Yvan goes snowboarding

Ok today I`am at Cypress mountain 20 mins outside of downtown Vancouver. The forecast is amazing 60cm of new snow! let`s ride!




















My crew from left top right: Labrosse, Frenchie,Danny cool, and our guide Rob...it`s gonna be a good day!

....Beaucoup de plaisir....

My first jump !...

...Followed immediately by my first crash!

At 4.5 meters of snow on the ground and still growing, Cypress is the official site for the upcoming Vancouver winter Olympics of 2010. As far as me, my cruising speed as room for improvement. I think I lost the other guys...

I am still learning new tricks but first how to handle the deep powder snow? Keep your weight to the back foot...easier said then done.











Up here is the view is amazing. Behind me, the Georgia Strait. It looks like I am on the moon.



















This is what snowboarding is all about. Lots of laughs and a big breath of fresh air.




































It`s time to get back home. I had a blast and will be back real soon.

A bientôt les amis!...
