Shay Update: SIA 2010

The moment has finally arrived and I’ll be making my way down to the SIA Snow Show in Denver, Colorado.  Even though it begins tomorrow at 9am, I’m happy to head down early today to check into my hotel room and get the fun started the right way.  What you’ll see is 6 whirlwind days by 1 person and an incredible experience that I’ll be capturing through this blog.

This will be my second time as a media member for shayboarder.com and I’ll be updating the blog as I can and tweeting out during the show so make sure you follow me on twitter.com/shayboarder for the latest updates from SIA.

After the tradeshow, I’ll immediately head into the mountains for the on-snow portion before coming home.  Soon after you’ll start to see the 10-11 reviews make their way to the site.

Boardistan captured this shot of me last year caught in the moment on the phone, taking photos and laughing about it.  I can’t wait to catch up with Boardistan again at the show!
