					<description><![CDATA[It was hard to get stoked on today&#8217;s finals after getting my gear stolen last night but I made it to the mountain just in time to watch the final runs of practice.  The conditions weren&#8217;t as nice as yesterday, overcast with some snowfall during today&#8217;s finals.  From the parking lot, you couldn&#8217;t miss the massive superpipe at Copper. [singlepic id=7062 w=400 h=300 float=] After hiking up to the bottom of the superpipe I watched as Shaun White just finished his warm-up runs and captured this moment that says a lot. He&#8217;s talking with Keir Dillon and all eyes on him.  It certainly will be that way for a while as the Olympics are coming up soon. [singlepic id=7060 w=400 h=267 float=] I ended capturing this shot of him hiking up the pipe, nothing else except pipe in the vision and a crowd of people waiting for the finals. [singlepic id=7059 w=267 h=400 float=] It was rough to watch today&#8217;s finals, a lot of the riders had issues with making a clean run.  They only had two runs to get on the podium, so it looked like a lot of nerves from the riders.  But there were a lot of [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I made my way down to Copper Mountain in Colorado to watch the first stop of the Grand Prix and a chance for riders to make their way to the 2010 Olympics in Vancouver.  I missed the women&#8217;s qualifiers yesterday but today I was able to watch the men&#8217;s qualifiers and tomorrow I&#8217;ll see the final best riders throw down in the superpipe. There was a total of 87 male snowboarders in three heats spread out from 9am to 2pm and two runs that determined everything for them.  Their best score mattered most and at the end of the day, the best of those riders will continue onto the finals. Shaun White took home 1st place [singlepic id=7032 w=400 h=300 float=] Louie Vito took home 2nd place and stomped his double cork. [singlepic id=7029 w=400 h=300 float=] Greg Bretz took home 3rd for the qualifiers tweaking big! [singlepic id=7024 w=400 h=300 float=] Thanks to Pat Bridges for telling me I shouldn&#8217;t miss the Grand Prix contest, because of him I made my way down to check it out. It was insane to see the amplitude of the tricks and be surrounded by riders I&#8217;ve heard of for years. I ran [&#8230;]]]></description>
