We wish everyone in Thunderstruck land out there a very happy New Year and hope that as the snow gets deep your riding season is safe and fun! We have been having a ball with all the fresh powder and sunshine! We’ve been riding our local haunts a bunch lately as we prepare to hit several new riding areas in the next month or so. Some unfortunate news. . . One of the Thunderstruck sleds was vandalized a while back as it sat on the back of the owner’s truck. We are pretty sure we know who did it and believe me, karma will come a knockin’. To all you who think vandalism on other’s property is cool, shame on you. You suck.

On a lighter note, I’ve been riding with the Utah Turbo hounds and Doc Nesbo and have got some amazing photography and video already. Editing on Thunderstruck 4.5 has been delayed due to another computer problem, but it is still on schedule! Believe it or not, I’m trashing all the PCs and going to an APPLE G5 something or other! So I will be learning a whole new editing system while working on TS4.5. I will be editing TS4.5 on the Apple so when you hear me screaming in frustration at night, you’ll know why!

We are also courting new bands right now for both TS4.5 and TS5 which is due out in August. If you know of a great local band that has a CD out, have them contact us ASAP!

Watch for our trailers roaming all over as the snow is falling and we start getting into the realm of things. Cannot wait for Expo and the Hillclimbs and thanks again to all those who support us and take the time to read through our site! See you soon!
