Watch the 4BI9 crew in their 2008-2009 season, as they travel around the globe in an attempt to document this year’s most creative and progressive freeride skiing. Whether its Collin Collins and Witt Foster shredding neck deep powder, ARC riders Tom Wallisch and Steve Stepp absolutely destroying the park skiing scene, or Henrik Harlaut closing [...][IMG]http://media.nscdn.com/uploads/member/journal_entries/2899-extcpy/0sofar.jpg[/IMG]

Whats up everybody, It's been a while since I've written an update, so I'll fill you in on what's been going on in my life for the last month or so. As some of you may know, I broke my collarbone in early March in Japan. After nursing it for 5 weeks the doc said I should be good to start shredding again which was perfect timing because I would have a week to get used to skiing again for WSI. So I drove to Whistler a week early and was giddy with excitement to get back out there. My first run through the park I just straight aired all the jumps then went over to check out the halfpipe. It looked kinda gnarly because of some recent snowfall but I thought I might as well just slip through it and maybe do a couple 2 foot airs. On my last hit in the pipe I clipped the coping and put my knees into my chest...and heard a crack. I immediately knew what that sound was and could feel bunch warm blood rush to my freshly re-cracked collarbone. After getting some X-rays and talking to the doctor, I made the call to wait at least 8 weeks this time before I go skiing. So its been 5 weeks since the re-crack and I am going crazy. Spring is my favorite time of the year to shred and I can't do anything but watch edits on internet of people killing park shoots...oh well, I guess this is just making me hungrier and more determined to git'er done when I'm back. I'll be back for MOMENTUM summer camps on the whistler glacier starting in mid June. Shout outs to my girlfriend Roz and my friends back home for keeping me sane during the last 5 weeks of down time...Later.

Kye Petersen wins Red Bull Cold Rush while JP Auclair takes second and Sage Cattabriga-Alosa scores third.
The Red Bull Cold Rush was a super sick event for showing people what it's all about when it comes to freestyle and freeride in the backcountry. I just won it, and I'm super stoked. I couldn't be happier.
gonna be a little interview soon on NS [IMG]http://media.nscdn.com/uploads/member/pictures/1235498908IMG_6238.JPG[/IMG]
