Just a quick post; had a fantastic time visiting the Coast Gravity Park in Sechelt, British Columbia this past weekend. Video and Picture are from a portion of the trail “Flight Deck,” which truly lives up to its name. Full of lofty mandatory jumps and a fun berm at the bottom, it’s a great way to finish a lap from “Coastal Cruise,” the more technical but still flowy upper pro line that feeds directly into the fast, floaty line of doubles that make up Flight Deck. Spent the evening celebrating my good friend Michael’s recent birthday around the campfire in Porpoise Bay Provincial park. Whiskey and a rowdy day on bikes made for a wonderful weekend.

In 2006, everything changed. It all changed for the positive but I never thought this 180-Safety grab would be the last time I ever hit a jump and land successful on my skis. The morning after this shot, I over shot a step-up jump at Mammoth Mountain, going 130ft on 100ft jump. The resultant impact burst-fractured my T12 vertebrae into my spine, causing incomplete paralysis of my lower extremities.

This accident fueled the start of High Fives Foundation. I encourage everyone to check out the Foundation and the program services we offer: www.highfivesfoundation.org
