I am planning on picking up Low boom Larry north of Ames at 12:30, we should be at Clear Lake by 1:30, if anyone else wants a ride from Des Moines I'll be leaving there around 11:30 ish from down town.
Where is a good place to launch at Clear Lake?
Please post here where you will be at and we will come join the fun.

Fun Riding on Clear Lake today. Good to see a bunch of familiar and new faces in a place you don't normally ride at very often.
Thanks for the quick lesson in jumping technique Tighe, I will be working on it hard now. Can't wait for my next session.
Hopefully everyone made it home safe, we hit some black ice on the way back to Des Moines with some cars in the ditch, hopefully it was better travelling north.
Until next time, keep it cool.

Yeah great day. So nice riding in deep snow again.
I discovered how nice kite snowboarding can be. Nothing like carving on a single board.
Great to see you guys from the lower half of Iowa. Cool rendezvous. Larry you looked great rippin it up on your snowboard. You too mr. Norman. Katie was going for it and progressed immensely today, riding toeside, boosting, carving it up...
Good riding with everyone. More soon

Tighe on board!
I had never seen Tighe on a board before! He looked smooth as always,
and Randy L. was getting his boarding dialed. Katie blew my mind: Already going toe-side & boosting. I'm still working on the comfort-level thing..I feel weird on a board & better in skis. It was good to meet Uffe (still can't pronounce it) and to see Larry (Lowboom?), Mark J & another Twin Citian, Nick , who braved the icy roads. Apparently Mr. Belden's jump tips work, I'll have to pay more attention next time!
