i had one of those days today, it was so nice, it snowed about a foot and a half. we built a jump that was pretty big. i didnt ride away any of my tricks bescuase you cant really land switch in that much snow, but i was nailing these misty 5 safety grabs, and i was doing some flat spins. it felt pretty good. i love these kind of days

I landed my first 900 today, it was in a competition too. I was so stoked, landed it perfectly clean, not a flinch on the landing. Didn't win though, because the judges judged by distance rather than by the trick (and I only went 45 feet). What the fuck kind of big air competition judges by distance? It was just a goddamn huckfest. My first trick was a lui kang 180 (56 feet), and the second was the 45-foot 900. The winner was a guy who did an 80-foot mute grab and CRASHED, then did an 85-foot screamin' seamen, kicked his ski off in midair, and ate shit hardcore. He WON- and crashed on both of his tricks, while I stuck both of mine perfectly, and with mad style too (if I may compliment myself). No one else in the division even came close, one guy tried a 720 and crashed. I didn't even place. Fuckhead judges- WHO THE FUCK JUDGES A BIG AIR COMPETITION BY DISTANCE?

Sorry. Rant is over.

the worst thing is, thats basically what it was. We were all joking about how someone should have brought their cross-country skis and done some distance jumping, lol. There were no inverts allowed, either. So after the comp me and a bunch of other skiers hung out and flipped the jump, just to spite the judges.

Just to prove the insanity of it all- a sponsored snowboarder threw a switch corked 720 mute, and didn't place. It was the biggest snowboarder spin, and the only one to go off-axis.

The jump was a medium-sized lip, and this huge wide landing slope down below it. The winning skier was the 82-ft screamin seamen crash guy, and the winning snowboarder busted a HUGE 100-ft nose grab.

i learned to 3 saftey and 3 in the pipe yesterday. and to grind better, but the rails at snoqualmie are way short, so they are easy.
