So I just left Sungwoo resort in Korea, It's a crazy all included resort a few km's South of NOrth KOrea where it usually is pretty dry and where the really good cheesy music never stops playing no matter where you are.

They were hosting the World Championships here so I came to do the pipe event.

It was so fun to ride in the warm sun for a change and the pipe was small but really good. Was great to see everybody at last and even Matevz and Slovenian company who came to do the Big Air. 

Besides riding, Kareoke, bowling and Dance Dance Revolution video game was what we usually didin-between sessions. Its the hardest thing ever to test your dance skills with a machine and with a local KOrean kid that grew up bouncing up and down and learning all the dance moves.

Anyways, I didn't do to good in the pipe, but such is life,  I'll just have to redeem myself later . But the rest of the Canadian Crew did really well in BX, Race and pipe. Jeff Batchelor got second in pipe so that ended with more debauchery that night.

A few girls and I decided to ends things at the fabulous resort at last and go to Seoul for some serious shopping. We left early yesterday morning to find ourselves trying to figure out our hotel downtown somewhere, asking people and walking aorund in -20 something. So cold there it was amazing.

But we found our home for the night, dropped our stuff and went on our missiona and were quite succesful. We evenhad amazing food finally and ended our Korean trip with an Idian Feast last night.

So we all came to the airport early as we all had different flights all over the World and now I'm left alone with my luggage since it's way to early to check in for my Montreal flight.

Here a re a few photos from there.

Ciao
