Loveland 5/2/10

May 2nd, 2010

It’s hard to believe it’s May outside when there is a couple inches of new snow at your house, along the highway and falling at resorts around Colorado.  Loveland is a true freeriders mountain in Colorado with the open terrain and drops.  It’s off the beaten path for many skiers & snowboarders that drive by [...]

It’s closing weekend here in Steamboat and while tomorrow might be the last day for snowboarding, today was my last day at Steamboat since i’m going to skip out on tomorrow’s festivities to ride Breckenridge for a demo day.

Steamboat 4/9/10

April 9th, 2010

Today was the last ride break of the season, ride breaks are the reason I can get up on the mountain even though I work a full time Monday to Friday normal job.  It means instead of lunch, I can shred and I’ll definitely miss having that luxury out of the office each day.
I hit [...]

It’s hard to believe that in just a matter of days the mountain will close, my ride breaks will become lunch breaks and the snow will start to melt quickly bringing out colors other than white.  I’m sad that the season is ending but also ready for Steamboat to close which lets me move on.
I [...]

It’s hard to believe that even in April there are Winter Storm Warnings but last night we received another winter storm rolling through Steamboat delivering a powder day on the mountain this morning.
During the winter on a powder day you have to get to the gondola early to get in line and start getting the [...]

Steamboat 4/5/10

April 5th, 2010

This has been one interesting season for conditions on the mountain, there’s no guarantee to what the weather or snow will be like until you get up on the slopes.  Today was a really slow snow day on lower mountain, almost warm but not fully bluebird out and really hard to judge speed in spots, [...]

Steamboat 4/3/10

April 3rd, 2010

I came in late last night from dinner at the Carrigan house and ended up crashing hard till this morning.  During my hours of sleep, it snowed in town and delivered a couple new inches on the mountain that just got better as the snow kept falling during the day.
I’ve been rocking the C2 technology [...]
