FOR’AMS AT WINTER DEW TOUR - BRECKENRIDGE
12.23.2008
For’ams, Daniel Ek, Greg Bretz, Ian Thorley, and Trevor Jacob spent some time in Breckenridge, Colorado for the first stop of the Winter Dew Tour. With temps dipping well below the -15 degree mark, the riders still managed to bring some heat to the contest. Daniel and Greg both finished 8th in their respective disciplines. Daniel Ek threw a backside 7, frontside 10, and attempted his first ever backside double-cork 1080 on this first run in finals. He nearly put the double-cork down, but a small hand-drag and revert kept his score outside of the podium.
Greg Bretz made it to pipe finals, and took one hell of a spill in his first run, decking on a 1080 and firing himself to the bottom of the pipe where he split his helmet open. After shaking off the whoozies, Greg dropped in for his second run and stuck a great line from top to bottom. Unfortunately, some of the other heavy hitters bumped him into 8th position as well.

FOA EUROPEAN TOUR STOP IN FRANCE
10.15.2008
On the hot drive to France, the Forum Team was fortunate enough to take a break and, well, do a little wake surfing to cool down – as if the hangovers and jet lag of European movie premiere travel doesn’t mess with your head. After getting out of the water, the usual premiere/party antics ensued. Aaaaggghhh yeah.
