Once again, the time is now behind us to crown the best riders, footage, and videos in snowboarding. Voting for the Fifth Annual Torment Snow Globes went down back in early-March, and we spent the past few weeks sifting through over 45,000 votes to understand who will go home with this year's globes.
Before we get into the analytics, we can't help but thank you for commemorating your favorite riders, video parts, and films of the past year. Your votes do not go unnoticed—even if they were rigorously flagged by our IT team. Just like years past, there was no shortage of shit-related email prefixes or unintelligible domains, and that form of democratic response honestly made this process that much more enjoyable.
