    I made a t-shirt on Teespring.com and you can buy one for as little as $15.04. They will arrive on your front door around Christmas so they would work as the perfect Christmas gift for someone or for yourself!

  2. This was a fun weekend! Thanks to everyone who spent so much time to make this tournament happen! This was a much better experience than going to our local tournament. This is because everyone that came to this tournament absolutely loves to ski. Everyone was having a blast this weekend! It's a privilege to ski with people that are this passionate about this sport. Thanks again to everyone who set this tournament up and made this such a fun experience!

  3. When I moved up to B3, I was not running 34 yet. Everyone was saying that 36 is so scary and they tell me about all of the horrible falls they've taken. I ran 34 very soon after I moved up to B3. Because I was running 34 most of the time, I started practicing 36. I was very scared to ski 36 the first time. 36 seems very fast compared to 34, however I feel like the difference in the wakes is the biggest difference. At 15 off, the wakes at 36 are non-existent. There is only "rough water". There still are wakes at 34 so this is a big difference for me. I have found that at 36 you are in the rooster tail at 22 off though. I have taken some "fun" falls, but have never taken a fall that actually hurt me. After I was getting deeper into 36, I got more comfortable with the speed and I was not scared of it. In my opinion, the scariest part of 36 is caused by not being comfortable with the speed and everyone telling you their worst experiences of 36.
  4. I took lessons from Trent L. two seasons ago (I'm 14 now). He helped me get my 30 mph pass down and got me into 32 mph. He is a very great coach and has an awesome way of explaining things. Take any opportunity you have to take lessons with him. Things that he said just clicked with me and helped set the ground for more improvement. I hope I helped :)
