above: E-long gets steezy on the rainbow during the Ride With The Pros terrain park camp that we held for the local kids. E-long is a great guy and good snowboarder so its no surprise that the kids ended up flocking to him to learn new stuff.
Below: Jon Mon puts in some work during The Big Grin Slope Style event, demoing the new line of custom flex patterns and sizes in revs options for buildaboard.com. Jon missed out on most of the action at the event as people were all about demoing the new boards.

below: Jon mon, myself and Aaron C stretch out the Banshee Bungee during the terrain park camp. We didnt know how the kids would do with the new street jibbing product, The Banshee Bungee but it turned out good. the younger and lighter they were the faster that thing whipped them in.

above: Brandon Bibb gets his grub on with the youngster at the camp lunch. A big thanks to Subway for hooking up the food! It was cool to be able to have a little off hill time with the kids to just chill out eat food and chat it up for a while. Bibb cracked me up telling the kids storys from the road and explaining snowboard terms for them like...Snowboard Bum........Pro Ho.........and what its like to live at mt.hood during the summer.
Below: Filming at the charlevoix community skate park for the Banshee Bungee Promo. super fun. Our good friend Laura Stebe manages the park and hooked up a session for us so we didnt have to jump the fence.

These events are ran by a good friend of mine Dan Turcotte. Dans the events coordinator for Boyne highlands/mountain/bay harbor so he organized this whole event series where you have to come out on a regular basis and compete to earn points in order to qualify for the finals, aptly named The Jam'O Champs!
This is the event from 1-23-09. I am wearing the white helmet and bright yellow long sleeve. My shots got kind of cutt off but fun to have none the less.
