Shredding with Team Billy on Opening Day at Silver Star!

Rolled out of bed to cloudy skies, but no rain-SWEET! Gear up and get out there-it's opening day! Lots of folks had the same idea-hitting lift access trails in the Interior is on for the season, so let's get our skid on!

I ran into a bunch of folks from all over right of the bat and ended up finding my way into the mix with the fine folks from Team Billy. Ted Dude aka Huge, 90's Drew, Bennet-tech, Penny, Pink Helmet and Blue Helmet were flying the pirate flag and pinning trails. Time to follow in suit.Resorts seem to bring folks from all over, all looking to get in the most vertical they can-just like skiing. It is also where you get to see a lot of old friends that you make over the years, its like a mini reunion of the slaves to gravity each time I'm out. Time to ride with good friends.

Since I said I'd show you pics of the third new feature/section on Double Dog, here ya go:




The third new section on Double Dog has 3 sections to it-Wall ride to bridge with a little kicker off, Second ladder to down ramp and then a big old quarter pipe. The quarter seems super out of place, but it'll get used through out the season I'm sure.

Time to ride the rest of the hill as much as we can over the next 2 days! Team Billy came all the way from Calgary and Revelstoke for the one day, so I am stoked to still be here tomorrow taking in the good times. Good riding with ya'll:


Sorry for the lack of pics, but really it was opening day and the novelty of carrying a camera wore off after like 3 runs. Its like the saying for powder days "no friends on a powder day!". Well fresh trails means that I couldn't share it all with ya'll. I guess you'll have to strap on the helmet and drag yourselves up to SilverStar to see for yourself.

Happy Trails,
