We were pretty lucky to ride the pipe today. As I mentioned the Cardies was closed to the public and The mountain was pretty much desserted. The only other people we were sharing the pipe with were: a small group of Kiwis; Byron Wells + Simon Dumont; and some North Face skiers + snowboarder [Kaitlyn Farrington] doing a photo shoot. We had to wait for a little while before getting into the pipe because The North Face crew were shooting with a heli, but it was'nt all that bad just kicking back and watching the chopper.

It was a fun day. The sun was shining, there was a good vibe and the pipe was still in pretty good knick when despite the fact that it had'nt been cut and there were some pretty cool tricks being thrown down by all.
