I was about to drive back to Van this morning when the cloud lifted and I saw all the snow up the hill. Change of plans, hit Blackcomb, still finding piles of puff at 2pm. Great day to cap off a fun week.

Cheers, Ben

I think today was a direct result of the obfuscation from this forum.

I couldn't get up there today due to other commitments and had consoled myself with thoughts of mad crowds. Isn't it the start of the school holidays? Ah well - glad some people here had a ball.

Cheers Ben

I couldn't make it up there today as I have a helicopter appointment to make in Nelson tomorrow:fu:

But I'm always stoked when people get some!

Why slag free swag?:rolleyes:

ummm, as your doctor i recommend against riding with a scaphoid fracture.

Busy today, but woke up to 30cm and was spent by lunch. Thanks for the fun times Whistler!

This trip to Kelowna was definately an undertaking - Liam and I had been planning this project for 24 hours. We worked really hard to pull out all the stops in this video. We had slo-mo goggle shots; time lapses; pedal flips; outrageous product shots; unloading and loading the bike; walking through the field with your hand in wheat. At the end of the day this trip was all about just getting out and riding with all my friends.

Rolled up to 7th Heaven when it opened today…banged off 3 laps before the crowds arrived. It was an all-you-can-eat pow buffet today, w/blue skies.

Been snowing again for the last hour…:dizzy:

Another amazing day under the belt.

Can't believe the cold blower pow we've been getting.

Best VD's I've seen this afternoon. Thigh deep fluff, no one there. Nuts.
