Looks like someone is not sure he has the skills to sidehill out of there. I was like that when my sled still had that new smell. Now just pin it. Lol

jarrod is pretty good at side hilling, but he was a long ways up and scared I think.
cant tell from the pic but he's way up there and it's steep.
got hor'd up on a tree trying to chute climb on his Boost-it turbo Pro in hero snow

Don't fault him for being cautious. Just shows he wants to ride his sled tomorrow and not a rental. When ever I would try something on that scale I would say to myself " Poopy Pants Time "

Was snowing hard today, so for some reason me and my friend Kalon decided to try to bust into a zone we have been trying to conquer for 3 seasons
now...

And it payed of big! Needs a bit more of a base yet due to the size of boulders in this place, but man did it feel good to be up in there. More snow and blue
and this zone is going to rock!

Steep! trees and uphill pillows, creeks and willows snot holes ext. One of the rowdies trail rides I've ever done.


Didn't bring my good camera, cause this trail involves rollovers, but I took some on old trusty,, and I think you'll get the point.

In last picture the visibility was marginal?

you mean the pic of kalon smashed into the rock?

he was pinning it down hill and couldn't see
cause of the pow I guess. I Didn't see it happen
but the rock was the size of a truck lol
