Morgan Hill Snowflex Center gets Yet Another Sponsor!

This time, it's from a bigger company with some serious props: Sessions. I've seen their factory driving by to Scotts Valley (chill little town by the way) and I love their protective gear (when I actually wear any). It's super duper great that companies are taking an interest in our quaint little snowflex center. No doubt if this miracle pays off, it's gonna be huge and it's gonna be popular.

Next week they'll be spreading the love and enjoying some air time on the news as well as on the radio. Tune in and check them out, I'm not sure what stations, but when I find out, I'll either post the stations and times here, or just get the videos. This is getting to be really exciting and is turning out to be quite promising. Hold well, and we could all be enjoying some June riding.

New updates will be added to their website shortly. Check them out here: Morgan Hill Snowflex

Morgan Hill Snowflex gets sponsored???

By a watch company??? Well, this increases the chance of the morgan hill (please don't say mo'hill, mohill, mohilla, mohumpalot or whatever the hell people from out of town use to abbreviate the name) snowflex center becoming a reality instead of a dream machine.

The more sponsors, the more people involved, the more the costs is divided up, the cheaper it'll be for the construction company (I think it's called Leading Edge Slope Developement) and the faster and more efficently the place will be built. I'm really looking forward to this and super excited that something like this is coming to my hometown.

Morgan Hill Snowflex Center

Oh my jumpin' jolly god I can't believe it. A snowflex center, the first of it's kind in California, in my own hometown! On top of that, it's like... 5 miles from my house, maybe even less. Boy, sometimes life is great.

Basically, it's an artificial ski-slope stretching around 600-700 feet in length make of the stuff of wonder: Snowflex. This is great stuff (not revolutionary, like real snow is) that will enable us to snowboard or ski all year round. It's an artificial turf like substance that rolls out like carpet and rides like groomers. Never melting, never freezing, but.. never interesting.

Don't get me wrong, I am stoked TO THE MAX (lolface) about this center. I'll get to ride every day after school and weekends for sure. But it makes me ponder if we're becoming too artificial here. The best part of this center is knowing that there's real snow waiting for you somewhere in the mountains. Remember folks, no helping the environment = no more snow.

While it'll never beat powder, it might just beat shredding paper - as in, global warming and what-not. So recycle a little, play a little, and enjoy mother nature the very chance you get to, or you'll never get that time back.
