Fun with huck

Well I've had the last few weeks off of work and riding, things are slow but I've been able to spend more time with the Family!

I leave for detroit on Teusday the 20th and will have a meeting with the states leading orthopedic surgeon Dr.Guetler. I'm gonna hang downstate for a few days then catch a flight to California for the Liquid Boardwear shoot. I thin Jon Mon is meeting up with me in Cali and i might catch a ride back to Utah with him and work on some Rev stuff for a few days!

Here are some current pics.

its over

Yup,
the season is over here in Michigan and aside from my upcoming trip to the Tahoe area so is my riding for this year.

2009/2010 was a great season full of whacky weather, laughter, new experiences, 100+ days on hill and all around great times with new and old friends!
My hat is off to all the warriors who were out on hill shredding the gnar gnar beside me this winter, Charlie Hoffman, Rich Whinnie, Eric Coon, Justin Ducker, Dougie, Kris Keiser, Conrad Klooster, Dillan Ott, Zak Ginop, Mike Harrington, Dan Kohlberg and many more!
Thanks for making this one of my most memorable seasons yet!

So as of now I've got some great off hill pics for everyone to check out!

I recently celebrated my 24th Birthday on the great St.Paddys, March 17th.
Thanks for the lemon cake Kelly and Girls!

Huck is now 7 months old!
This Kid, let me tell you, has the ability to make me smile all the time!
I am so blessed to have him and his mother in my life.

The big grin 3

Thanks to everyone who made this event happen, and all those who came out for the 2nd to last day at Nub's Nob!

We had a great time with the event this year and I think its safe to say that it went off!

The grand prize for open class snowboard division was a 1 year factory sponsorship from none other than Revolution MFG and the kid who won it was very deserving!
Everyone i give you ......................................

The melt down is underway!
A week ago we were looking at 50 degree weather and a closing date of April 11th.
Turns out that 80 is the new 50, yeah thats right, its 80 degrees and its APRIL !

Needless to say i more than bummed about this being our last weekend of riding in the mitten. But at least we get to go out with a bang!

The Big Grin 3 is this Saturday and i could not be more happy to host/emcee this event!

My brother Todd came out on hill with me the other day and captured some photo's of this slush puppie riding we are doing here in michigan.
