Sunday night pool sessions with the Go Pro

Last night we had our weekly pool session at the South County YMCA. I had a great time and was finally able to get my double pump down and go into a bow stall. The freestyle moves are slowly coming along. I also decided to bring the Go Pro and test out its waterproof case in the pool. Enjoy until the next adventure.

First Ski trip for 2011, Sundown Mountain

So this last weekend, I left for the first ski trip on the season. Rocking the new K2’s and the Go Pro Hero cam. Cody picked Tyler and me up after school and we took off for Sundown Mountain ski resort. After a bit of a bender at the Alpine Shop, and some rough traffic, everything was smoothed out once we cracked opened some bottles on the drive. (The driver of course was not drinking, Thanks Cody.)

Leaving STL

Needless to say after the long drive and multiple pee stops, I was feeling good when we meet up with Chris and the rest of the group.

The boys sound asleep

Sundown had some nice snow and we took full advantage of it. Both days were cold, but not to bad. 8 hours of skiing does put a toll on the legs, and come Monday, our bodies were sore. We work up Monday to 3 inches of fresh snow, but unfortunately had to make the drive back to St. Louis. We saw over 50 cars/trucks stuck on the side of the road, but made it home safe and sound. Here is a little video I made of the trip while driving home, Chris has some nice rail footage, but I unable to to get it, enjoy until the next adventure.
