Back to School

October 18, 2006 @ 7:50 AM -

Dear fellas and bellas. What´s up? We are back in Berchtesgaden right now, back in boarding school. So much stress I can´t believe, it's super hard right now. We missed out some days in the last weeks so we have had to learn a lot on our own and that's what makes it so hard. But maybe it´s not that hard it´s just school. We spent our weekend in Hintertux at a friend´s house and it was amazing. This friend is called Werni Stock and he is a super good rider, we had so much fun: no training, no shooting, no stress, just ridin with friends on friday. Awesome. . We stayed in Hintertux for just one day (Saturday) we drove to Kaunertal for the opening there. The bad thing was this place had too little snow so they couldn´t do the planned slopestyle comp and changed to a rail session on a flatdown box instead. Maybe it was not like Hintertux but we still had a good session. We met a lot of friends, drove quadbikes and jumped lots on the local trampolines there. On Sunday we rode in Hintertux with a lot of friends again, good weekend for sure. Now I have to go to school for some more days but on Thursday we're on the road again. We fly to Hamburg with Oakley for a skihall opening, we will take part in a Redbull show there with our friend Marco Smolla. It´s gonna be fun for sure, I don´t like skihalls that much, they're mostly really cold but I have never been to Hamburg so I'm pretty excited about that. Visting the kiez... haha, we will see. Take care. fips
