Over the past two years I took up trampolining... And it has taken me a long time to progress to this stage... Where I am actually comfortable attempting tricks which involve being upside down.

This is all to get my self into a comfort zone to do it on the skis. I don't know if I will ever really have the bottle to try but I want to one day.
What is really crazy about trampolining is how some of the more basic movements can completely throw people.
As me and Pete have been getting more confident there are often kids or even adults who will listen and learn from what you say. I never thought I would get to a stage in this sport where I actually know enough to help give advice and advance peoples own abilities.
I finally gathered the courage to start trying rotations on my snowboard at the dryslope. It hasnt been as productive as I had hoped... But at least I feel fairly confident I can ride out of any trouble.
In other news.. I have ordered some new park ski boots (2013/14 tom wallisch full tilts). Which I am so stoked to have arrive. As I will be able to do a full tilt bootfit as well which never happens.
Next week we are taking Becky for her first taste of tournament paintball. I think she will really enjoy it.. But might come back a little bruised as it is quite a lot more about being shot than when you play in the woods.
Well I guess that was this week's update... Work has been ridiculously busy, I guess me making a few fairly big mistakes last month have taken their toll. At least it is the weekend now and although I am working both days at snowtrax, it is more of a hobby than a job.
