After rolling into town last Wednesday I couldn't wait to get to the mountains and finally ride some good snow. I love you Lake Tahoe, but your icy conditions and lack of snow cover causing me to shred up my board, and not in a good way, was bumming me out to no end. As much fun as riding over rocks, busting my ass, and encountering the greenhouse effect in my snow pants is, I was so stoked to be back shredding the Rockies.
Thursday morning I went to pick up my good buddy Jake Galusha (JG) from the airport in Denver and from there we were on our way to the mountains. We were meeting our other buddy, Jacob Biddle, (JB) who was already in Vail riding. We got to the Eisenhower Tunnel at about 2:30 and decided to hit up Keystone for a Twilight sesh. Since it was a week day there was hardly anyone on the hill so we were able to get in a bunch of runs with no lift lines to wait in.
Keystone has a super sick park set up with a bunch of really rad features and we lapped that quite a bit. I was back in a positive state of mind after my Tahoe park massacre experience, and I rode well in the park. There are some way fun wall rides and I was all over those. There's also a pretty big quarter pipe that JG was charging. We got a couple good photos and had an awesome session. We took off at like 6 and headed to Avon to meet up with JB and crash for the night in the Walmart parking lot...

Perfect power stance
The Keystone lights
We got a little video action of the last run with the poino-shoo camera, as I like to call it, (point and shoot) so check it out. When I load the videos from the poino-shoo onto imovie, the sound never works, which usually isn't a big deal cause I play music over it anyway, but in this case I was bummed cause we were saying some funny shit on the way down and I wanted it on the vid. Alas, dig it.
