so the girls and i are our here in aspen, colorado for winter x 11...pretty exciting. for some veterns like tara it's the usual x games but for myself it's my first one and i'm acting like a total 12 year old, not to mention a total tourist...yes i do own a fanny pack and yes i do say sorry pronouced with an 'o' and washroom...what's it to you? anyways, the course looks pretty good, kinda hard to get speed, a lot of tucking is going on, but besides that it's good times. this morning is qualifiers so wish us all luck please. also wish priscilla levac and mary sallah a swift recovery as pris fractured her ankle and mary possibly blew out her knee.
in other news, the women's halfpipe finals were last night and i bet you all wish you had of been here. the girls were killing it and pushing things to the next level, which meant a lot of girls went down in their first runs. for most they got it together for their second. elena hight pulled a sick bs 900 indy to back to a front 5 melon and then finishing things off with a huge fs 720 JAPAN! sooo sick, go little e! gretchen beiler's first run landed her in first place with a huge fs 900, crippler seven and back to back 5's. however it was torah bright's 2nd run that earned her x games gold! torah pulled out a huge air to fakie tail grab first hit into a cab 720, then a giant mctwist into a backside 3 and a switch backside 5 at the end of her run! the aussi's were going crazy! good work torah! you killed it and we're all so stoked for you! hannah teter landed in fourth spot, just missing the podium with emanula pesko in the fifth spot. good work to all the ladies and best of luck to all the girls who compete in slope today...go kill it!
