We hiked out for an epic pow run

This is out front of Magum P.I's house. He swam here in almost every episode.

Take me back there now!

Done and Dusted

Yesterday I arrived back in Australia after a really fun four months in the States. Unfortunately on my 4th last day I had a fall in the pipe and fractured my scapula. Its nothing major, I'm in a sling now but in 6-8 weeks it will be fully healed and good to go. The worst part is my dad and I have a surf trip booked for the 1st May and now I won't be able to surf. Looks like I'll just be working on my tan.

The mountains record how many days you ride when they scan your pass each day. These are my stats for this season.

Breckenridge, Colorado: 45 days
Copper Mtn, Colorado: 20 days
Keystone Mtn, Colorado: 1 day
Canada Olympic Park: 3 days
Boreal Mtn, California: 2 days
Beaches in Hawaii: 13 days

Stay tuned for some photos.

Miss Superpark

Earlier this week I went along with Bex to Miss Superpark at Keystone. It's a week long event where girls ride the specially made park and get photos for Snowboarder magazine. Have a look at these shots I took. Some of the features were pretty intimidating.

Sweet snow to the spring

So much for warm and sunny spring weather. I woke up this morning to see Breck had received a foot of fresh snow overnight, so I got up the hill early and had some pretty fun runs until it got tracked out. It's still coming down outside now so it could be another powder day tomorrow.
Here is a few shots from today. Unfortunately my battery died during the first run.

20 seconds in pipe

Today was another lovely spring day at Breck. Jarryd left his Go Pro running on the side of the pipe and I got caught on candid camera a few times.

Back 9

Today was great! It was sunny and really warm, especially hiking the pipe. Its Spring break here in the USA so the lift lines were packed but luckily the pipe was just about empty. 

The best part about today was that I learnt a new trick, a Back 9. I was so happy! I was a little nervous going for the first one but I just spun harder than a back 5 and it came around. Stoked! 

This video is from my third attempt.

Good weather at last

The past week in Breckenridge hasn't been ideal. We haven't even been able to ride the pipe because of the snow and lack of visibility.  However it finally came good yesterday afternoon and today I awoke to a perfect blue sky. I'm hoping it will stay this way for the rest of my time here.

Also be sure to check out the Burton US Open thats happening this week. You can watch it live here http://opensnowboarding.com/Coverage.aspx?openid=USO
My good friend and housemate Rebecca Sinclair from NZ qualified 4th for the halfpipe finals on Saturday. Go Bex!!!!
