Headed to Jindy for my first trip of the season to compete in rails for the Thredbo Freeride Series. Was a fun comp and so good to catch up with all my snow family again! Taking away $100 for 3rd place, Jess Rich coming in 2nd and Wiki Jones 1st place, both killing it on the rails!

Junior World Championships

Jr Worlds was a lot of fun!!! 
All 3 aussie's representing and making it to the finals. I qualified 4th in my heat, but unfortunately crashing my runs in finals and finishing 11th.
It was a fun trip and now i'm back to Mammoth to finish up my season with some spring riding :)

Ciao Bella!!

Arrived safely (only just) to our hotel in Chiesa Valmalenco after making our way through the crazy roads and crazy drivers for some shopping in Milan. 
Was a funny trip trying to get there with the GPS hardly working and the streets seemed like they should have only been one way and then having no street signs didn't really help either, but we managed to get there in the end.
 Did mostly window shopping at all the designer shops, but it was a cool little spot with a great atmosphere and a lot of people.

We had the opening ceremony for the Jnr Worlds yesterday. It was awesome, felt like I was in the olympics or something. Everyone from around the world walked through the streets together with a band up the front and people would be standing out the front of their houses watching.

goodbye Breckenridge......hello Italy

Today is March 25th, exactly a year since I broke my back and I would say I have come along way since then, I still have to do some pain management but I am back at Denver airport yet again, on my way to compete at the Jr Worlds for slope style in Italy.

So thanks so much again to my surgeon Dr Sekhon, Nevada Neurosurgery and everyone who helped me out at the hospital, couldn't have done it without you! :)

Central Park

I had a nice few days off from snowboarding in Connecticut. I spent a day in Central Park, and Central Park Zoo with Biba and now I am back to what feels like my second home in Breckenridge for a few days training.
