Update after a few weeks, the snowboarding here is still sick. We got a big dump of snow (about a foot on Sunday) and conditions have been great these past few days. Sliding on snow makes me happy 😃 ❄️

In pic 1 we’ve got the coolest freeze frame I could get from a video of me hitting a little natural jump. Meanwhile, slide 2 is the actual video (gotta work on the windmilling arms and going bigger, but u can still grab cool shots I guess)

Pic 3 is a lovely 1.5 hour line wrapping through the upper village area. One of the biggest snowfalls of the season happened on Sunday and I think all of Vancouver decided to show up Next powder day needs to be a weekday 🙏, but it’s still worth.

Pic 4 - my dad is visiting this week, been cool to hang out with him some and see him progressing his snowboarding too!

Pic 5 - POV you go to dinner w me and try to snap a pic of me eating my salad 🥗 🥬! Stay healthy out there homies (featuring the heinously unhealthy poutine bowl I got as a side)

Pic 6 - rly lame looking picture but we had a pretty gnarly drop in to snipe some great fresh pow turns on a run called Bushrat off an area called Chainsaw Ridge.

Pic 7 - some views from the same area, lots of cool exposed alpine terrain up on Blackcomb.

Pic 8 is just some lil stream I thought was aesthetic but it didn’t rly translate in the photo but eh there it is.

Expect more content and more rambly descriptions whenever I get around to posting again ✌️
