October Update

Well hello there!
The winter is shaping up perfectly. I'm excited to say that I've gotten hooked up with a small company out of Breckenridge, CO called Rocky Mountain Underground (RMU) skis. The skis are pressed in Denver so I'm psyched to support a company thinking locally! Also, my roommate and I are finalizing details to become ambassadors for SkiingTheBackcountry.com. It's a neat website where you can track your vert totals for the season and find backcountry skiing routes in your area, or areas that you might travel to. It's shaping up to be a sweet place to meet people and share information!
I'm also beginning to work on getting the youth program here in Durango more established and hopefully get higher numbers of young people involved in this sport.
The Guyot
Here is the RMU Guyot. Their backcountry oriented camber-rocker ski (early rise tip/tail, camber underfoot). Super solid ski with a 120 mm waist and comes in 186 or 200 cm models.

I think that's about it! I hope everything is going well for y'all and I'll see you on the slopes hopefully sooner rather than later!
Hasta pronto,
Luke
