Good times in LAAX, 10th at the BEO!

All the girls stoked on Enni's win! Britte, me, Enni, Lisa and Heidi Congrats girl....
Just about to leave Laax Switzerland now after an epic week of riding in one of my favourite places, finished 10th out of 57 riders in the European Open Slopestyle event yesterday, stoked with my result. This bumped me up into TTR number 9. Today the Halfpipe finals is going off good luck to all you girls competing in that! Here are a few pictures enjoy!

Just chilling here in Laax Switzerland, I have Slopestyle semis tomorrow. I finished up 4th out of 50 riders in the qualification on Tuesday, will keep you posted on how the rest of the competition goes for me. After the BEO I am heading back to Morzine with the GB team for a few days and then home to see family :) Congrats to Jamie Nicholls for getting into the finals! Representing for the UK...

Roxy Chicken Jam 2010


First contest of the 2010 season, I went to Avoriaz France for a week with family which was really fun just cruising around and getting back into riding after my but injury! I drove with Gilly Seagrave from Morzine to Saalbach Hinterglum for 10 hours to the Roxy Chicken Jam in Austria. I am staying with all the Roxy girls, have had a great few days riding and today was the semi finals. I finished in 11th place which is my best result to date in a 6* TTR. That has put me in TTR ranking numero 12, stoked! My run consisted of a switch boardslide on the rainbow box into a backflip, into a back 3 mute, then into a nollie front flip off the up box! Shout out to Enni Rukajärvi, who is killing it and finished in 1st place! Hopefully I will have some more pictures to go up after the event! For now here is a picture of me and my girl Silje Norendal on the poma, now it is time to party, and then heading to the European Open tomorrow, ROAD TRIP!

Hello from snowy France

Hey I am currently in France on a family skiing holiday, it has been really cool to cruise around. The rest of the GB team arrived yesterday and it's dumping today here in Morzine, the snow has not been too great with small jumps so hoping they will make the park better after the snow fall. I rode some powder pipe with the team today! In a couple of days I am heading over to Austria for the Roxy Chicken Jam which should be really good fun to see the rest of the roxy girls and ride some good jumps. Will keep you posted on the journey over to Austria and how I get on in the contest.
Peace
