Riley Poor – Transitions

On December 4th I was lucky enough to attend a special premiere of Riley Poor’s latest creation … Transitions down at Craig Hospital.

I was truly blown away by this film not only because it goes back to the era of skiing I thrived and grew up in … which brings amazing memories. But also because it is such a beautiful documentary about one of the greatest pipe throbs of all time, Simon Dumont.

Now – I just can’t wait for Riley’s next project and to possibly get deeper into the real meaning behind Transitions. After all, out of everyone I know (minus my dad) there isn’t anyone who has taken a larger transition in their lives in this past year other then Riley Poor. I still wear his sticker on the back of my phone and think daily about what a true inspiration he is has become … from day one.

Tyler’s 8 Day Bender – Day #2

IMG_2058Day number two of the 8 day bender … Tyler finds himself in no other then his hometown of Boulder, CO.

I couldn’t get a hefty response out of him which could be directly related to the outcome of the CU vs CSU football game.

But talking to him briefly on the phone – I can easily tell day 3 is going to hurt.

Good luck sir.

Tyler’s 8 Day Bender – Day #1

cocktails and chlorine... like mimosas and models!

Tyler insists this is the beginning of an 8 day bender. I ask…

“Why 8 days?”

He tells me his travel and drinking plans over the next 8 days, which included the CU CSU game, Vegas, Golf, Private Jetting to Vail and a Wedding.

At this surprising point, I don’t have much to say… because a good bender should always include all of these items. So I ask…

Will you document this?

To which Tyler replies a definitive… hydle – yes.  And so the 8 day bender was born. Good luck Tyler Bowron.

Day #1 – Ally’s Drunken Pool Party
