I had a super fun race yesterday in Kreischberg, Austria. It was an awesome event. I was super stoked with my riding. I was close to advancing to semi’s, but just came up short. I was bummed, not being able to continue riding, as it was such a fun hill and perfect snow. The crowd was insane; there were a few thousand people at the bottom. Nothing like snowboard racing in Austria; they know how to do it right. The race was aired live across Europe on ORF-1. Unfortunately Zac was sick and was not able to start, so I had to step it up and get the job done for the both of us. He’s feeling better and I know will bounce back strong. We’re at Kreuzeberg Pass, Italy for a few days training and relaxing. It’s one of my favorite places in the world. Kreuzeberg is located in the Dolomite mountains in the Sud-Tirol region of Italy. I’m staring at the radest view of the mountains from my room. We’re training hard the next few days, getting ready for a Europa Cup at Nendaz, Switzerland on Jan. 14th, the same hill we will race the next World Cup and qualifier on Jan. 17th. We’ll be working hard this week to try and find the podium in Nendaz. To set the record straight I’m currently leading the 2010 AST Chess Championship. It feels so good. Bring it on Zac – you’re my chess bitch. Thanks for all your support. Happy 2010!
