WARM IN JACKSON

Holy shit it’s getting warm. I’m in Jackson, Wyoming and all the snow is turning to hot pow. I’d never thought I’d use those two words in the same sentence, Jackson and hot. Last time I was here it was -32 in the morning. After a solid four days in Tahoe I was in need of a week of laying around doing close to nothing. So I did. Nothing. For days. It was everything I thought it’d be and more. My body was hurting after a few brutal slams over those last two film trips so the rest was needed. So our crew in Jackson is pretty sweet. Danny K, Sketchy D, Regis, Slater, Greg Wheelz, Clancy, Regis, Tim Zimmerman, Louie Vito and Alex Pashley. Good group. When a crew gets to this size it takes on a kind of carnival feel. Sometimes it can get out of control but for the most part it makes for some good times. Unfortunately the sun decided to take a vacation on this trip. I don’t know where the sun decided to vacation but not in Jackson, Wyoming. It came out for a few minutes the other day and we were on it, Danny sent a natty back three off a cliff and I rode down a decent chute. Then the clouds came back in and we free rode powder all day. While we're here Kyle Clancy is nice enough to let us stay at his house. It’s an awesome property and makes trips to this area extremely enjoyable. We built a jump in the yard and sesssioned it the other afternoon. Good times were had. After that we watched a bunch of VHS tapes. The DVD player broke so now we’re down to North Shore, Happy Hour and Fletch. Blaise Rosenthal does a bs7 in Happy Hour that’s huge, I recommend if you haven’t seen it to check it out. Then the next time you see him tell him he's the man. He'll smile.
