I would love to show you video of all the quad corks and 1880's that went down but I can't, mainly cause its an Olympic year so I gotta keep it all top secret and what not! But instead here is a little fun video I put together of all the other things we did! Mammoth. Always good times and good friends! Next Stop Hood in July! <br />

Sorry I have been so long in posting. A lot has happened since the US Open, I got 7th at X Games in Tignes, got 3rd and the Throwback Throwdown and broke my collar bone! I am now getting ready to head to Mammoth CA for three weeks of private training with the rest of the US Snowboard Team. Here are some photos to get you guys caught up on the last month. <br />

HI everyone!! Sorry I didn't keep people up to date as this event was going along. I really should have let you all know where to watch me and how I was doing after Semi finals! Fortunately there is a webcast reply online so if you happened to miss any of the amazing action you can go back and check it all out. I will post the LINK at the bottom of this post! Sorry again /:<br />
<br />
So now that that's outta the way. This years USO was awesome, the move from Stratton to Vail really was a good choice. Although I miss my native state of VERMONT, Vail was able to provide us with a phenomenal venue, lodging and the best halfpipe I have ridden to date! I should probably tell you that semi-finals went ok for me. I just made it into finals qualifying 11th outta the 12 finals spots. Everyone that made finals really deserved to be there!<br />
<br />
Alrighty, skip to finals day! Saturday the second was a gorgeous day, beautiful weather, perfect pipe and my parents were able to fly out and watch. I woke up feeling super great, practice went well and I was feeling great for my runs. It would make me sound ungrateful if I said I was disappointed with 5th place. I rode the best I have inside of competition this year,...BUT not one of my three runs was executed as well as I would have liked and I really felt like I could have stood on the podium.<br />
<br />
The part that made my day though was that both Arielle and Taylor had great days. Taylor finished 6th and Rel in third place. For the three of us all to have top ten finishes at one of the biggest events of the year was a great feeling, I would say our house is a pretty decent threat. Haha. Check out the photos below!<br />

The temps here in the Rosa Khutor mountains have been nothing like winter, the last two days have been warm and rainy, today especially. The pipe has been an adventure to put it positively, and that's all I'm gonna say because I have to compete in the thing in 13 hours. Here are a few more photos, wish me good luck!<br />

So here is all that went down for me and for Arielle, who everyone is gonna be seeing alot of, like it or NOT!!! HAHA.<br />
<br />
So Arielle and I flew from Denver to Zurich on the 2nd and the hopped on the train that took us over to Laax. The BEO has always had amazing rider hospitality and didnt disappoint this year. We got put up in a sweet two bedroom condo and all our meals covered. The only downside was that Swiss Air lost our bags and we were now forced to pay 100CHF to have them delivered to our place the next day, thanks alot United/Swiss Air. <br />
<br />
Right away it started dumping snow, so our first day of practice was canceled, which was convienent cause we didn't have our bags. So due to the weather I only had a hour of practice the next day before semi finals. I completely fell on my first run and then barely held on to my last run and my score didnt quite make the cut. I was bummed for sure but what made up for it was that Taylor Gold stomped his runs and made it to his first major final!! Kid is riding very very well right now.<br />

So after we had ridden pow for two days it was time for the Halfpipe Final. Both Taylor and Arielle were riding well so I was very excited to see all the action go down. Taylor landed is first safety run and got what I thought was a bit of a low score. On his final run he threw down a very sick front double ten but couldnt quite hold on to the rest of the run.<br />
<br />
The girls final was a tough one, lots of snow and wind making for horrible visability. But Reli Belli came through and put down a run good enough to win. Beating out Kelly Clark and taking home the Burton European Open title and 15 GRAND!! This girl is on a roll. Its her fourth podium in a row and I expect that streak to continue. Scroll down for her run and photos.<br />

X GAMES IS OVER. It was a crazy week, I didnt end up riding well at all in pipe semi finals so that was disappointing. But on the whole the week was amazing. Between meeting Shawn Johnson and watching my surrogate little sister Arielle get Third I had a great time! Check the photos!<br />

Since practice didn't start till 7pm I had a very leisurely day, took and nap, ate lunch, hot tub, etc. Maddy and I also went and found this super chill spot right behind out house, Maddy played the bongos and I did backies! Haha it was a pretty fun afternoon. Thanks to coach Rick for the photo<br />

Then I woke up early this morning and drove to Gypsum High School with my North Face teammate Kaitlyn Farrington. We spent the morning talking to students about their effect on OUR planet as part of the POW organization, (<a href="http://protectourwinters.org/" target="_blank">http://protectourwinters.org/</a> ). That went really well, met a few cool kids and signed a bunch of autographs. More importantly we tuned kids into what is happening to our planet.<br />

X GAMES is upon us!!! I moved down from my house in Breck to Aspen last night. Our first practice is tonight and I must say I am feeling a few contest jitters already. That being said I had an awesome last week riding Breck and got my runs dialed in with some big new tricks. Gotta say thanks alot to Breckenridge for giving me and the rest of the US Snowboard Team private pipe time with snowmobiles so that we could practice. Coming in clutch, thanks alot guys!! Can anyone guess this trick below?<br />

On another note, I just got a fresh new stack of my 2014 Zion Z1's !! They are looking REALLY sick. I stickered this one up last night!

DEW TOUR IS OVER!! I guess I shouldnt say that because it wasent the best for me and I would love a shot at redemption. That being said it still was a good time and I had a lot of fun.<br />
Pipe semis for me were on thursday and everything seemed to be clicking for me. My practice session went well and I entered both of my runs with full confidence. On my first run I held back a little bit hoping what I put down would be rewarded with a good score. My score came in not what I had hoped and after one full run I was left on the outside of the final cut looking in. I made the decision to step it up and put down a run I know would get me into finals. But on my second run I fell on a Front 12, only the second time ever in competition and was left to sit and watch finals. That's what you get for leaving things a little to late and I learned the hard way.<br />
Even though my week was cut short I still had fun. Played a ton of ping pong in the riders lounge and I think Seb (Toutant) has officially become my arch rival behind the paddle! HAHA. Kaitlyn Farrington and Mike Riddle both ended up on the podium to so it was nice to see my North Face teammates have success! Here are some photos of the entire Dew Tour week.<br />

Well I just drove back in a snow storm from dropping my mum of at the Airport. She is headed back to Vermont and I am now looking at an awesome season ahead. Having my mother here to visit me for a week was a unforgettable experience. Sometimes it seems that the farther apart you live from someone the closer you become, sharing the last few days with her has been a blessing. Here are some pictures and stories from an awesome week!<br />

It's an awesome feeling being able to show the one who raised me just how much I've grown. Be able to kinda of show off what I do and where I live. And for her to put faces and places behind all the stories she's heard!! <br />
<br />
So this morning we got up and drove over to Frisco, the plan was to go on a short little hike up Miners Creek. But as always you don't stop when you're having fun right? We ended up "going a little bit more" and following paths that would make Robert Frost proud till we ended up 10 miles over the hill and back in Breck! It was certainly more fun then maybe we had planned and I saw parts of Summit County that I have never seen in my three winters of living here.<br />
<br />
Here are a couple pictures from our little hike!!<br />
