TRUE STORY OF CRAIG COKER AND LINE

TO HELP ALL OF YOU UNDERSTAND MY SITUATION BETTER, I WILL TELL YOU THE TRUE FACTS OF WHAT IS GOING ON. YES, I AM NO LONGER WITH LINE. THE REASON FOR THAT, IS BECAUSE JAY AND I HAVE COME TO SOME DISAGREEMENTS IN RENEWING MY CONTRACT. OUR RELATIONSHIP OUTSIDE OF SKIING IS VERY GOOD AND THAT WON’T CHANGE. REGARDING WHAT IM SKIING ON NOW IS UNDICIEDED. I HAVE HAD OFFERS. BUT I WANT TO MAKE SURE THE NEXT SKI COMPANY I RIDE FOR IS THE ONE FOR THE REST OF MY CAREER. AS FAR AS THE INTERVIEW QUESTION THAT JAY ANSWERD. I CANNOT FULLY AGREE WITH WHAT HE SAID. I FEEL I AM BY NO-MEANS NON-PROFFESSIONAL. SKIING IS MY LIFE, MY JOB, APART OF MY EVERYDAY LIVING. I AM CONSTANTLY TRAVELING AND DOING EVERYTHING I CAN TO BEST FOFILL MY SPONSORS NEEDS. I DO HAVE A HUGE GOAL/MISSION TO ACCOMPLISH. I WILL BE COMPETING IN ALL THE BIG COMPS. I WILL CONTINUE TO FILM WITH LEVEL 1 AND SHOOT WITH FREESKIER/SKI TIME. I AM NOW ON A VERY BUSY SCHEDUAL AND ITS STARTING TO FEEL AS THO IT WILL BE DOUBLE THE TRAVEL AS LAST YEAR. THANKS FOR YOUR TIME,
SEE YOU ON THE HILL!

WELL PART OF THAT IS TRUE. BY ALL MEANS LINE MAKE A GREAT SKI. I WISH I COULD HAVE STAYED, ESPECIALLY THE RELATIONSHIP IVE HAD WITH THEM. BUT, AS EVERY PERSON NEEDS IN LIFE IS INCOME. THIS IS WHAT I DO FOR A LIVING. AND I CAN NOLONGER AFFORED TO STAY WITH SOMEONE THAT CANNOT SUPPORT ME TO THE FULL EXTENT. AND NO IM NOT TRYING TO SELL OUT AS SOME WOULD PUT IT. I WISH COULD DO THIS FOR JUST FUN. BUT THEN IF I DID I WOULD BE ON THE STREETS NOWHERE.
