sarah burke



me and my new friend placed this sarah burke flag in the pipe before it was destroyed.  she should of been able to ride here but she fell in park city's halfpipe early this year and died 10 days later.   i had a tribute for her before it opened.   me and my friend  ( who was friends with sarah also)had a quiet moment in the pipe with this flag. it was surreal not sure if it was being in the middle of a pipe with 3 foot of fresh snow  that i had to walk up in with an amazing person i just met  or being there doing something special.   whatever it was the world went quiet for a moment  honestly. it was snowing so hard an inch in ten min. there was music at the bottom snow mobiles driving around (800 2 strokes) and a snow cat that drove passed us. i didnt even notice one thing. i can say in that moment the world went quiet and i was able to share it with someone it has been awhile since i  felt that... i wonder if my friend felt the same way, but some things are better left unsaid.
