The wind was not really happening so we all headed to the mountain. The REAL Crew meet up with the 2nd Wind, Liquid Force and the Trew Crews to head up to the mountain. Pepe and the 2nd Wind guys hooked us up with the gear we were missing to go ride. The Trew guys drove all of us up in their RV and outfitted us with some rad outer wear. We had a blast on the way up to the hill.
By the time we got up there the blue skies changed to gray and cloudy ones. We hopped on the lift. It was cold and as foggy as could be. Just as we passed the last lift pole the fog broke and we were above the clouds and it was sunny with the most amazing view of the summit.
We rode all morning hitting the park and just cruising. Chris Buke (a UK Kiter) took his first turns with us that morning. By the time he was half way down the hill he was linking turns and hoping 180s, amazing! Ruben was throwing the craziest face plants and slezy was throwing down like usual. I scored a couple runs with out my gear and had a good time on one of the kickers and the rainbow rail. We all had a great time on the mountain. Riding in the summer had been a long time goal of mine ever since I was a little grom.
We headed back from the mountain to say good-bye to Lulu, Brandon and Claire as they had to catch their flights back to Hatteras. We took a quick nap than caught up with Charlie Burwell and CO. for dinner at the country club. What a great day!
