Bluebird and freshies - what’s the schedule? What happen’s? What gear? Get up at 5-6 am at the latest. Gear up (Outerwear, backcountry equipment ) and go fuel up the sled and buy snacks & water and coffee from the gas station. Drive up to the bottom of the mountain to meet up with everyone. Unload the sled and rip up the logging roads with the crew. Once on top, pick a zone or a line, pack down a take off, or build a kicker. Film the first session and have lunch with everyone around noon. Go scope for another zone/feature and if there is enough light left, film one more feature. Loop back to the parking lot as the sun sets and load the sled on the truck. Drive back to the house, take a shower, check facebook, eat some dinner and fall a sleep with a movie playing on the laptop around 9-10 pm.

Urban trip: Get up around 9. Get breakfast. Drive to a spot you decided on the night before. Clean up the spot & build a kicker and in/out - run if needed. If at night set up lights and generator. The filmers & photogs get set up. Do a few warm-up tricks if possible. Start filming and either get the trick or kicked out or broken off. Put all the stuff back in the van and clean up the spot. Go have a beer in the local restaurant and eat some food. Go back to hotel/home and do whatever you feel like.

Park Day: Get up at noon. Go ride the park with your bros. Hopefully come back alive and go out to a wicked party with the same dudes.

Vacation Day: Get up around 10. Cuddle with the old lady for another hour. Get some coffee.
Walk down to the beach and go surf as your girl enjoys the sun. Get some fresh sushi for lunch and go cruise around town as your better half goes to every store possible. Exhausted from walking in the heat, grab a mojito from the nearest bar. Get a lil buzz and get back to the hotel…………..have a lil nap, and head out for dinner. Maybe go to a nightclub if you feel like it.

If you weren’t a pro snowboarder, what would your work day be? …working on my own company.
