If anyone is needing a ride from reno airport on Sunday the 12th around 4:30 I rented a car, I think I will have space for a body and a little luggage.

I'm flying in to Reno Sunday at 16:12, anyone driving through at that time or flying in and looking for a rider? I probably have a ride out on Friday other option is we rent a car

I read the article in Slate this morning, visited the Rally Me website and sent a donation. I hope all of you will do what you can to support Justin as well as other snowboard racers. Justin coached Anne and I at a Chris Klug race camp at Buttermilk about 8 years ago. I wish I had known how little support he had prior to the Olympics, we would have donated earlier. Please help him and the alpine snowboarding sport!

yes that's me I think that was last spring. Doug I was just up for the weekend back in Seattle now. hope to catch you next year didn't see anothuper carver on the Hill

New snow, fog and bullet proof down a few cm.

Anybody have Allan Worley's contact info please send to me, Al, thanks for the Goode it arrived a few days ago!

Lets ride tomorrow, who is here riding what mountain?

got our legs warmed up for a few days in idaho with a couple other carvers, only got hit by one skier! see you saturday afternoon. Charlie (and Anne if she isn't driving a bus)

This is the monthly Airline racing event so there should be a few carvers there, snowboard race is Tuesday. Anne and I are arriving Monday leaving Friday. Any of the rest of the community going to be there? We are staying at Snowmass but will probably ride snowmass and maybe ajax as well :)

You might also try alpine touring boots, i ride them more than my raichles, they are lighter, more flexible, hence more forgiving, and maybe easier to find at your local mountaineering shop. My other motive is that sometimes ride two planks and can use them for that too.

Thanks Michelle and Fin for once again hosting a great week of carving and thanks Sean, Frank and Bruce for the gear i rode, still like the snap of the Oly Freecarve best. I'm looking out at lake washington thinking about carving it up. Won't be back on the snow til the 26th in SV Idaho. Anne, Cathy and hopefully daughters will be carving with me. Anne says no skiing for her next year, just carving. See you next year, oh if your in Seattle look us up. It was great riding with all of you!

Anne and i will be there to carve with the <0.1% ers, looking forward to it

Anne and I will be there this year, looking forward to riding with the crew after missing last year.

chris where are you staying, i'm looking for a place from the 8th through 11th

I'll arrive on the 8th, leaving on the 11th. looking forward to the annual shindig. anyone know of lodging available in aspen?

looking forward to riding with the crew. will probably make specific arrangements in january, try to bum a ride and a place to stay. anybody got some gear i can borrow?

I will be there, haven't made any plans yet other than to block out the calendar.

I'll be there sunday night and ready to shred through saturday.

I want any of you who have the opportunity to ride with gavin and sean at one of their camps to do so. Just rode with them last weekend at sun peaks bc and had a teriffic time. the coaches, mark, justin, and sean helped everyone improve their skills with individual attention and video review. running some gates was great, especially watching everyone get better. I have to thank fin for the espression session too as without it i never would have met kenny, jbird and eric who also rode in the camp last weekend, kind of like a mini old home week. We all need to promote the sport, part of doing that is making sure there is competant instruction available which we can do by attending these kind of things and hiring the instructors/coaches. I have to admit that i am amazed and humbled to see people carving after just a few days when it took me years of experimentation to figure it out. the difference is those new carvers didn't have a fool for an instructor as i did.:)
