Damn....   this breaks my heart.   This is an awesome skiing event that Salomon puts on.  They bring in pros to lead groups. The one up in Waterville was a lot of fun for Nips.  Well we for sure will be going to the one at Sno.

16 and under rider judged, hang in the park grom fest.  Nick Martini won the won at Waterville last year.  The divided about 30 kids into groups of 6 or so and rode around practicing tricks all train style.  Then narrowed it down at the end of the day for a showdown of types with the top ten...
