Pros and Powder Stop # 4 - Boyne Mountain Michigan
FEBRUARY 10 / 08
Well after about a 20 hour travel day Friday, countless wrong turns and
an overly pricey rental car, we arrived safe and sound in beautiful
Boyne Michigan for stop # 4 of the Pros and Powder Tour. Although tired
and hungry, the team was ready for the fourth leg of the Tour bright and
early Saturday morning.
Now Orage came to Michigan last year for the tour as well and were so
impressed we decided to book ourselves in for year two. With helping
hands from local reps Karen and John Kerkhof and Event Manager Dan
Turcott at Boyne Mountain we were able to get the stop underway to
entertain hundreds of Boyne locals. The USSA slopestyle and pipe event
were happening at the same time so there were plenty of people to hang
with. Michelle fore ran the event while TJ held the fort down at the
booth signing posters, throwing down high fives and managing the music.
At one point there may have even been a few bad words on the stereo
causing quite the fuss with some friendly Boyne locals. Sorry about that
again.
There were familiar faces from last years stop and it felt truly as
though we*d never left. The kids out in Michigan are great and we had
an absolute blast joking around, skiing, singing autographs and cooking
hot dogs. Even some of the kids pitched in with setup, teardown and
cooking of the dogs. Thanks again guys.
Bottom line, Michigan kills it and as long as there is a Pros and
Powder Tour, we*ll be coming back. Big thanks to our partnering brands
Volkl, Marker Tecnica, SBC Skier magazine, Newschoolers.com and of
course Boyne Mountain. Join us for stop # 5 at CODA*s Canada Olympic
Park in Calgary Alberta.
Caio for now!
