Warm Up Routine for a Powder Run in Steamboat- A Tip From the Ski Bums

We all have our own routines when getting ready for the Steamboat slopes and for that epic powder day in Steamboat Springs. Some of us inhale a gallon of coffee or couple Red Bulls, some do vigorous stretching, yoga and meditation, some of us start out at work waiting for our break to go ski...

My fellow rider and a co-worker Jeremy has a very unique way of getting himself ready - a headstand, when already on top of the mountain and in full ski gear!

I am not sure if this an idea he got from the Flying Federsen at the Olympic send off party couple weeks ago, but I had the priviledge to witness this routine yesterday.

See for yourself : )

It looks like the powder was "head deep"!  If you want to improve your warm up routine then get to Steamboat and also get some incredible deals on your lodging.  How do you warm up for those epic powder days?

Steamboat Native Johnny Spillane Gets the Silver Medal

It was a great weekend for Steamboat Springs, CO at the Olympics. Sunday afternoon everyone from Steamboat was glued to the TV to see what would happen in the Nordic event. Steamboat locals Johnny Spillane, Todd Lodwick and Billy Demong all put out there best efforts to finally get the USA their first Nordic Combine medal at the Olympics.

With .8 k left in the 10 k race Johnny Spillane took charge of the race and sprinted ahead of the rest of the competitors. As he took off, my friends and I started jumping with joy over the excitement that a Steamboat native may take the podium. Johnny fought them off till the very end however his sprint was just too soon and he was passed by Chappuis who won the Gold medal.  For the first time in Nordic Combine history the USA made the podium with a silver medal. Now there is reason to celebrate! Congratulations Johnny!
