Cool Story!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

I was stoked. Will was chill and Ian was Ian. I really think Ian probably has that same grin on his face even when he is asleep. This was my first time at SIA and it is a little bit of a freak show. There were three guys walking around in skin tight yellow suits. Hopefully a little therapy will help erase those visual images. Live mannequins? The booths were cool. I was bummed that ON3P wasn't there. There are a lot of NSers that work for them; guys I really respect and it would have been cool to meet them.

All in all, it was a very fine day!

I qualified as an industry associate because I am planning to open a park style specific splash pool in Denver, and I paid $35.

Lawls on the pro hoe posts. I just told Will that I really appreciate TC and their "CAN JIB" philosophy. They see something new and the first thing that pops into their heads is, can I slide this? Y/N . If no, can I tail tap it? Y/N . If no, can I hand plant it? And if all else fails, they will just invent a new trick.

They are always having fun and never take themselves too seriously. That is something that I am hoping continues to rub off on NSers.
 
Three, haha. We decided the money would be better spent elsewhere being that we've only been in business for a year, and have a Scott on the floor taking notes for next year. We'll be releasing our stuff on our own time, you guys have plenty of new gear to fawn over. I'm going to go browse through the freeskier shots of day 1 now, later.
 
Right on. I'm pretty stoked for Sat/Sunday.
I'll be wandering around all day sat then probably till 11 on sunday.
And SIA is pretty easy to get credentialed for. I somehow scored a press pass.... my registration says featured blogger on Newschoolers... I'm not kidding.
But I do write freelance... it's just the NS thing was the easiest to prove and they didn't ask any questions. Applied, and got the confirmation a few hours later.
 
I was there checking it out.

Since we are not moving to retail just yet, no real reason to go and spend the money. We will likely be there next year, though.
 
phhht.

Pretty sure everyone that's ever worked for you in one way or another has an NS username.
