Wednesday - in a Tornado of Good Times with Snowboard Realms and Alcatraz

Wednesday started off as one of those great days where nothing could have made it better! Absolutely, nothing! 15 or so cm of new snow, an incredible group of people and Dagmar's fun mini bike park! See what I mean, how could it get any better! Alcatraz's Jay King put on the whole deal and was furiously doing laps through the OMP. I was at the bottom with all of next years Capita boards and Union Bindings and Jay's smile just kept getting bigger and bigger every lap! Beaver and I were in the tent with demo rookie Justin Jopling enjoying the non-stop comedy and constant heckling that is the demo experience. Jay wasn't the only one with a huge smile going by tent city residents. Sanctions Adam W and Simon, Alcatraz's Wayne Richard and pappa MO, The Boarding Huts Chris Steddy and Adrian, industry types like Houghton, Skin, Ricci, Sayer, Ciccone and of course Powling were mixing it up on-hill with the likes of Taylor Hill, Justin Jopling, Matt BujokSKI, Dani Brown, Natalie Gough and so forth and so on. I could continue on with this typhoon of name dropping but man I have stuff to do today (secret jib mission)and besides your going to see it when TJ post's the Ontario edition of Snowboard Realms.
