Shit, shit, shit. I just realized that the live stream fro ski slope probably isn't going to have LVV considering Todd Richards is covering the NBC feed for snowboarding and some rando that doesn't know what's going on if calling the live extra stream...

Seriously. There's no tracks down that shit, tons in the bowl below, but nothing off the top. I hope some of these skiers start exploring the mountains after their events are done. Ski trip to Sushi anyone?

Plenty of excellent hotels and I'm sure the local 'dog stew' dish is worth the price. I'm down.

Just saw that Maggie Voisin is out with an ankle injury. Disappointed after how well she did at X-Games.

Craig is the man. In the US, it's only the online stream that the announcer sucks.

+ Saying funny stuff which is perfect.

It was pretty obvious how stressed he was when his brother was riding. He could barely comment his brother's run.

Theres no links to it, just my best friend gets some inside talk, as his dad is planning the event.

supposedly 2 huge kickers which are separated with a superpipe running inbetween and a whole bunch of other crazy shit going on all around.

Obviously you can't count on any of this, its just what I got told.

I had my doubts about the course. The rails were snug, but the sheer amount of gucci more than made up for it
