Utah.
Well, as Erik has already explained, we started out late in the world of blogging, and now we are paying the price by throwing lots of stuff at you all at once.
So somewhere in between the occurrences of Superpark and Spring Boardmeet, Dean Ferrari and I ventured west toward Salt Lake City, Utah. Salt Lake is great for several things, snowboarding, skiing, and being Mormon top the list. However if you journey there and fancy yourself a drink of the alcoholic type, you will be sorely disappointed.
Anyways, the entire trip was essentially one giant powder day. Storm after storm after storm managed to roll through and hit us hard.
Bozwrecked!

Premature photo. Dean fs180 this sick teeny bopper at Brighton.
We got one solid day of filming park lines at Brighton when it wasnt pouring snow all over our faces. Powder riding is a completely different animal than us Midwest kids are used to.
So. after riding our third day in Salt Lake. We decided to venture out to the infamous Rail Gardens just to have a looksy at the most popular handrail spot in the world.

Snowboarders come here? How can you tell?
Unfortunately the lack of snow prevented us from actually hitting any of these amazing rails.
Anyways. Back to the present, we are currently working on our teaser. You can expect to see the results here in the next couple weeks. Get hyped.

Superpark (re-visited!?)
Yes yes, it's has became that time we all knew was coming. Time-travel. Not literally, but we're all out of snow here in Michigan and due to our late start in the blogging world of the interweb, to keep the stoke up, you'll be noticing blogs from past winter trips. Top Drawer!
So this particular adventure goes by the name of Superpark and is a pretty big deal for a lot of us in the Midwest. Not only does Marquette Mountain set up a rad park, but it's nearly spring riding and all the homies are back together.
My car at Wonfor's house prior to departure.
Let me introduce, Billy Hoffman
"Aren't these colors just breathtaking?"
After around 3 and a half hours of driving we met up with our friend Billy. He was a trooper for the remainder of the 7-hour drive through the baran tundra of two-lane highways that are the Upper Peninsula. Not too mention record-holder for most pasty stops known to man.
So after a quality night of sleep at the Travelodge, we hit Marquette the next morning. Friday was not an ordinary day, it was Cam's birthday. So naturally we went birthday snowboarding in our birthday gear on the birthday snow......right?
Birthday Park!
Thanks to the hospitality of our friend Mike Forester, everyone had a place to hang out apres' ski and get loose at. Word!
Birthday Moustache!
Saturday was perfect. Everyone was hyped and getting down with their goggle tans, not too mention sessioning this super random feature known as the ice monster. We met up with some Minnesota boys, Jordan Michilot and Ricky Tucker and got some film time in.
Ice Monster!
Jordan!
Tommy!
After everyone got done with the shred, the night yet again ended up at Forester's.
That next morning we all said our goodbyes and pointed it back to the homestead. Sorry kids, but tear-jerkers......yeah they happen, and when they do, you cry like Jamie Lynn Spears at Planned Parenthood. Get ready.
Oh yeah, I almost forgot.
Until next timoustache!

Spring Board!
This weekend everyone headed out to Boyne Highlands sometime on friday, excited to catch a weekend of bluebird skies, linking turns and getting loose with some of the homies we all wish we could see more....
Yeah, so Mother Nature threw us a curveball on this one
That's my car saturday morning, 3-4 fresh inches on april 13th. Record year?
The shred on saturday was fun, aside from the slush underneath the snow because naturally we got doused with rain earlier on friday. Mancino's was where it all really went down......
Hotspot for the weekend.
The post-shred after party at the condos.....
Kyle Fischer even came out from Colorado for the weekend
The next day proceeded to be 45 and bluebird. The type of day that makes spring riding, "spring riding." Rad.
Brandon getting upside down! (P. C'ron)
Touche!
