Jan. 12. Apparently TJ Schiller et al. will be there.

I skied Marble for nearly a week in March 2002, and got some awesome powder on 2 days. We flew into Deer Lake, which is only a 30 minute drive from the hill. Although I agree it is expensive to get there, so long as you fly into Deer Lake it's not too difficult.

I would agree that most mogul and aerial judges haven't got the slightest clue what they're doing when judging a pipe event. But that's all the more reason to get ex-halfpipe athletes, ex-halfpipe coaches and other knowledgeable people in there, trained and then judging these events. As well...

Hopefully they do their work and open it soon. I don't know what the status is since Sunday.

For anyone that is interested, results and a short news blurb are are on www.ncdfreestyle.com. Just go to the News and Results pages. Honourable mentions go out to a few skiers. Bryan Snow stomped one of the sweetest fakie rodeo 7 mutes I've seen in a while to win the juvenile mens big air...

Big air was built Thursday morning on Clifford skier's right. We didn't have a ton of snow to make it perfect, but it's not bad.

Camp Fortune is once again hosting the Ontario Freestyle Championships. Big air is Saturday, Feb. 17, and moguls are Sunday, Feb. 18. Check out http://www.ncdfreestyle.com/news.html for the details and to inquire about participating, or get a schedule to come out and watch. There's a Feb. 10...

Only problems with night skiing are the buses full of hacks. Park pass, or at least some sort of filter to weed out the kooks, is needed.

My vote would be Fortune, though I only saw Fortune and MSM last season.

That move comes from old school in-line. It's called "side surfing".

Just do both skiing and education. Obviously you can't do one to the max AND do the other to the max, but balancing is certainly possible.

Guillaume's been killing it since at least 2000... http://www.engsoc.org/~bigmike/skiing/videos/rewindthat.php
