Day 38 | freakin awesome free ryde


Today is the first day since I started work (on U.S. Thanksgiving) that I spent the day freeriding on my day off.  I've got 37 days into the 100 day season and all 37 of those days have been on the snow for work.  I made plans with a co-worker who also has Fridays off and a friend who just started snowboarding to meet up for a day of riding.  The plan also included Crystal Hut waffles!!

We all met on the EBCB patio around 9:30am and we loaded the village gondola.  Weather wise temps were inverted and precipitation was in the forecast.  It was predicted to be snow but it was rain and freezing rain (bummer).  After a couple warm up runs down Ego Bowl, we took the Peak to Peak over to Blackcomb.  We ran up Crystal Chair and then into the hut for waffles.  YUM!

We spent the rest of the afternoon on Blackcomb running mostly blues and hitting every jump and drop we could find.  The entire day is caught on video and we all had a blast!  The snow wasn't great as it was very wet but at least it wasn't ice.  We finished the day with a lap through the Terrain Garden.  Once we were back in the village, we all agreed today was our best day yet this season.
