Nice busy day.
Posted by C at 15:49So the girls left yesterday, pretty sure they had a great time here. They got home safe. Was cool having them here! Sucks that we only have 3 weeks left, gonna cram as much riding in as possible. Sick weather today, pretty busy though, we got a ride from a women who had the dopest dog, a boxer puppy called roxy ha. Peace
In-N-Out
Posted by C at 18:26We went to Reno yesterday. Linda sorted us out with a lift. Checked out the new mall with some pretty sweet shops an that. Got the best Burger ever at IN-N-OUT, actually imense. Had a really good day. Woke up to a nuts blue bird today. Northstar was empty to. Had some fun with the girls, whittle slashed some skiers ha. Becca fell bad and busted her knee, had a nice trip down on the blood wagon. Now shes on crutches, shes cool. At least they only have one day left though. Whittle took off his cast today, we performed some home surgery. Now hes ready to shred ha. Peace.
Trip back
Posted by whittle1 at 16:59So, i had a really good time in England, got to chill with people iv not seen in a while, mainly elle, which was quality. headed to London for a day, cruised around and generally chilled. Valentines day etc... Was all good! My flight back here was so sick, i was checking in and because of my ir mile situation, it was only an extra $100 to upgrade to business class! so went for it! was so sick, chilled in the lounge to begin, treated like royalty all the way, a few glasses of wine, champers and beer later, i arrived in San Fran and checked into the Red Carpet club there, which was sick, more free food and drink! Flew over the Golden Gate bridge and downtown Frisco. Been lucky with my flight routes! finally arrived in Reno, headed back up the hill to Tahoe, just as the sun was setting. good timing! been taking it easy on the snowboard, just cruising around. barely doing much but is fun. now were looking forward to riding the kicker line, footage will follow... watch this space.
Dew Slopestyle
Posted by J at 22:27
Went up Northstar for a couple of runs before checking out the slopestyle finals of the Dew Tour this afternoon. Definitely some crazy spins from the riders and the kickers were impressive but not as much floaty style and corking as I would have liked. A couple of 1260's and many 1080's later, Torstein took the win at Northstar but Shaun White has won overall slopestyle from winning the previous 2 events. Common made an appearance at a concert they had down in the village, loads of people turned out but it wasnt as good as we'd hoped as he played quite abit of his new stuff and it was colddd. Looking forward to seeing the pipe on sunday. Click images to enlarge...
Dew tour Starts!
Posted by C at 16:49
No photos yet but its getting pretty busy at Northstar. It officially started today but on practices on the pipe and slopestyle course. Its got hot again, weve got to wait till sunday night for some new snow. Its crazy at Northstar Loads of pros walking round. Also me and jonny were waiting in the line for the park when shaun white comes straight past us, turns out they have a space on their lift and jonny gets to sit next to him! Was nuts. Whittle gets here tonight which is sweet. Gonna get loads of photos of the comp and common tomorrow. Peace out for now!
Winters finally here.

Bit of a swell on the lake to ha. Its a blackout day tomorrow aswell so i think we are going to Reno to check out the mall an that. Happy valentines day to all! peace

For all the complainers.... Powder day!
Posted by C at 15:22Poor conditions
Posted by C at 16:32
Been hearing loads about the storms heading our way, although we are yet to see any real signs of them. Been waking up the last couple of days to a really light sprinkling, Generally melts on the roads by about 11 though. Fingers crossed for a real dump tomorrow. Was mad misty at northstar today, and the busiest we've ever seen it. The slight chance of snow seemed to make everyone come up. So we cancelled pretty early today. Hopefully get some footage and photos when it snows properly.
Yo to everyone at home, whittle comes back on 18th, not soon enough haha wagon! Proper post soon! peace
Trip Home
Posted by whittle1 at 07:38Flew back to the UK day before yesterday and it all went pretty well, was on a pretty crazy plane from Reno to LA and we flew directly over downtown LA which was sick, and if you look closely, you can even see the Hollywood sign in there. Was 65/70 degrees in LA, and minus 5 in England. Loads of snow and crazy delays in Heathrow. I had to wait for 3hours after wed landed, becuase there was no gate!! Just got back from hospital and all they did was put a cast on it!! Could of stayed in the States and had that done. Cast off in 3 weeks then back on the SHRED!!
More Lake Photos...
