Seems like some DirtClowns have shown up on the shore. Well, they actually showed up in Whistler, and due to crap amounts of traffic I was late getting there so we had a bit of a late start. Good thing the sun doesn’t go down until 9PM these days….

Traditional first lap of Seymour to intro the boyos to the Shore. Flail around on CBC, then head down to Neds.

The old Shore is showing her age, and the large amounts of water that have been falling from the sky this “summer.”

Still, no better way to experience the goods than when wet.

Or as we like to say in Canada, “slippery.”

Gives you plenty of time to reflect on where your skills are at.

For a bunch of desert dwellers, these Aussie boys caught on pretty quick.

Usually when you get folks from the dry climates they struggle mightily with the tch aspect of slick wood and root riding, but in this case, we got the rare few that just accepted the conditions as being different from what they were used to and got down to the business at hand — shreddin the gnar.

Ooops….

I guess he got distracted by that ginourmous tree.

A little steep plankage session while we fixed a flat.

Yeah, just practicing for my future career as photo editor for Mountain Bike Action. Maybe I should tilt the camera a bit more….

I figured they knew how to jump.

Yup, they know how to jump.

A little side note about this new work on Neds. Thanks for the nice building, but why even pretend that that sand pile is a tranny? I mean, if you’re gonna make a flat landing, make it FLAT. That thing is NOT a tranny.

Meh, my 2 cents. Alright, back for another lap.

We hammered CBC pretty fast, only stopping for a quick pic at the Millenium Log.

Then it was down to Salvation and the Zipper Totter.

Oh, and some wooden berm action.

Excellent first day on the Shore. Tomorrow, Fromme (muhahahahahahahahah!)….
