I’ve been taking a few months extra off this summer to enjoy time with our kids ( 5yo Lucia and 8mo Laiken )… and to have some fun in the PNW!
I’m finally taking on some of the bigger jumps at the bike park in PDX. It fascinates me dissecting the dynamics, for example, leaning forward at the lip of of the jump is helping to extend the range while leaning back into the face of the jump and pressing with the legs provides more pop. I’m still working the whip!
Got to climb Mt. Adams 12,200’ again with my pilot friend. Nice time of year to camp on the way up too. I’m hoping I get the time to try Mt. Rainier later this summer!
My DIY E-Foil is working great! I took it out on Hagg lake after doing my first sprint Triathlon. The disbelieving expression of "I’m seeing a space-ship” on the faces of other boaters is honestly kind of satisfying [ Project Write-up is here! ]
