I am so stoked - happy - proud- excited! My friend HACK [ we were hanging out a bunch last year, strictly platonic though… never ever happened ] from Tannersville is opening his own bar called THE BOARDING HOUSE and the first SNOWBOARDERS HOTEL out East!

Last Winter, while making turns @ Hunter Mountain, we talked about our passions, taking chances and lots of other things. He told me he admires my courage to ’start’ businesses and that he’d love to do something himself. We kind of stopped talking for a while because I went out West for the rest of …

there are days that I just don’t feel like I am up to par with the rest of the world…

*sigh*

I hope it’ll be better tomorrow.

On the other hand…

Winter is over. I managed to get 62 days ON SNOW, meaning, I have been on a chairlift/ gondola on 62 different days this season. I realized that I’ll most likely won’t go pro any day soon. hehehe…. I did South Shore Soldiers for both sessions and it was a sad show. I just can’t seem to catch air and the times that I do… well… I blank out. I probably keep my eyes closed and think of the Queen of Holland. No air awareness whatsoever. I suck… it was the definition of insanity: doing the same thing over and …

I went to Vegas last week, to go see what gear I’ll be riding/ sporting next season. The show is called SIA  [ I still have no idea what those letters stand for ]. My ‘wife’ tagged along and we were staying with  C+ S + Uncle Dave [SouthShore Soldiers].

It was fun, wasn’t it for the sad fact that I got super sick on Tuesday night and was hallucinating on the plane, popping mucinex and anti flu pills like they were m&m’s.

I bruised my tailbone on Monday when my new craigslist friend T told me that I should …

I don’t know what is going on with me, but I am still really bummed out to be nowhere near a mountain and snow.

As a matter of fact, I am that bummed out that I have been dreaming about riding just about every night.

Last night I even dreamt that I was in Tahoe and that I jumped in my g’friend’s M’s big SUV and drove to the Timberline (in Portland OR). It was a tough drive, and I don’t really believe I got there, but I did get to a house and saved some girls from an intruder…

hahaha… …

It has been quite some time.

Some updates:

went back to Tahoe, for South Shore Soldiers (www.southshoresoldiers.com) it was awesome! I had the best time, stayed for about 2 weeks.. made lots of friends and drank way too many bloody Mary’s.
After Tahoe, I visited my friend N. in Reno. We played golf (crashed the cart), went bowling and visited Truckee and Northstar.
Back in NYC, very sad… went on Craigslist and found an ad looking for people who wanted to go to Killington.. needless to say… I responded. It was fun and stayed there for 4 days. Made a new friend E.
Never …

my new board… the Ride Fever 147

Been in Tahoe since last Thursday, have been ridin’ for the last 4 days and I am absolutely wrecked. I feel like I have been abused with a baseball bat. My ass is blue and my back is killin’ me.

I am addicted. I suck,  but for some reason it makes me happy. I am not thinking about anything but how to get down the most normal way without falling hehehe…. Maybe it’s some sort of therapy… I mean I really really don’t have anything else on my mind but how …
