I just returned from a week up in Alaska and was blown away with size of the mountains and the amount of terrain you could never possibly ride in one lifetime. Click on the link to see Best snowkite team rider, Jake Buzianis throwing a hundred foot air 30 miles from the next closest town.

crazy... it'd be interesting to hear what the snowkite scene near Anchorage is like. I lived there for a short bit and still have friends and family there.

I showed one of them the Something Stronger vid and he was stoked to try it...

We rode with Jake and his buddies for a few days last summer and gave them a tour of all the best riding spots in the gorge. Jake's a super nice guy and more than willing to offer great advice if he sees you working on a new move. The whole Utah crew are some of the nicest guys and we look forward to riding with them again this summer.
