Round 2 - My 9 year old son is a throttle jockey!

Its no secret , we in central oregon have a ton of snow still . In fact its snowing up there right now. Yesterday we went out in 65* weather for some backcountry snowboarding . Mini shred helped shuttle us old guys out from Mt Bachelor/ Dutchman parking lot , to Moon Mtn. between shuttling us back to the top of the jump , I snapped this pic of him catching some air on his 700 RMK. Launcher!
Funny , you can see the tow rope flailing in the back.


Love that boy!
Just like his pappy .

Wait, a dad that lets the kid be a sled neck and gives out free beer... Just wait till he hits high school. I'm not often jealous, but damn!
