Nick grinds in a snowstorm

OK, video was limited all the way around and downloading is too time consuming to get them all in before the trip ends. Keep watching the blog and I'll try to get other snips in this weekend. In his particular scene, Nick finally got me over to the jump & grind area to watch his latest tricks. The only fly in the ointment was the current snowstorm, which provided a nice 40 knot head wind. That makes it a little tough for a mini man to get enough speed for flying, or even moving forward. He attempts two grinds here and pulls the first one off, but in the second the only grinding to be had was grinding to a halt. Please bear with me on the gap in between: I couldn't shut the camera off while moved on to the next jump but had to protect the camera from wind & snow. Just for the record, proud ski daddy thought he was totally awesome.
