CLIFFord

The morning started off with good intentions. We were gassed up and ready to roll at 8, and headed out to this really cool zone. Guess we should have known after the first five minutes when all we found was ice and our over-heated-engine lights kept coming on, but we kept on and ended up at the zone.

Group Dynamics. We roll deep.

The whole zone was ice garbage pretty much. We sat there for about 5 minutes and decided to check out a different spot. After a refill at Starbucks, myself, Hammer, Peter, Cody, & photog Kevin Westenbarger headed out.

We hit the jackpot with snow.

Cody wanted to snap a photo, so he gave an action test shot to figure out the Canon Digi delay.

He got it dialed for Peters fs180. Hammer was claiming it was 15ft. He was wrong... by about 30 feet. ha

Hammer dropped first, and powered thru a wild landing. I don't know how on earth he held on to it, the snow right there wasn't that good after all, and when he landed his feet almost came out of his bindings. He powered through like a champ though.

I look like a skier goon... changing angles.

We ended up finding a really rad jump and those dudes threw down.

Peter taking a breather.. getting his logo incentives.

Awesome needle tree.

Business was handled. We had a good day, did some scouting, threw some snowballs, etc. Had some tough weeks of bad weather, but today made up for it.

Only a month or two left... hangin in.
