Merry Christmas!
Dec0
Merry Christmas everyone!
It’s been a few days since my last post. Since then, I’ve:
- Gone snowboarding with Lam and two of his co-workers @ Meadows
- Hung out with my friends at Nat’s party
- Bought a neato Christmas present for myself. You’ll see what it is in a few days. :p
- Caught up on my TV shows (Bones, House M.D., Lost, Scrubs) and also watched Hitch for kicks

So after seeing one triumph, these are my other jump attempts for the day… I hope I never have this form going off a jump again. They hurt on the landing. Thank goodness for the helmet, wrist guards and the knee pads! … Now if I only had a butt pad for these… I look like a cartoon character going off the ledge. Shoot.

The snow was absolutely fresh, and it was just perfect for the second weekend! — but it was COLD. The temp at base camp (5250 feet) was 15 degrees in the morning, and 13 degrees at 6600 feet. The high at base camp was a mere 18 degrees, and at 6600 feet, it only got up to 16 degrees!
To start, here are some pics of Simon’s doing some jumps with crazy air!

Meadows Season Opener – My photos

11 of us went up to Mount Hood Meadows Yesterday afternoon/night for the season opener. The snow was fresh, the sky clear, and there was little to no wind. You couldn’t ask for more perfect boarding conditions
