Backyard boarders.....

Just before we were due to head off on our Spring Break, there was a huge dumping of snow in Denver.  Jakeb and Stuart were suffering from not having snowboarded for a while.... (it had been at least 5 days for Stuart.... and 4 hours for Jakeb....since their last snowboard!), so they went outside in the snow, made some jumps and took to the backyard slopes!  Jakeb is in the blue jumper and Stu in the brown jacket.....








Here is a link to a snowboarding video Jakeb has put together of Stuart, Joshuah and Jakeb up in the mountains at Loveland, using the GoPro camera.  The "pole" you see is a mount Jakeb made to hold the camera when it isn't mounted on their helmets. See if you can spot the bloke in the blue jacket "rising up" from the powder!!  Jakeb is in the white jacket, Joshuah in the maroon and Stuart in the blue.  None of them had snowboarded 3 months ago, so a pretty impressive effort by all of them.
