Hey everyone,

Greetings from Sochi, Russia where I’m currently on assignment for the ski website Newschoolers.com to cover the freeskiing events, halfpipe and slopestyle, that are debuting at the XXII Olympic Winter Games.

Needless to say it’s been quite a ride so far! I’ve been having a blast getting into the Olympic spirit and learning as much as I can about this area, the people, and of course about the competitions and the skiers skiing in them.

I’ll be providing regular reports not only about the freeskiing events, but also about the experience of these Russian Games. Here are a few links to my first stories:
