    Vid of my 4 year olds season

    I went through the pics and vid of my season with my son and edited them down to this vid. I did this for me but thought some others might enjoy seeing them so I really don't care to hear any advice about how to make him a better skier because I don't care, we're just in it for fun.

    That rocked! Thanks for sharing. Owen is one cool dude.

    My 2.5 year old just watched it with me. He enjoyed it too. Look mommy, he turns. He goes fast! Rock on kiddos.

    Great stuff. The best of days for sure. I started my guys about the same age, and they're now 18 and 20 and can really rock, so, in no time, Owen will be all gnar, and you'll be all proud (and probably like me, buying him the gear you always wanted)..

    One thing I did was take a picture of them in the same unique place every year, and until about 3 years ago, I have every year from about 1994 - great fun to look back on. So big so fast.......

    When I moved a couple of years ago I got rid of a lot of stuff, but my little guy's "silver bullet" jacket I just couldn't part with.

    That's awesome parenting right there!

    I like the roof jumping video. I would have to wait until the wife was out of town prior to any of those shenanigans.

    You're clearly not teaching him right.

    Really enjoyed that! Took my 4 and 3 year old for the first time last season and can't wait till next time. Never thought I would have so much fun riding the same lift and doing the same little green run all day!

    There is something about that first lift ride with your kid(s). Magic carpet /bunny hill and those first runs are cool but that first lift ride is like a right of passage.

    Awesome!

    Last year I wouldn't have clicked on this thread, but with a 5 day old boy in the house, I'm all about it now.

    Great stoke, post more next season.

    Thanks for the stoke. It so fun getting to hang with the little one when you're both doing something you love.
    Keep your tips up and always remember to unhook your pack from the chair...
