Team Rider JJ Thomas hit me up all the way from New Zealand. Check out what he had to say about his trip so far!

Sheep,Beer, and Snowboarding

Just letting you all know that things down here in the south pacific are going well ..Last week I took some runs with Celtek team riders Sage and Blaze Kotsenburg and then watched them destroy the slope course at the NZ Open..They  were riding hard and standing out with style.Sage was so excited from the contest that he flew last minute to Australia with his friend Chris Willett and rumor has it they kept the momentum, and walked away with some top 5 finishes ,and also landed themselves in TTR's top 10 world rankings..Not a bad way to go into the season!

Ive been busy riding halfpipe and powder.I was even fortunate enough to get a Heli day in with Andy Finch. All in all, life is good down under.The snow is still falling and the pipe and park is still firing ..I hope you all are enjoying summer and getting ready to snowboard this winter!!
