Adventures in Japan! Pictures from Sapporo

2012/01/22

Lots of impressions, I have fun taking them!

Great day trip in Frankfurt. So lucky to see so much culture in my free time :)

2012/01/17

We arrived at Frankfurt airport 7 hours before our flight so we decided to catch a cab into the “airport city” to do some exploring. We had a fun afternoon in the city with a great Germany lunch and lots of sightseeing

Cheers,

We drove 10 hours east out of the Black Forrest in Bavaria to the apex of Austria, Slovenia & Italy. Conditions are perfect on the K90 in Villach. Should be some great training over the next few days!

2012 is almost here – Here are my plans, what are yours?

2011/12/30 — 1 Comment

Can you believe 2011 is almost over?

Assuming that this whole thing isn’t going to end as it was predicted, it should be another new & exciting year. Indulging in some champagne and watching the clock tick down might be how most of Canada is welcoming in another trip around the sun. Not I though because I will be dreaming about a great start too my 2012 competition season.

In the first 12 hours of 2012 I will have finished my first competition, and it just keeps building from there. Leaving to Europe 72 hours later to compete in Continental Cup, then roughly 2 weeks later to Japan to compete in my first World Cup! Not exactly kicking it easy with family and friends.. Thats the first 30 days. 

Beside the celebrations of welcoming in a new calendar year its time to maybe take a look at making a new years resolution. The annual way to show everyone else our good intentions. Unfortunately resolutions tend to fade fast, and before you know it here comes 2013…. 

Regardless of how you are ringing in the new year, I hope you take a moment to look back at all the good and bad moments of 2011, then let them go.  Make sure you head full steam into 2012 with energy to do your best!

Happy New Year!

Eric

First Day of K90 Jumping in Calgary! Lots of fun!

2011/12/29

While the 4 Hills tournament is just getting started in Oberstdorf Germany, I am taking my first jumps on the Normal Hill here in Calgary. Its such a fun ”high flying” ski jump, even though its a little older. Our home club is hosting the NORAM Jr. Championships here over new years and it will be my first competition of this season.  It should be a good event, and I am planning to get things off with a bang. 
 
Wish me Luck!
 

 

Merry Merry Christmas Everyone!
