Hey Mark!

Thanks for the post, I enjoyed the videos!

It is really cool to see that you have followed your passion, sure is a long way from 'back in the day' at Powder King!

Hard to believe that we used to look as young as your riders in the video!

Cheers and best of luck with your team.
Rob

Hey Rob, thanks man. Its riding like yours that inspired me and the others to learn to carve. Tried to get the team to PK this past fall for a pre-season camp, but they didnt get enough snow in time. Maybe next season...

PK

Mark, thank you for the kind words!

Seeing you and your team rip it up at PK is something that would definitely inspire this old guy, funny how things always come full circle:) Your team members are lucky to have a passionate guy like you in their corner.

See you at the Elevator Shaft!
Rob

These videos are what I'd call "promote art and science of snowboard carving" :clap2:

Great video.

After watching the movies, I feel like buying a race board and do some races.

Very inspiring video, thank you. :clap2:

Mammoth mtn

Team CSC update:

After 7 weeks off snow, Spring camp is on now at Mammoth mountain.
PS: the snow is sick for this time of year. We are having epic freecarving. I forgot how good the groomers are here. And we have the hill to ourselves. We normally train at Sunshine and Farnham for spring camp, but we wanted a longer break this year (sunshine closes may 24), and Farnham ran out of funding this season.

If you are out at Mammoth before June 9th, swing by and say hello.

PS: saw some monoboarder on a Burton Prime today. Never saw a mb'er on an alpine board, but makes sense. Not sure why he doesn't just ride it sideways though!
