You googled my what?


So, I've got these google links all over my blog in various locations. Legally, I can't tell you to click them, but I figure I can tell you to look at them and see if you're interested in anything. There actually may be some things that you might want to click on. I know for a while I had a link to the Whistler website and some other snowboarding pages that seemed interesting.
Just a friendly FYI.
Catch you on the snowside.

Dumping in Tahoe

My friend Chelsea headed up to Tahoe on Saturday and she said that the shred is siiick right now. She's got a place in Homewood and she's gonna be up there for ten days. Jealous much.

I be driving up to Kirkwood for my first trip of the season on Monday and I can't wait. It's supposed to dizzz-ump tomorrow and be all fresh pow on Tuesday. Yeaah boy. Ready to get my shred on. I have a good feeling about this winter. Things are gonna be good.

Hopefully Chels will make it out to Kirkwood on Tuesday and tear it up with me. Look out for this girl. We've got a future together in the snowboard industry.

Get me out of this city.

The best things in life are free.

Or let me rephrase; The best thing in life is getting free stuff sent to your house. Ohhh yeah. I never entered contests when I was younger because I figured I wouldn't win anyways so why bother, right? My mom was always like "You never knowwww" and she'd win things every once in a while. I just recently started entering every contest I find and it's paying off. Greatly. Every time there was a give away or contest at Windells I hit it up and ended up with a bunch of shirts and beanies. I happened talked to the right person and ended up with this sick Bonfire jacket as well (retail price; $280). Back at home I started lurking around snowboard company websites and discovered a whole new world of contests. I sadly did not win any thing on 686 Day, but I played Rome's Steal That Banner game and won that. My new Rome jacket just came in the mail yesterday (original price; $229.95). It's prettty sick. And then a week ago I played a game on the Volcom website and this morning I woke up to this email;
"Hello
You are a winner in our recent Volcom Girls Holiday competition.
Please send me your size and your full address and telephone number (by
tomorrow if possible!) and I will post your prize.
Thanks for entering and Merry Christmas!
Josie"


And let me tell you; that is a great e-mail to wake up to on your last day of finals. So, I'll be getting one of these items in the mail from Volcom soon as well.



Oh, and I almost forgot; I won a sweatshirt from Sierra Nevada College a little while back, and I have a "swag bag" in the mail right now over from the folks at Shred Union.
Moral of the story; enter contests, win cash-money. Well, prizes worth cash money.

PS. Be like me and stop by Burton.com in the next couple of days. They've got major giveaways all week that you won't want to miss.

Trashy Snow Sluts

Not this type. Sorry, I'm talking about the trashy people that leave crap all over the snow. This topic just came up on Shredunion.com and it's one that I think needs some more light shed upon it. Let's face it, no one likes riding down a hill and seeing crap all over the place.

"You mean I shouldn't just throw my redbull can and clifbar wrapper on the snow when I'm done?"
No, Phatman, you should not. If someone sees you do this it's entirely possible, and highly probable, that they will beat you with their board and then proceed to jib your bloody carcass.

Bottom line, pick yo' shit up. It's not that hard to pocket your candy wrapper or hold on to your drink until you get to a garbage can. And another thought, real shredders don't take 'smoke breaks' half way down the mountain. No one wants their beautiful white stuff spotted with butts.
Keep it clean. Kaythanks.
