It was time….it was time to take a day off and go riding at a real hill. What better place to go then head to my favorite mountain in Canada, Kicking Horse (I’ve only hit Revy once and it wasn’t a pow day, so for now KH is still my favorite). The Clyde team has been spread all over, Mike Dunlop is over in Pemberton, Ryan Hall is a Canada Olympic Park regular along with Eric Lauzon, Dwayne Wiebe has been filming up in Edmonton this past week, Donn Hore is in Whistler shooting, Craig Beaulieu is training for the World Slopestyle Championships, Kael Hill is in Quebec working on a TV show, and me…I’ve just been trying to balance work and play.

On January 20th to 22nd, Calgary will be hosting Canada’s only snowboard industry tradeshow at the Roundup Centre. It is usually held in Vancouver but because of a little event called the Olympics rolling into that town around the same time they are holding it here instead.

The good news is that this is the first year that Clyde will be exhibiting (Booth #511) so if you’re a retailer and would like to check out the line for 2010/2011 give us a shout or fire us an email at info (at) clydesnowboards.com and we’ll arrange a time to meet or simply pop by the booth. The bad news is that this event is not open to the public, so retailers only please.

Happy New Year everyone! If you haven’t checked it out already, Snowboard Canada has overhauled their website for 2010 and I must say it’s pretty damn nice. Go check it out!
