It would seem that I’m headed to Steamboat Springs, CO! I’ve heard about Steamboat for years, and now I’m finally going to get to check it out. It’s the place Wil from 120DaysOfPowder.com ran off to. Just watch his videos for a while and you’ll get all fuzzy warm inside dreaming about the powder drenched… Read more »

Winter Park Pictures
I posted pictures from our trip to Winter Park over on DallasSnowboarders.com. Our photo album isn’t the most intuitive software around, but they’re there regardless. Enjoy.
Back From Winter Park: iRide Cap In Hand
So we had a fantastic time in Winter Park. The snow conditions weren’t the best – we had a lot of dust on crust. However, more of the mountain was open this year than when I went two years ago. I didn’t perform as well as I had hoped. I wanted to try a 180… Read more »
Here We Go, Off To Winter Park
It’s the day of the trip – finally. It’s always been the day of the trip, in my mind. It’s approaching on 11:00. I was up early this morning. I cooked myself a yummy breakfast, washed all the dishes, cleaned the counters, washed up the laundry, and took out the trash. I’ve got most of… Read more »

From here, it’s low-weight/high-reps, lotsa cardio, and a slightly better diet. My body isn’t the only thing I want to… Read more »
14 Days and Counting
Well, I’ve got about 14 days until the snowboarding trip. A friend of mine linked me to and entry on Wil Everts’ blog called Day 45: Morning Commute. She sent me there to see the video on the page… knowing it would get me stoked for my trip. The first part is some snazzy lift… Read more »
