AN UPDATE FROM OUR AUSTRIAN FACTORY RIDER MANI EDER
Friday, February 5th, 2010My life is boring, wake up, put my boots on grab my Ones and go up the mountain come back down eat and help my flatmates get rid of all the beer they buy (damn english housemates
).
I have been doing a few small comps, last weekend was the sick trick tour in Waidring ,this was the jib comp half of the series. It was a night jib comp fun setup rails and boxes a high standard which pushed me a bit…enough to win it !!! that gives me straigt entrance to the final of the sicktrick tou slopestyle next week..fingers crossed for that one!
This weekend in Mayrhofen was the freeski open …I missed out on a place in it so I am going to a different comp in Sunsite park in eastern tirol which I was invited to because I won it last year.
The snow conditions here are getting bad as today was more like spring than winter but the the clouds are coming and we hope to get some snow soon !! we hope !!
I am loving the skis and they have been good all round so far…I cant wait for some pure rockered park jib skis that you guys are talking about for the future so in the mean time I be careful with my ones. promise!! ![]()
So thats about it from Austria for now but i will let you know how these comps go next week.
ps: I went snowboarding with Katie today and it was siiiiiiiick!
Hope u and family are all well and dealing with the stinky nappies.
THANKS MANI. KEEP IT UP BUD, SEE YOU IN NZ.
