Winter X Games 14 in Aspen has come and gone and guess what…
I was there!!!

After my experience of working with X Games this past summer announcing Rally Car Racing I was contacted to announce for all snowmobiling disciplines which includes Freestyle, Best Trick, SnoCross, SnoCross Adaptive and Knockout…

What an experience, from the professionalism to the friendships I made, just being at the entire Winter X Games was an experience I’ll never forget and hopefully it’s not my last
Thanks to everybody involved and to those that helped me get me where I am today and helping me build for the future… I’m more open, honest and sincere with all my friends, family and confidants that have helped me, THANK YOU!

I arrive to my condo for the weekend and was stoked, who knew I would stay at a sweet spot like this!

I had a roommate for the week, a new found friend, Luke Van Valin, solid dude and great announcer for skiing…
