Good morning everyone! It's Sunday, the last day of Winter X. It's funny because usually by the end of Summer X I'm so worn out and ready for it to be over. I don't want this trip to end!
Simon Dumont has to be one of the hardest working athletes of the X-Games. He's already headed over to practice.
Last night, he blew everyone's mind in the Ski Big Air final with a double laid out front flip. Front flips are so much more difficult than back flips because you're blind until right before you're about to land. There was a commentator that felt the need to talk trash about his trick. As far as I'm concerned he can PISS OFF!! Action Sports does not need negativity. There is enough of that in life in general. Grow up you idiot! Good Luck today, Simon! Also, Congratulations to the Silver Medalist Jon Olsson and Bronze Medalist Jacob Wester, for there Ski Big Air performance. (Check out Ski Big Air runs by Olsson and Simon below.)
After we got back from the Pennywise concert, the party at the Target Chalet was starting to mutate. It started off a bit slow, but once it got going it was off the hook. Target has a jam room set up so of course I had to head in to drop a few lyrics with Shaun White on guitar, Mat Hoffman and a few others. We did Georgia Satellites "Keep Your Hands To Yourself" After I was done feeling out my music career, we got a few games of pool in. Let's just say I'll stick to riding bikes. Trevor Laws from the Philadelphia Eagles was whaling away on Guitar Hero. He's GOOD!
After my pool sharking, we headed up stairs to express myself through the art of dance. Don't be fooled, I have to BIG Left feet! The energy was pretty good until Fletcher (the guitarist for Pennywise) and dragged myself and Dr. Chao out on the dance floor. When a 6'6" wild punk rock guitarist gets on a dance floor, you better be ready! No body was seriously injured so all was a great success!!
Now I'm just finishing up breakfast and headed to the slopes. I'll check back in with you later to fill you in on my adventures of the day. Peace out! K-Rob
