It's getting to that time of year again!  I guess post weather reports, openings, comp dates, premiers, your claims, pictures, edits or anything you want here.


To a good season here in Minnesota/Wisconsin/Iowa!

Its actually pretty sick in my opinion. When I was there tuesday you could hit the three jump line and have enough speed for the bigger bottom jump, so 4 pretty nice jumps in a row. But if its snowing at all or conditions are bad with wind its almost impossible to hit the jumps, with a nice sunny day its a pretty sick time though

This season so far I haven't gone on newschoolers too much but I landed a bunch of new tricks:

Cork 7 tail, 9 tail, 10, almost 12 <--- didn't land but close

Left spins up to 5, Switch misty 9, Switch rodeo 5, Switch backie, dub back, died on a dub cork but attempted, Switch front, Rodeo 5, Flat 5 and 7, front flip off an urban, switch 450 on, switch up pretz 450 out.

So far i'm very very happy with my season and I just got a GoPro so hopefully dropping an edit soon.

Trollhaugen. All I have to say. You guys seriously have to come out and check it out. Every set up we have had this year is the best set up we have ever had.

Got front and back side 630s off the poop tube at troll today. and also went to Dunn County Snowpark and won a rail jam they put on. Too bad it was only me and 1 other skier competing haha

New icon, y'all. Wild tomorrow. Shooting with the T1i. And with daylight this time. Night shooting is annoying.

Afton fucking sucked today. Lips onto rails were hardly existent. You had to actually jump. Everything just sucked.

Jumping onto rails isnt all that bad its just like doing urban and i would actually prefer it if they did that all the time.

Well yeah, sorry I didn't explain it very well. I like it like that too, don't get me wrong but you're jumping from basically flat ground it get a little annoying after a while.

you would hate trollhaugen then... but i honestly feel way more safe having to jump, then having to drop onto a feature like Hyland, or Afton.

Yeah, I know what you mean. I'm fine with jumping, but I felt that the park crew neglected fixing the lips.
