When Sammy was at pine he said he would try and make it out to the job academy at spirit. I asked and he was down, he said that it looked like fun to ski in MN judging by what he saw in the 3rd nip.
so yeah hes not going he went to one last year, and he said that he should have been concentrating on filming instead of goin to it, which i understand, I forget who they are gunna send, but i think steve was saying he does octos like a mad man
We'll bring a great crew of coaches to the JA at Spirit. Mike Douglas is coming to film for Salomon Freeski TV which will be sweet. Sammy or SImon should be there. It's hard to know so early in the season cause they have a lot going on which you know. Sammy did have a great time in Ohio last year- he still keeps in touch with those kids and even went back this summer to one of their camps. Clarkey and Hathaway will be there as well as John Symms, Meg Olenick, Tommy Ellingson (head coach at Windells) and more. We'll keep you posted on NS and on the JIb Academy website. Really stoked for the Spirit stop!!
haha i snowboard... but i have a pass to spirit and i get way discounted rentals so maybe i'll go and do it just for the fun of it. that would be cool. last year i skied spirit for a day and it was fun. i got pretty good at carving and i hit the long box straight. so its free to do?
its a comp with a pro as the coach 10 to a group 10 groups i think. riders from the group decide which one of the 10 in the group get to go into the final group. the final group is 10 riders all head to head. first place gets to go to mammoth free and ski with the salomon natinal team with all the other winners from the other stops. im pretty sure i got it all right
