the junior slopestyle again so they just did a rail jam for 1 hr, as it was ending my 3rd last trick was 1 foot back 180 swivel to boardslide with a back 270 off 1 foot, as they are calling last trick I attempted a 50-50 tamdog off the end of the box. After that Iwent inside I was so close to getting frost bite and got some pizza and then went to presentations and they called my name up for 2nd.

vail slopestyle comp

just came back from the slopestyle comp at vail and did good i fell on my first run going to big on my back 360 tail, then on the second run i went a bit smaller and stomped my run and came 1st. i got a eski, gatorad and a bag with a jumper a beanie and a scarf.

bad day in vail

We got up and left breckenridge by 7:30 am. as we were driving to vail we where going there to train for the gatorade slopestyle in vail as we got there we got our boots on and headed up the chair as we got to the park the jumps weren't that good so we did jump 1 then checked the others. then we came back up and did jump 1 and 2. jump 2 was smaller then jump 1 so every one over shot it. i did one speed check like every one else and i over shot and as i went up the lip i caught my toe edge and i landed flat on my face and i got my very first blood nose, knoked out and a concusion i was out for the rest of the day from doing one run and smashed all my goggles.

powder day in breckenridge

Today i had a powder day in breckenridge with TSC. We made a small jump over about 5 trees and where we landed was powder and about 20 ft gap for where we were landing. We also hiked for about 30 minute for some sweet powder up higher on the mountain and had a good time.
