No More Broken Wrist

That's right no more broken wrist for me. On December 4th Thursday I get my cast off woot woot.
I can't wait, except when I get it off my skins going to look like an alligator......oh well but also I got a penny stuck in there last night so when they saw it off that should be be interesting. Any way I'm probaqbly going to go snowboarding when I get it off. Big dumps here I come once more I miss the mountain soon enough it will be off though soon enough................

Short Film

Oh yes my step mom helped with the idea that I should make a short film. Since it is the winter months of the year I will be writing,directing, and somewhat acting in the film about snowboarding. The basic plot is that these snowboarders love their local mountain Fox River, everything is swell until they come onto their favorite run on the mountain which is closed off with surveyor flags and a sign that says notice land closed for construction of condos and such. So these snowboarders need to find out what is happening and how to stop it to save their favorite part of the mountain. The film is mostly a comedy and has a lot of amazing snowboarding.

The Rocker Revolution

Snowboarding is full of new ideas progression and technology. in the past couple of years the snowboarding world has changed so drastically. The reason being that there is something called rocker tech or or alternative camber, this is a twist on regular camber. Your probably going "what is camber?" The first picture shows how between the bindings there is an elevated are then after the binding area the board tips flip up. This style board is really aggressive and really easy to catch an edge but now that you know about traditional camber I can start to explain alternative camber. One style of A.C. is Rocker. Rocker is one continuous concave shape although it is very mellow you can see and feel the difference. Rocker is really easy to butter and press and is even really great for beginners since there is less chance of catching an edge and easier to enichate a turn, Also these boards float efortlously in powder. Next is Flat Camber This is more for a park or pipe rider. They also say that it is a happy medium for reverse and teraditional camber. Although this board is not as easy to float in powder it has great pop and is stable at high speed unlike rocker also with a catch free feeling on rail and other jibs. Last but not least is R.C. rocker camber, as if it couldnt get confusing enough they came out with a combination. The R.C. has rocker beetween the feet but has camber after the binding inserts. This board is brobably the most stable at high speeds next to traditional camber and the fun buttery feeling of rocker but alot of park rider feel that ithas a dead feel or no pop. I guess to really better understand you would have to try them out yourself, anyways live to shred and shred to live PEACE.

Arches

When I was in Moab, Utah I had a little time to relax from the mountain biking and enjoy the Arches national park.There was supposedly over 5000 arches in the park although we only got to see a few it was still pretty cool. Here are pictures of the north and south windows with friends Bart and Aron.
