Great news for our team rider and friend. Skier James Farmer from Mt. Baldy CA. Has spoken his 1st words since last Easter Sunday. As many of you know, James has been in a coma since Easter as a result of a big jump gone wrong while sessioning at Bear Mountain in Big Bear.

Today He looked up at his Father and said " Hi Dad ".
His Dad about fell on the floor. It has been so long, and We know now That James is on his way back from this major head injury. We are so stoked for him and his Family. For all of you here on NS who gave all the great words and vibes...
Thank you NS.... Thank You! Its a great day!
