What a great weekend I just had!

Winter X games is awesome!  The guys from Monster energy flew me out to Aspen Colorado the site of this years Winter X, and it was great to see the contest live.

My favourite was the Snow Mobiles, lightening fast around the track, and Monster’s Tucker Hibbert made everyone look like they were on tricycles,Brilliant!

Snowboard Superpipe is wild, that thing is a long as a football pitch and they are all doing 1080’s and huge airs carving what looked like 40ft, Bonkers I’ll tell you!

On the Saturday night Monster had a big old party at the Gondola, now to get to this you had to take a 20 minute ski lift ride, both myself and Jake Brown went out in hoodie’s and it was 12 degrees out, so as you can imagine the ski lift was like an ice cube, good job Jake”45ft drop” Brown can handle tough situations, and was rewarded with a tasty drink when he got there, I think it was Lo-carb Monster, yeah right!

Anyhow, So what made the weekend for me was that I got to go snowboarding for only the second time ever, thanks to Seth and Lee at the Burton stand they hooked me up with a sweet 08 board and I was off. I had a blast all weekend, even when Tintsman watched me cartwheel down the mountain, ouch!

So now I am hooked on Snowboarding, and after a brief stop at Woodward Copper, I can’t wait to get back out and hit the mountains.

Big Thanks go out to Seth, John,Hollywood, Jason and Jessica from Monster energy for hooking me up and renting out the Gigantic Monster house(Nice 10 Million dollar pad).

To PLG and Jake Brown, for constantly waking me up at all hours, and giving all my Snowboard gear away to the San Diego Chargers Players, Thanks fellas!

John Povah at Etnies for hooking up the 32 Boots!

To Jake Brown for introducing me to everyone on the planet(including LiL Jon),being a constant source of entertainment and for being concerned after he thought I had fell asleep on the Ski lift at 2am and frozen to death! Winner!

And to all the guys from Grenade that I met, good crew, thanks for hooking me up with gear(that Dr Chow now has) THE DINGO is an animal and Danny Kass has a massive DOG!

Its Snow Joke!

Well firstly let me say merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to everyone, I hope you all had a good one and that the big man in red with the white beard hooked you all up nicely! and that you all made a great new years resolution!

My Christmas was great Santa claus gave me Asthmatic Bronchitis and I had a lovely time coughing up my lungs and having hot and cold spells whilst my family was enjoying Christmas, Hurray!

I even missed out on the Boxing day festivities down at Pride Park for the Derby V Liverpool match, it was no surprise that Derby lost and are doing a fine job of propping up the premier league.
Well, the Bronchitis lasted till New Years eve, but with the help of my doctor and prescription medicine I started to feel alot better.

New years was great I slept through the whole thing, completely wiped out from not sleeping and coughing all the time. Fantastic!

Plenty more Blogs to come I am playing catch up.
Here’s to a great 2008 everyone, I hope you all have a great year.
All the best
