Great story about the skier, Cody Townsend, a Santa Cruz native.
I didn't put it together until I read about him in our local paper.
I knew his mom from her news reporting days. I'm not surprised. Both parents are very athletic.

Apparently Jeremy Nobis Skiied it first, followed by Kent Kreitler and John Hunt long before either of these guys hit it.

Funny how they got all butt hurt over one guy getting the award for his video when the other guy had not released his video yet. Did not seem like he was claiming an FD as much as he was makeing a rad video.
