I have recently been informed that Bernie Joponie has passed away. He helped develop the freeride scene in western canada. He helped in the development of riders like Hulio Martini, and Wesley Grobowich. He keyed terms like 'whoa, that line is a crazy big bitch' and 'the size of that air made my grandma have an orgasm'. So next time you ride a chairlift or sit in a lodge, remember Bernie built it. Later Bernie.
