Same simple idea, yet ages apart.
Then and now…
Colorado.
Made it to Colorado just fine. All I can say is wow, this place is amazing. Just amazing.
After we arrived at the airport Craig and I had a long wait for the rest of the crew to arrive. They aren’t kidding when they say America is the land of fast food. Lunch options in the airport were Taco Bell, BK, and Domino’s. Greasiest personal pizza I’ve ever had, but Craig loved it of course.
-
- Craig and pizza go together like milk and cookies.
-
- Even the airport has some spots.
-
- Finally met up with the crew. Stoked!
-
- It was was wonderful drive to Frisco.
-
- Not Obama country.
-
- Yes that is the real price.
-
- We rode Copper the first day. It was fun and the pipe was alright.
-
- Breck is amazing. Best park I have ever ridden. Period.
-
- Sickest feature in the whole park.
Back on the Wagon.
2 months to the day (almost) since I last posted anything here and I am back. Once again, I got side tracked with work, snowboarding and in general just being way too tired and busy to keep up with this on a daily basis. Anyways, it’s summer time (almost) and I have a lot more free time on my hands to work on this and a lot of other design related projects I have been tossing around in my head all winter.
Now, on to other news. I’m jobless. They weren’t kidding in school when they said that finding a graphics job would be hard. If anyone knows of anyone or anywhere that is looking to hire a young, dedicated and very willing to learn graduate feel free to share it with me. Thanks.
On Saturday I will be heading to Colorado for a week with the Simple team to do some spring riding. As in Whistler last summer I am going to try and keep this updated daily so everyone can follow what is going on with me and the Simple team. I’ve never been to Colorado before so it’s definitely an exciting experience that I am really looking forward to.
That’s all for now, check back lots for (hopefully) lots of Colorado updates. Hopefully I can keep up with the daily updates like I used to!
Growing up with type.
This is actually spot on.

Full Part: Jed anderson-Get Real.
TWSnow.com just posted Jed’s full part from their video Get Real. Lots of haters out there but I think the kid kills it. Brings a new style to snowboarding and proves that pro’s don’t to have to be uber serious about acting like they are having fun. Not to mention he has some good tricks.
Zero Rupee.
An amazingly clever idea being introduced to Indian currentcy.
“Zero rupee note that Indians can slip to corrupt officials who demand bribes”
