"\"&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;by Mike Rogge&lt;\\/em&gt;&lt;\\/p&gt;\\n&lt;p&gt;Winter is the craziest time of the year and my first winter at Powder has been no exception. After eight straight days of getting my butt kicked from the ski brands at Powder Week, I was ready for a break. The plane en route for a Salomon Jib Academy stop at Whaleback in the Live Free or Die State of New Hampshire (&lt;a href=\\\"http:\\/\\/www.youtube.com\\/watch?v=bX7nQrCgALM\\\"&gt;if you don&amp;#8217;t want to wear a helmet, there&amp;#8217;s nothing they can dooooo!&lt;\\/a&gt;) seemed like a quick relief from the GnarCarnival in Jackson.&lt;br \\/&gt;\\n&lt;figure id=\\\"attachment_32103\\\" style=\\\"width: 640px\\\" class=\\\"wp-caption aligncenter\\\"&gt;&lt;a class=\\\"lightbox\\\"  title =\\\"Couch\\\" href=\\\"http:\\/\\/www.powdermag.com\\/?attachment_id=32103\\\"&gt;&lt;img src=\\\"http:\\/\\/www.powdermag.com\\/files\\/2011\\/03\\/Couch-970x645.jpg\\\" alt=\\\"New Hampshire.

The East Coast kids showed up with big smiles and even bigger bags of crazy tricks (tip roll 450 on to pretz 270 off for those playing at home plus smooth and stomped rodeo 5&amp;#8217;s by a 16-year-old girl you&amp;#8217;ve never heard of but will probably win X Games next year). With a little rain not slowing down the littlest of right-coasters in slow, sloppy, and slushy conditions, the kids playfully battled it out for a chance to head to Mammoth in the spring to ski with the Salomon team. In the end, it was Tyler Duncan and Jackie Kling taking home the plane ticket to the Jib Academy Finals at Mammoth Mountain in May. Without a doubt, it&amp;#8217;ll be a crazy time in the sunshine.
