Top Ten Snowboarding Mountains

Copper Mtn has Woodward now. Foam pit for everyone! I'm telling him the same thing if I see him at Copper Mtn again in December. He was running around all incognito at the beginning of last season. It wasn't hard to spot there were pro riders in the pipe. We chatted briefly but I left him alone. I was there for training too. He's a good guy. He does give back to the snowboard community though I don't think that gets talked about alot.  (Friday Nov 6 | post #9)
