LOVING LIFE...We just had a forecast_ snowboards posse-up at the Winter Park resort. Most definitely FUN times with the crew and a few friends outside of the crew joined us for some spring sessioning. The Weatherman predicted rain, snow and clouds, they were wrong once again! Ain't that some shit?

Pat Milbery and the majority of the Forecast Snowboard Crew grew up in lovely Middle America, and will have Midwest pride until the day they die. So what better way to spend more time at home than planning an entire Midwest Tour this winter titled THE MIGHTY MIDWEST SNOWBOARD CAMP.

Boulder, Co, Dec. 9, 2007 -- INFO_ At each stop on the map there will be a camp. The camp will consist of two days of riding, interacting, and hanging out with each local community and the Forecast_ team. On the second day, in the afternoon, we will provide what we like to call a PROGRESSION SESSION. A rider's session similar to a contest style/event but less emphasis on the contest and more on THE FUN! The PROGRESSION SESSION offers the kids/adults a chance to apply the skills they just recently learned, build their confidence along with providing the kids and parents an opportunity to evaluate their progression. Sponsors are HOOKING IT UP for the TOUR, get ready for some sweet PRIZES awarded for most creative, most improved, most consistent, best style and best overall shredder
