as i am sure most of us have heard freestyle skiing legend Sarah Burke past away today from the head injury she sustained a week ago.
i just wanted to take a minute to honor her as a fellow skier and hope that where ever she may be now the powder is blower and the jumps are pristine.
RIP Sarah

Very sad... seems like there have been a few tragic deaths in the ski world over the last few years. Shane, CR, and now Sarah

Really hard to accept this. I'm still trying make some sense of the loss of my good friend, Kip Garre. A tribute ski is in the works.
Sarah may have left this world too soon but she made it a better place while she was here.
