I just heard from the rail builder at Steamboat that there will be 14 new rails and they all will be pretty big, and the ones from last year will be up too. They are also throwing in a new sound system and are expanding all across the bowl on the one side of the park. So sick!

Holla back at me....gina gmeiner

whoah...So basically I've been absent for 1 year and I've missed:
Jensen getting into college!
Jensen going to college!
Collin moving to PC.
Gine moved to PC.
Jensen got arrested and kicked out of college! (surprise!)
Gina is killin it this season!
Collin is killin it this season!
Jensen is still mad and drunk. haha

Anyway, glad to hear things are pretty much the same out there! I miss all you fockers and hope to visit sometime in March. Everyone plan on being back then. I also think that I'll be moving back out that way (maybe summit) for next season to give it one more go at a season of JUST halfpipe after getting both my knees fixied. After all, I'll only be the tender age of 27 and I still got my sig. alleyoop cork niner which can be a ten real easily for next year so watch yo backs....anyway...hit me back and keep it real in the boat. Gina, congrats on your super season...You are finally where you should be.

Ha ha KEVIN IS ALIVE! So funny...has anyone seen the Kevin look-alike that lives in Summit? So funny.

Thanks for all the support while at X Games--I love my Steamboat crue! I ended up getting taken down in the meat wagon during training the day before the event. I did a five, caught my feet on the deck and landed in the middle of the pipe (no transistion, the flatest part in the middle) right on my left hip. I ended up lying and telling them my pain wasn't as bad so I could still ski the next day, but I could barely click into my bindings the next day. I tried to ski as hard as I could, but it definitly was more of an experience due to the injury.

At the Queen's Cup, I landed on my hip twice again and now there is a ton of fluid on it. I can actually push the fluid from the side of my hip and make the side of my stomach jiggle--pretty funny, but very painful none-the-less. I will most likely be riding here tues & wed so come say hello because i've been SO homesick! And I leave on wed for aspen again. So there's a briefing of my travels, I hope everyone enjoyed....

Way to keep the thread going! I love you guys! mwah!

jensen, the weatherman never knows wtf he/she is talking about in steamboat...if they get it right, it's luck.

Gina, sorry to hear about your injuries...Now you know how I was feeling all last season riding on a blown mcl and not even knowing it...weeeeee...i think if you are not careful, your jigglin hip might turn into a hematoma if you keep landing on it...take some time off to let it heal, trust me, I've had hematomas from soccer and skiing and both times Doctors said they were the worst injuries they had ever seen, taking several weeks of PT message to get them under control, and both times could have turn into a bad blood clott, which in certain cases can lead to gang green which is very, very bad...don't mean to scare you, but it's better to be safe than sorry, which is why i'm back east this season.......

anyway, looks like I will be visiting Mar 6 - 14..at least that is what I'm gonna shoot for. Would be nice to see all you guys around if you can make it...if not, I will return in July to live in Fort Collins, so I'll see everyone then if I miss ya in March! I can't wait to get back out...getting both knees fixed end of next month, so I should be ready to go next season...whoohoo...sorry about the long post, see you guys soon!

not as many had a part in how it is this year as you think....and yea I've been here plenty of years. the biggest change was probably being able to have a new grooming crew that knows their shit, rather than asta & friends who were full of themselves.

Asta was fine, it was just the fact that he hated his job and the other guys they had besides him sucked severely...esp. when it came to cutting the pipe...and yes, i do know who helped because I worked with Doug LaPlaca for 4 years with Aaryn Briggs tryin to get comps goin and get more features and better jumps and a halpipe that was cut more than once a week...so, yeah, I'm glad to hear that they finally got some guys who know how to drive a cat, that in itself would be a HUGE difference from last season. BTW, what's your name?
