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.

packing to leave to go to breckenridge

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.
