Holy Shit, midwest gets mad props, I just spent the weekend at Boyne for the spring comp.
John Serilak(spelling?), was doing huge cork 900s in the halfpipe like 10 feet out as well as switch misty 900's like a motherfucker, Pete Proos takes a beating harder than anyone but also pull out the sickest shit on rails you could imagine, Halfpipe props also go to Stephan turkula and scott kovton. Everybody gets mad props as well, just too many names to even mention. The tricks that i saw this weekend opened my eyes to the midwest again. I've been in mammoth for 3 years and the midwest definatly keeps up with progression with the rest of the country. if not ahead. peace, matt

We have nothing else to do ibut/i park ski, and we have a lot of heart, so yeah a lot of midwesterners rip, even with shitty ass jumps and concrete landings. Thanks for the props tho.

I think that some of the best skiers come from the midwest.

we dont have the best jumps and my local park didn't even have a rail. But we do what we can. We go out, film, push ourselves and have fun, just like anywhere else in the US

The Midwest is where its at man. We don't have big mountains so we ski the park and street, and we have balls and can take a beating better than anyone. The midwest kicks ass!
I put the fun in dysfunctional

word dirty, the event was sick. I wasn't all about the way big air was judged (wes should have won I thought) but not going to bitch about that any more. Sick weekend, thanks for everyone coming out for it. Next year will go off, the footage from the weekend is super epic for sure. Later all (look for jon cyrulik, proos, stefan, and scott in espionage).
