fin Posted March 8, 2013 Report Share Posted March 8, 2013 Just a quick announcement to let all here at BOL-land that Moderator Jack Michaud is going to take a sabbatical from moderating here on BOL. Jack was one of the originals here at BOL and has been a HUGE help to me and the forum. Moderatoring is a thankless job and a great way to get “creative” e-mails from some of the more passionate users here at BOL. But the job is necessary and effective. With his help, we are able to keep BOL a civil and welcome place for all levels of hardbooters. So Bomber would like to officially thank Jack for all his help and work over the many years and we’ll be here when you are ready to Mod again. That said, would like to welcome our two new Mods for BOL: Bryan Sutherland, BOL (handle www.oldsnowboards.com) and Corey Dyck (handle “corey_dyck”). Thank you Bryan and Corey for taking on this task to make BOL the bad-ass haven for all hardbooters across the world Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miltie Posted March 9, 2013 Report Share Posted March 9, 2013 Jack, Thanks for all your support to BOL as a moderator - you done well. Hope you stick around and continue as "The Alpine Ambassador". Bryan and Corey, Thanks for stepping up and taking the reigns. I am sure you both will do a fine job! Best regards, Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lonbordin Posted March 9, 2013 Report Share Posted March 9, 2013 (edited) Thanks Jack... I've appreciated your efforts. Bryan's the nicest guy on BOL unless you want buy the same item as he does...

All kidding aside thx for stepping up KC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Puddy Tat Posted March 12, 2013 Report Share Posted March 12, 2013 Jack, thanks for everything you did and do around here. The articles, the comments, all of it. For someone I've never met you've improved my riding quite substantially. Interested to hear how the 'loaf banked slalom goes for you this year. Bryan and Corey, there's two of you. Do I get to try with you guys what my daughters are now doing to me? "Awww Bryan... Corey totally said we could do that!" Dave :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dantheman0177 Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 "The Alpine Ambassador". Sounds to me a perfect new status for Jack to replace Lord of the Ruts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjnakata Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 (edited) Jack has personally helped me on several occasions with technical questions and "mod duties." Thank you for taking the time to help a stranger whose only connection is the type of board under foot. I would certainly be out of snowboarding without BOL and folks like Jack. Bryan is a leader on BOL and has the skills to deal with its many personalities. I've seen it! Bryan: I told you so! Edited March 22, 2013 by www.oldsnowboards.com oops, one of the first of many future boo boos I am sure :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueB Posted March 21, 2013 Report Share Posted March 21, 2013 Thanks Jack, you were a great mod! However, you left it in the good hands. O/t, I love your new EC avatar! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack M Posted March 22, 2013 Report Share Posted March 22, 2013 Thanks again everyone, I'm glad I could help. I started a new job on Monday March 11 and I need to focus on that for a while. We'll see what happens. Bryan and Corey were easy choices, I'm sure they will do a great job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
utahcarver Posted March 23, 2013 Report Share Posted March 23, 2013 Thanks to Jack and all that he has contributed to this forum over the years. One of my personal breakthroughs in learning to carve was a result of one of Jacks' articles. It helped me progress in my riding and let me be in more control. And congrats to the new Mods. I'm not that familiar with Corey but, that Bryan, whewwww... what a character we have in him! Good luck, Bryan and Corey and I hope to ride with you guys someday. Bryan, I enjoyed your extended video package on another thread. When does it come out on DVD? Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEJ Posted April 21, 2013 Report Share Posted April 21, 2013 Does this mean we can ride asyms again? All kidding aside.
