January 6th- 13th… Spent and interesting week at Mount Snow, Vermont. It was my first time ever riding on the east coast so it was pretty cool to get to see some different terrain. Thankfully it wasn’t too icy.. actually got a little bit of a pow day and it kind of sucked because it made practice almost impossible to clear all of the jumps before prelims. The course for the second Dew stop I liked a lot better than the first, more features and some more options.
Prelims had some pretty crazy weather so I was stoked to hang in there and qualify 3rd for finals. We got lucky with some sunny weather last day and the course was actually super fun to ride when you had speed to clear everything. I met a ton of super cool people on that trip which was pleasant too. Also I had flown out with a fresh Ride DH 55 that I had never ridden before and brand new boots so I was a little hesitant hoping all my gear and everything would fit and work out okay and I was so super comfy and happy so that was a plus too. I ended up holding my 5th place down..
Monday the webcams looked like crap at Stevens but you would have never of guessed that it was probably one of the funnest day I’ve had yet this season. It was a nice NW sprinkle, soft snow, no one around but a few good homies.. days I live for. But we just had a rad session together.. today would have been sick too but they added crazy unnessicary pop to the kicker and it was bullet proof firm …soo I hit it a few times but I figured I would keep my self safe for more important priorities. Hopefully it is good tomorrow…
