Jump Jump Jumps!!

My weekend was super rad! It all started saturday morning waking up to rain!!!!! I got a call from Harrison that morning, we were trying to figure out what to do. I received a text message from my friend Brad Mills from Vernon. He was telling me that his jumps were super dialed in and it was beautiful over there. So, I called my friend and photographer Mike Kirk to see if he wanted to go and sure enough he had nothing better to do. It was a super rad day but unfortunately there were a few injuries. This time not to me but to my friends Aubrey and Brandon. Get Better Guys!! Mike and I shot for about an hour and a half so I would be able to write this blog :p
Sunday - My good friend and fellow shredder Brian Mueller spent the night so we could go to Harrison's house early. I woke up to smelling gourmet scrambled eggs thanks to my dad and a phone call from my friend Scott Milton asking if he and another friend could get a ride. I knew it was going to be a good session. Harrison's yard has become super dialed over the last few months. We added a slalom line and have been tweaking it tons to get it perfect, even though it isn't perfect yet, its the best place around in Kelowna. Harrison and I planned to film super hard for a school project that we are doing. The video we are making is also going to be played at the NWD 10 premier this Thursday. Pretty stoked on that!!!!
My highlight of the weekend though was definitely when I was at Harrison's. I recently had been landing 360 Tail Whips EVERY single time on different jumps and as well I 360'd The drop in the main line. I decided it was time to step my game up and throw together a competition worthy line. I consisted of a 360 Tail Whip on the first jump (gnarly) then a 360 off the drop followed by a tuck no hander on the long and low set up jump into a flip whip on the last jump that I slid out on, but it was a rowdy line.
