On day two the crowd inside the convention center thickened and the cloudy blur of randomness began. Being in Vegas is sensory overload already but inside the tradeshow- the white lights, blaring music, random objects flying in all directions, and a mumbled mesh of new snowboard product- is enough to drive anyone temporarily insane. Many snowboard pro peeps were out and about- Louie Vito, Eric Jackson, Iikka Backstrom, Aaron Biittner, Lauri Heiksari, Travis Rice, Mark Carter, Jamie Anderson, Marie-France Roy, Romain DeMarchi, JP Solberg, and many, many others. It was really cool to see so many heads all in one place at the same time.
