its a bit big considering its my first but i feel i can handel a 162 really well, got a few jumps n things done

been in mayrhofen last week and went to the vans penken park. was pretty sick

and going between runs through the 3 foot snow was awsome

i sent them some vids and pictures etc, then they sent me some stuff and that was last i heard from them. after that i gave one pair of glasses to my dad, and the others are still in my wardrobe.
oh they said get some pictures wearing the tshirt they sent, (that they didnt send) thats where the communication broke down

im no where near as good as i used to be but hopefully ill get some time off in summer to get out there
