Leaving Las Vegas

After a five-day long bender, I’m headed back to Keystone.

Pics and stories to come…

X-Games Day 4

Women’s slopestlye finals went down today. Slow snow and poor visibility made it difficult for the girls to perform. After a long day on the slopes we headed up to the top of Aspen Mountain where Monster Energy hosted a thrilling party.
