training for euro cup

[winterparkrider]

Hey guys and gals. Sorry I hav'nt been around much the last couple of weeks. My roomate took the house desktop into his room. So I had to put together one of my own. I wanted to know what some of my fellow skiboarders are doing to train for these events. I was def lacking in the park until the last couple of weeks . Adam and I have been riding a variety of size in the jumps. The first section in the park has some 18-20ft that I have been throwing bios and switch misties in there to get my rotations back . I have stuck them plus 7s and almost got the 9 clean.section 3 is a series of 3 kickers that progressivly get bigger.section 4 is 2 monster kickers. 45 and 60 respectivly. you have t absolutly charge these 2 jumps and its a little scary to hear your pants flapping while charging a 12 ft ramp. But, I feel real good for the time I have had to train. I have laso been riding fakie like a mad man. the condors are so stable they def let me take speed to a whole new level for myself. I cant tell you folks how excited to have this oppertunity I am. I never would have imagined a second chance to show the world how good I really can be. And with the fakie downhill and the skiboarder-x on the first day look for intense battling out of me. I really want to do well in those 2 events . Best of luck to all my team mates and all the other riders from around the world. I will see you folks n a couple of weeks.

Yeah, if I had the money/time to make it to the competitions, skiboarder-x and downhill would be my two chances at anything. I can't do anything worth speaking of in the park, but I have definitely pushed my EMP's as far as they will go speed-wise. It starts to be a really odd feeling when the wind resistance starts to push back as hard as gravity. You get a pretty weird pressure over your entire body.

BTW, I'm assuming the tuner card made it to you Brett? If so, how's it working out?
