So I just read the article, it's pretty good. It sheds a lot of light on what happen and what he went through. It's written by him, not someone else telling his story.

i fell soo bad for Kye Peterson he must have felt like shit for sooo long after that but its awesome to see CR back skiing that guy is the closest thing to a god in this sport coming back from near death to almost as good as he was before hes seg in 7SD was so emotional at the whistler premire it made people cry and he got a long standing ovation when it finished

he is god, i saw him at coc he was fucking funny dude, and he was throwing cork 9s the irony of it all though is that in believe hes talking"if i hit my head ill die" and at camp he was wearing a tee shirt on his head instead of a helmet and cork 9ing the 90 foooter?

yeah, like the guy said above. he had a sick speech/commentary in his section of Seven Sunny Days.  He talked about how it is hard to re-learn cork 10s when you're having hard time learning cork 5s

he said its trippy trying to re learn 5s when at aged 15 he was spinning 14s...
i thought the speech in believe was too cheesy though.

hugely impressive comeback though, but not as incredible as marc andre

Buy MSP's Seven Sunny Days or Tanner Hall's Believe...he skis pretty well in both films and offers some of his perspective on his comeback.

oh yeah. my bad, i was trying to remember what he said off the top of my head.  Although Andre's comeback is amazing, i owuld've say it's any less impressive though.  both had to relearn nearly every aspect of thier lives.

I was talking to the guys at 4frnt and they were telling me he is in the process of making one right now.
I can't wait to see the direction he goes with it.  he has sooo many options.
