Finally good to go

So it turns out I broke my mandible in two places when I crashed on New Years Day. After a trip down to the hospital in Vancouver to get my mouth wired shut, I returned to Whistler and spent most of my time sleeping, rock climbing and hanging out at Merlins, the bar at the base of Blackcomb.

x-rays. Can you see where it broke? The doctors couldn't at first

 

Broke my face

Today we went out to Flute to build a jump and work on flips and linkin loops. This one didn't pan out so well and I ended up in the clinic with a hole in my face.

Big hole!

First Post

Alright! So here is my first post on my first blog. Now that I am living in Whistler, I figured it would be nice for people at home in Vancouver to see what I am getting up too.

I am looking for a pretty action packed winter and already have a couple trips lined up and freeski competitions this season. On Sunday I leave for Kicking Horse with David and Patrick for a couple of days followed by the Freeskiing World Tour Qualifier stop in Revelstoke Jan 5-10th.



My new skis, Volkl Wall and Volkl Gotama


I want to throw a shout out to Michael at Marker/Volkl/Dalbello for all the great gear he set me up with for the season. It is much appreciated!

Got a touring set up for the season, pair of Volkl Katanas with Marker Barons on them so its going to be a great season.

Keep checking back. I will be trying to keep this blog as up to date as possible. Pray for snow!
