StevefisherHard to believe the snowboard season is already starting. Would be nice if it would snow a little first.

It’s Copper Mountain’s turn to take center stage in the snowboarding world with this weekend’s U.S. Snowboard Grand Prix opener, featuring top halfpipe riders Steve Fisher, Louie Vito, Auntti Autti, Gretchen Bleiler and Hannah Teter. . . . The 13-year-old tour moves from Breckenridge to Copper for the first time, opening with women’s pipe qualifying at 10:30 a.m. Thursday, men’s qualifying Friday at 9 a.m. and halfpipe finals beginning at 11 a.m. Saturday.

Just though you should know.
