Thanks man!

Getting towards 20% of the goal. Had some news that wasn't so good potential sponsor but getting to 20% more then makes up for it!

Talked with Orage and they are going to donate 50 hoodies for the cause! Working out the details and will post them on the RallyMe page soon. $40 ok for a good hoodie? Going to lower the tee price also. I have 10 brand new Line Skis shirts.

Thanks again for everyone who has donated!

The van has been chillin at brighton for the past week. Its easier to get a hold of the industry out here in the west. The east is really neglected from any hold of the industry compared to out west. Nordica has been showing some love with their team and Ian Compton. Dumont cup also comes around in the spring and your local mountain is lucky to have one demo day a season while you ski around on a slab of ice but that's really it. Already been to two events put up by ski companies out here and the season is just getting started and I have been able to go directly to companies and directly talk to them face to face.

I feel even worse for the mid west than I do for the east.

The west doesn't need love. They have enough cool stuff. And snow.

25% towards the goal but a lot more of you who are sure to benefit should toss in a dollar or two!
