The Return To Rossendale

Last night I thought I would go test out Ski Rossendale after it reopened a couple of weeks ago, and to my surprise it was actually real sick. Got to say did take a beating second run after I took the piss out of dryslope and did a backy first run. Then i soon learnt that old lesson on the second run that dryslope is king when It tripped me up on landing and eat shit!!! was amusing, manage to get a few videos thanks to Sammy Ash.

Cas Shred

So last night I went to Cas to meet up with the Unity Crew and shred some rails after along time of doing zero skiing. The boys were on it as usual landing some crazy stuff. Managed to get some shots testing out my new camera. check it

London Freeze 2011

I had a sweet time at the Freeze this year super hectic, hardly any practice and some serious fun in the process. Ended up coming 4th in the Battle of Britain after a sick head to head with Andy Bennet who in my eyes should have won with the zero spin!! But I wasn't going to complain as it meant I got the hit the jump one more time. The Finals were intense with Woodsy killing it as per with the dub 12 and Andy getting massive mute grabs all day. Missed out on the main comp by one place but only makes me more determined for next year.

Strictly Business

So today was the online Premier of Unity Productions 2011 short film "Strictly Business" I think Rob has done an amazing job this year and its competing with films with 10 times the budget which is just unreal!!!! here it is,

Hintertux round up

Today was the last day of my trip in Hintertux has been wicked fun with some really cool people. Didn't manage to get the most skiing in with only 4days good weather but was still highly productive and went back to basics and worked on a few problems. Whilst I was waiting for the bus I was sat next to this Audi in the picture with a rather relevant number plate! I leave for the ski show tomorrow so may have a video of the to come.

Second to last day in Hinterux

So with only two days left it was time to turn it on and work on a few doubles. First couple were abit sketchy but after tweaking a few things the started to work nicely. Also have been working hard on the 7's throwing in some different grabs not all good but some worked. Unfotuantely Tomo, Jules and machon have set off back to London. I have one more day to fine tune my runs for the Freeze then Im flying back to london to have ago at this outrageous hip (cliff drop) structure they have erected at the metro ski and snowboard show.

Finally good weather

So after 5days of practically no skiing, we finally had some good weather. The kickers were smaller than I had hoped, but can still make them productive none the less.I kept it nice and chilled working on a few different 7's getting the feel with some new grabs. Hopefully tomorrow they will have altered the jumps and put some more pop in them so some bigger tricks can be thrown.

Yet another DownDay

downday Episode 1

1st day back

Me and Tommo scoping out the speed

Cramp in the foot, not fun
having a stand off with a cow

So today was the first time riding snow since April, I have to say the first couple of laps were a little sketchy but after an hour it slowly came back to me. park is on top condition and full of brits throwing down. Had a slight problem of cramp in the foot after riding which the boys thought was highly amusing. Tomorrows weather doesn't look to be great so there could be a video blog of random stuff from our downday. We also encountered some strange traffic on our way down from the hill, true Austrian style!!!

Shred time

So its half 7 here in Hintertux, the boys are still tired but its blue skis and time to go shred!!!!! check back later tonight for more updates on how the day went.

Road Trip (Hintertux)

So we had to wait an extra day, due to late parcels and some other minor hiccups but we kept ourselves busy with a spot of tennis and a session on julians trampoline. The following morning was a 2:30am get up for a 4am date with the ferry. Tommo was half dead and speaking a whole new language that only he could understand, Jules couldn't sleep because of a disorder he gets called "Overstoke" These are a few photos from the 750mile Journey to Hintertux.

Early Christmas

So today was too much fun another super sunny day which meant I could bust of new Spy Flnns, today was also the start of the road trip to Hintertux with my main man tommo and some other guy called Julian I think. On route we called in at the Armada warehouse to loot the place took as much as the SnoKart could hold. Big shout out to Andy Collins for the MONSTERS haha. More blogs of my time in Tux to come also could be a sweet edit coming out soon, Stay Tunned.
