Out of all the places in Denver to take our appetite for adventure, the Denver Skatepark was one that could not be missed. So, out came the GoPro HD and some wide angle, 720p, skate-A-rific video capturing began.

Enjoy it here! Or in the TTN Vids section to the right.

<![CDATA[In the Park with Twin Tip Nation]]> http://twintipnation.com/news/in-the-park-with-twin-tip-nation/ On August 9th we headed down to one of Rio Rancho, New Mexico's skate parks played some toonage, shown some light and had a really fun time.

Many of the locals showed up Matt, Elias, Sammy, Apollo, James, Dilan, Brenden and many many many others. Thank you all for making it a positive fun event. You all made the event what it was. Also, thanks goes out to the City of Rio Rancho for supplying the land, the ramps, banks, spines, boxes . . . for all of us to enjoy.

Keep up the good work!

I do apologize for how long it took to get this video online. We had some major technical difficulties as this was the first time we had used 1080p high def footage. But, hey its finally here.

<![CDATA[TTN's No Drama Day at Angel Fire Resort]]> http://twintipnation.com/news/ttns-no-drama-day-at-angel-fire-resort/ TTN's No Drama Day at Angel Fire Resort started early in the morning Saturday January 31st this year of 2009. We planted the TTN Tent at the base of the Chile Express lift, where it bloomed into a tune playing hangout that kept all those waiting for a lift to the top entertained. Team TTN spread across Angel Fire Resort's mountain like a flock of crows looking for Farmer John's choicest crop of all mountain fun. Some team members focused their attention to Liberation Terrain Park and sampled many of the tasty features it offered: Five kickers, two of which where rather large, three rails, one fat box, one propane tank - yeah thats right a propane tank, one bus, a table top with wall ride and hip and one dedicated lift that serviced it all like a huge plate at a Vegas Buffet.

Saturday rocked. See the pics here!

Sunday, started out a bit cooler - temp wise, and it seemed to pattern just like Saturday. But out of the blue, clouds started moving in and before you could do a cork 7 it was gray and gloomy. That didn't stop Team TTN. They hit up Angel Fire Resort's mountain harder than ever. Like bark beetles on a Pinon they sucked up all the features of the terrain park and sessioned their little hearts out and made us a little video. Yeah, thats coming soon too!

However, the day ended short when one of our riders took a nasty spill, tweaking her back so hard that she had to take a little flashy ride to the nearest ER, which was 30 minutes away. Thanks goes to John for tagging along to keep her company and to get your broken finger fixed. Thankfully the prognoses was a positive one for both  of them and we were able to take her home where she was greeted by her family and taken well care of.

Our prayers go out to you, Lauren, for a speedy recovery. (I know, I know, I butchered your name - sorry)

Aside from a broken finger, a nearly horrendous back injury, tweaked knees, bloodied pants, bruised shoulders and dry throats all around, the TTN No Drama Day at Angel Fire Resort went really well.

Thanks again to the great hospitality of Angel Fire Resort and staff including Andy, Christy, Burt and all the rest who helped out.

Oh yeah, thanks to Alex's Mom for handling all the TTN gear. You rock too!
