Aspen was great!

Our team mate Cleve lives nerby Aspen and was so kind to let us stay with him. We came there and it started dumping so riding powder was the only thing we could do

One day it was so could (-8 F or -40c ) we went to Woodward and Silverthorne.

Woodward is an indoor place were you can jump trampolins and jump with a snowboard into foampits. Silverthorne is known for its outlets so shopping was the key.

At the end of the week the rest of the team arrived. Thanx to Anneke (Cleve’s super nice mom) Frank, Joey and Jan could stay at Dancing  Bear, a super fine hotel in the middle of Aspen (check out the link!) for two days before we all headed out to Telluride.

De drive over to Telluride was great! Super nice vieuws, old mining towns and crossing dear. Telluride looks like an old cowboy town hidden in the middle of nowhere and between beautiful mountains. We defenitly want to come back to do some powder riding on these awesome mountains.

Not only the mountains look great but the snowboardcross course looked  really sweet. The course was hard and we had a shitti training. On qualifiaing day we gave it our best but it just wasn‘t enough to make finals. Bell got in 22nd and Britt crashed on the finish line . We skipped the team event so Bad Gastein will be the next race.
