Last week was a big one for snowboard films, where notable crews like Strange Brew, Pay the Rent, Onlookers, and Spotheads all blessed us with their footage. Check out all the videos, and feel the inspiration ensue.
A snapshot from Brian Knight's book, Snowboarding in Southern Vermont, highlighting a legendary Memorial Day halfpipe session at Stratton. From pioneering halfpipe riding to birthing the Bookclub crew, Southern Vermont is the place to thank.
Check out the impromptu skatepark right below Grizzly's. Iconic.
Jared Elston's Top 10 Camera Roll Moments
There's something to be said about someone's camera roll. It can tell you more about someone than any conversation ever could. If you didn't know who Mason Lewery is, these ten clips will give you a better idea. If that's not enough context, then here's two preseason shots from Peter Cirilli.
Roullete Rich just dropped their first street movie, Beginner's Luck. They're a new crew with seasoned riders like
Jack Wiley, Xander Cornaby, Jed Sky and Christian Buling. Our eyes really perked up when we saw clips from Eugene Stancato. Glad to see @genebeanpheind setting time aside from operating cranes to get into the streets. We missed him.The annual Pat Moore x Baldface Lodge risk maturity course went down last week. The minds of Nils Midnich, Robin Van Gyn, Kelsey Boyer, Griffin Siebert, Sage Kotsenberg, Hannah Beamen, among many others, spent the week tackling the ever developing reality of risk tolerance. The backcountry is as precarious as the avalanches that threaten it, so it's comforting to see some of the best bettering their snow safety knowledge.
After Dustbox's Dreamcastle, it's clear Denver should be the topic of conversation for street spots this upcoming winter. We were confident every crew would be booking flights to the Mile High City after the first inch hit the ground, but things are looking grim. Denver's yet to see any snowfall this winter, making it 247 consecutive days without our favorite kind of precipitation. It is the longest snowless stretch in recorded history. This unusual December weather bums us out, but to add insult to injury, there are Hawaii blizzard warnings right now.
