I just watched it ....I'll be away from my desk for a bit ...I need to change my pants.

Thanks ....after I watched Ted's run I scrolled down and found Matt Morisons winning ride in Italy I found this completely by accident. His final run in Italy for the GOLD and Mike Lambert, Kimmi Z and Matt Carter meet him at the finish. You tube is so cool. So far there is little to no press coverage in Canada <!-- / message --> <!-- sig --> __________________ JDB

Matt qualified 10th then won EVERY run! http://www.fis-ski.com/pdf/2008/SB/7301/7301RLRF.PDF

Track it via www.canadapost.ca Enter and track your package number 'cx 212 250 814 ca' at the lower left. My past experience with Canada Post has all been good.

Beginning on March 1st the Oshawa Ski Club will be selling memberships for next year. So you can ride the rest of this year and next year for this years price. I thought you might be interested.

That's great you edited your profile with your Location so riders local to you can help you. Starting Gate would be great place to check into, and the East Coast Expression Session will have a huge amount of talent attending. The ECES is from March 3 to 9. According to GOOGLE MAPS, Potsdam to Stratton is 217 miles. If you are thinking of going consider a 20-mile detour by making a left turn in Tupper Lake on the way down and go to Lake Placid to watch a World Cup SBX and PGS race March 1 to 3. The schedule is at http://www.fis-ski.com/pdf/2008/SB/7258/2008SB7258PROG.pdf You will get to see some of the riders that will be at the Olympics in 2010 without a trip to Vancouver and the $150 ticket. If you were ever near Montreal (175km) I'd point you to Sharks in Laval. In mid January they had some used boards and more than 20 new alpine boards in stock and at least 3 models of boots and bindings. I don't think they demo though you can call them at 1-800-473-5543 or 450-663-5543. If you were local to me I would send you to my home hill, which has Deluxe 225 boots from size 24 to 30, F2 boards and bindings for demo on the hill. This little hill is home to over 25 plate riders so stuff is constantly being swapped or sold. I am within 45 minutes of our supplier YYZCANUCK.com in Toronto and another 30 to the home of Coiler. We don't have the altitude but we do have the attitude and atmosphere for carving. JDB

Nothing fancy, but I have space at my place, 20 minutes away from the hill, in Courtice the night before or after the Masters if the drive looks nasty. dbarlow AT interlinks DOT net or "nine o five" "seven two eight" 8424 leave a message .....I've gone riding. Doug
