    Brad and I had a great time laying down some sweet carves with Ryan tonight. We scared the begeebers out of some of the newbies sitting in the middle of the runs.

    Where was everyone else???

    Oh well, next time...

    Thanks for he email Kurt! I never visit this section of the forum.

    I typically have hockey or soccer on Monday evenings, but will ditch either for a least a few sessions. I'm not a racer, just a carving enthusiast.

    Please send me the details.

    Thanks,

    Looks like Montana is either the weekend of Jan 19 or 26.

    So, lets go with Sunday, January 13, 2008.

    The Street Cred Rail Jam is scheduled on the 12th.

    I'll try and get something posted on Nakiska's event calendar.

    BTW, Darcy and I from are planning to head down for SES again this year. Hopefully we can drag some other Albertans down with us...

  19. 2007 SES wrap-up: Thanks to all who came!

    Imagine my surprise when my daughter called me at the office and said "Dad, did you order something? There's a package at home for you."

    Bruce at Coiler said he wouldn't build me the free board I won until May. He lied. Bruce, thank you soooo much. There is enough of the season left where I should be able to get out for a test run without hitting any rocks.

    And thank you again, Fin and Michelle. I'm already planning to come back next year and win another board...

    Steve

    P.S. Here was my order:

    - All Mountain Board

    - 172 length

    - 21.5 waist

    - Micrograin Base

    - Full Wrap Edge Nose

    - Top Sheet: Orange Flames

  25. Nakiska Expression Session (NES)

    It was bullet-proof in the morning, so we took a break to let the snow loosen up. After that, it was fun carving throughout the day until both our legs and the snow turned to slush.

    Everyone in the photo was riding anything between 152 and 167. I would have been on my Prior 183 WCR, but it hasn't come back from repairs yet. There was another guy on a Coiler 187 custom that wasn't in the photo. However, I don't think board length matters at any mountain. Since I got my Prior 183 (14m SCR) I've ridden it very comfortably at SES 2007 in Aspen (Buttermilk and Snowmass), Nakiska, Sunshine and at the steeps in Golden. To answer your question though, Nakiska is probably the widest open-carving hill I've ridden at and loves to be trenched with long boards.

    Sorry, I don't have any action shots. We were having too much fun playing cat and mouse to take many photos. I will try and distribute the remainder of the photos I did take...

    On another note, if anyone is in Kimberley next weekend, my entire family and I will be there with 3 hard-booter in the mix.
