Road trips

With the lack of snow on the Island this last month we were getting a
little too antsy to sit around so we headed out on holiday road. First we went
out to Banff and hit up Sunshine Village. It was my first time out to the
rockies and it was awesome! The weather was perfect; sunny and cold and we got
lots of killer pics and footage for our new movie project. We'll definitely be
going back again. Thanks a lot to Doug Firby for the great hospitality. www.skibanff.com

Patrick Kitto
enjoying the cold smoke out in Banff. Mmm Mmm good

When we got
home there was still not very much snow so we packed up some clean undies and
headed out again, this time to Whistler. Whistler is always wicked and this trip
was no exception. We shredded the opening day of Blackcomb and then Whistler the
next day and it rocked ( my board and my mind ) haha. Early season conditions
joke... Thanks to Ryan Proctor for hooking us up. www.whistlerblackcomb.com

Myles col' kickin' it with his
favourite run on Blackcomb behind him: the Sudan
Couloir

When we got home from Whistler, guess what? Still
not that much snow. So we packed up some more clean undies and headed out again,
this time to Golden. Now if you've been to Kicking Horse you know it's rad.
Steep, deep and gnarly. We had a wicked time there until the third day when the
temperatures were a cool -28 in the hills and our nostrils were sticking
together when we went outdoors. We all looked like Michael Jackson with our
noses frozen closed so we bundled our Vancouver Island butts back into the
truck, cranked the heat and headed back west. Thanks to Jordan Petrovics for the
hook up.

Matty, Joe and our
main man Eric. "Close the damn door, it's cold!" Thanks to Eric for setting us
up so good. You rule Rolston!

Matt Trigg riding some deep, cold
stuff with Ole in the background filming. Trigger kind of looks like Darth Vader
coming out of there.

Back
Home
Now don't get me wrong, we've had a few good days of hiking
around here. We've been noboarding up the hill quite a bit and even hitting some
urban stuff in town with the cold temperatures.

No bindings? No
problem... Ole loves noboarding. photo by Patrick Kitto

Avalanche Course Coming Up January 24,

Avalanche is the greatest hazard facing "out of bounds" backcountry
snowboarders, skiers, sledders and ice climbers. This course is a must for those
venturing into the backcountry and highly recommended from your friends at
JumpCamp.

Have a safe and happy holiday.
See ya in the hills.

Mt.Washed has closed for the season even though there's still 400cms of snow up there so we've taken to the sleds lots more lately.

Triggydog scopes out the lines as ol' man Dan makes his way back to the sled.

Nial and Ole, a couple of colourful sled bros.

The weather's been amazing here on the Island, we rode deep powder twice this last week! We also found ourselves a nice road gap on our travels in the backcountry.

Kitto launchin' over Rocky; Trigg's faithful backcountry furball.

Ole sold his sled so who knows what he'll bring to tow people around for the last camp. Maybe a tractor? You never know.

Bonus Camp April 19, 20! With all the snow we had to throw one more session. Register at Onethirtythree board shop in Courtenay (250) 897-1907, online or call anytime to secure your spot and get your last shred in for the season.

Pick a camp, any camp... No wait, there's only one left! Bye bye.

Bonus JumpCamp Session April 19, 20!

Well, with all the snow in the hills the season is still going strong even though all the resorts seem to be closing. Some people have got their golf clubs out or maybe their gardening tools but not us, no way! We've got 10 feet of snow in the hills and beautiful sun and perfect slushy snow to shred so we're having a bonus camp on April 19, 20. Beg, borrow or steal your way up to this camp cause it's your last chance to improve your shred skills and ride the JumpCamp parks.

The first two JumpCamp’s rocked!


Mother nature was a real doll and gave us some killer weather and the snow conditions were soft and slushy, perfect for jumping and freeriding. Campers were stoked on all the new features in the park and all the natural terrain on Forbidden that we sessioned.



..
We even set up a cliff feature for some adventurous campers to launch. Campers really impressed me with their drive to learn new tricks and strengthen their riding. Tons of camper firsts went down over the course of the two sessions; First time grabs, spins, spins with grabs, inverted spins... It was insane! All the campers had a wicked time and really progressed their skills a lot. Thanks to all our sponsors and coaches for an amazing set of camps. Keep checking back for all the pics from the camps in the photo section of the site.


New JumpCamp whip: a quad.

Fresh pow in March? Yep, you got it. We’ve had some sweet days up the hill lately. With the amount of snow still on Forbidden we’re going to be shreddin’ into the summertime!


march 17 no lie eh.

Coach Olaf Larsen col’ kickin’ it in his mini dump. ( call Ole if you need anything dumped, he’s your man )

Yummies and Gyros rule! They sponsor the camps and man are their gyro’s good. I guess that’s why it’s called Yummies and Gyros. Go get yourself a delicious gyro or donair next time you’re in Courtenay. Thanks to Katherine and the gals for hooking up the campers and coaches with those delicious beef and lamb delights.




JumpCamp Jam a hit! We shralped the park, barbequed some nice dogs, jibbed our brains out and then guess what? We shralped some more! That’s right. Our broski Paul Henderson even came out to hang for the jam. We’re gonna do another one mid April so stay tuned for the date.


Prizes! Our sponsors are the best!

Coach Doug Hardy teaching a valuable lesson on getting inverted.

JumpCamp session 4 March 29, 30 comin’ up fast! Still a few spots available. Register today to secure your spot and improve your shred!

YoYoYo!

Well, the camps are all over for another season. What a killer year! Thanks to all the coaches and sponsors for making this year such a success. We love you guys.

The JumpCamp wrap-up party was killer. Thanks to DJ Souls and Klink & Polish for rockin' all night! 

Coach Matt Brown has lost his cell phone again. This will be his 352nd phone he's lost and the folks down at Roger's are really loving him right now.

 In sad JumpCamp news, our pal of 13 years passed away last week. We will all miss him greatly and remember the fun times with our furry bro. Goodbye buddy.

R.I.P. Griff 1994 - 2007 

  

We've been going to Mount Arrowsmith lots lately. It's like Forbidden's little brother and we love shredding and bbqing up there. The only thing about Arrowsmith is that the local whiskey jack's are real territorial and are constantly divebombing us and trying to snatch our food. One flew into my mouth when I was eating last trip, no lie.

Also on that trip Brian broke his board and Ole got caught in a nice size avalanche. Ole was alright since he's very experienced in the backcountry but it still shook him up pretty good. "Whoowee!", he had to say after swimming out of the snow. Avalanches are serious, even in the spring time so be careful and keep an eye on each other out there.

 

 

The critics have spoken: "This Was Your Life"delivers!
