Week 9 Video

Week 9 Highlights



















Osler treated us really well for our last weekend. Maxwell delivered as promised, not only in his riding but in a rockin' picnic lunch for the team (thanks!).

The Osler Bluff No Guff Jib Jam was a sweet no pressure chillin' jam setup under the main chalet. Great work to Osler's park staff on making it happen. Nice to see our fallen soldier, Sean, poking his head out at the resort.

Thanks to everyone for all the support with the program. I know this is a season Chris and I won't soon forget. Looking forward to 2009!

Week 8 Highlights











Alpine was converted to a boardercross circuit switching our focus from spinning to rails. Always fun riding here because of the flow in the course.

Lakeridge comp was cancelled due to some sheduling conflicts with AOS, thanks to everyone for adjusting to the last minute changes. Half the crew rocked out in Osler's park which was in tip-top shape.

Next week from 5-7pm there is an open jib jam under the chalet tunnel at Osler. No pressure just a chill session. Stick around for some good times.

Vewdo Balance boards for sale

Great board for training. Develop faster reaction times and helps you achieve better balance on rails without even thinking about it.

http://vewdo.com/

I can get pro-deals on the boards for around 99$ US + shipping ($35). Buying multiple boards will be cheaper on shipping. I bought the SK8 model for myself.

If you want one, let me know, only a couple weeks left for me to get it for you. See the never before seen picture below of Sweatman rockin it in daycare.

Week 7 Highlights


During the week we had a few injuries... Tyler got into a fight with Chris and Sean tried to break it up and found himself with a broken collar bone. (just kidding.. two face plants and a flat landing in the pipe...) We're gonna miss you Sean!

Saturday found us at the peaks for another spinning session. Beautiful sunny day really gave Scotty a chance to work on his tan.

Sunday was a rainy day leaving us playing 'pass the ski-gee' during the AOS slopestyle at Louie. They held the comp in the jump line making us go big or go home. Oliver made friends with the washroom floor after a nasty spill on hill left his head a little shaken up. Alex killed it in his prelim runs but suffered some performance anxiety during the comp. Tessa made it into the podium taking home a medal for the team. Will and Sean would have done well in this comp with their air control... next time.
