Wow, a blog post!
Well here's the first new blog post in while. I just got done attending the Black Hills ski swap, which was a blast. To all the people that came to the booth interested in the skis, thanks a bunch. It was wonderful to see the support for local businesses. I mainly wanted to write this blog post to express my thankfulness for everyone who has encouraged and supported me in this incredible adventure. There are more people I need to thank than I care to even attempt to list. I guarantee if you think you might have helped somewhat, you helped at least 10 times what you realized. I feel incredible lucky to have this amount of encouragement to attempt to run South Dakota's first ski company.
On that note I would like to especially express my gratefulness to Industrial Engineering Department at the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology and the Ascent Innovation Center. They are the reason I have a manufacturing space in Rapid City. And of course my parents, which have supported me throughout as opposed to wondering why I don't get "real" job that "pays me".
Alas I don't know what this winter holds in store for FullSend Ski Company, but I'm looking forward to the unknown with eager anticipation and the knowledge that I'll get by with a little help from my friends.
Pitter patter lets get at er.
