One good way of doing this is by using a skateboard as a tool. You will have to move your center of gravity over you back foot. I like to do this by showing the hip to the side and slightly bending the body. When doing some other spin variations it is not ideal. Try balancing just standing still on a skateboard like this. Start rolling on the flat on one foot....
WINNER: SIVER VOLL Welcome to the first Style Showdown of the ‘16/‘17 season. We’ll be posting one showdown per week throughout the winter, so stay tuned. We drop a showdown between two skiers. You vote for your favorite skier, and the winner gets bragging rights. Without further ado, up first is The Hood Crew’s very own Alec Nelson. Expect plenty of weird shit in his segment this year. Siver started freeskiing 8 years ago, and made it to finals in Superunkown XIII....
If you browse through the comment section of the Vimeo or Newschoolers page on which this legendary video resides, you’ll find dozens of posts along these lines: Clayton’s follow up project,FIVE, was equally impressive in terms of tricks simply couldn’t match the hype that his Mutiny part had generated. All in all, I think we speak for the majority of skiers in backing this part as one of the greatest movie segments in skiing history....
Where as a snowboard was flexy, it had a different sidecut, it was multi-directional. That ski is what made me want to change skiing, desperately. I just thought they were not what I wanted to show about skiing. They were representing the direction I wanted to go. Out of the creative freedom from projects like Royalty, Nimbus Independent was born. Its about being able to jump on it real quick and tell a quick story, then disappear…...
Cover photo courtesy of Alexandre Gauthier How ya doin boys? Let’s start with this: Who is your crew? Have you guys all been skiing together for some time now? Guillaume Landry:I’m doing great, thanks for asking! Most of the boys lived around Joliette and knew each other since childhood. I was born there also but moved to Montreal when I was 6. My friend Benjamin was making park edits every single winter and I got interested in video making....
You also need to be able to do excellent and small cork 5s and 7s on snow. In step 4 we go through what to think about when doing double corks on a water ramp. I spot the landing as early as I can when I am estimating the second cork. Missing the grab is quite common on water ramps. Despite how god the tuck and mute grab felt here I did not work....
Thanksgiving is a time for reflection, family, and food. Family arguments are, however, almost as inevitable as eating too much turkey. Grandma explained, its even catching on in powder. Did you see how fucking sick AhmetsBook of Timespart was? Overhearing this comment, Grandma snapped back are you kidding me?! That Simon needs to take his poles out of his ass and watch LSM ski. No poles is the future. Simon refused to comment, deferring to a pre-prepared statement....
Simple enough, 6000ft vertical (all of which was open last weekend) for $220. Hopefully, I’ll see you there! Saastal Bergbahnen AG announced today that the deal would be going ahead.

We decided to activate the deal once we hit 75,000 registrations. Reaction to the campaign has been very positive....
And thats because the solution to going uphill and still enjoying the down isnt obvious. Since then the different basic designs have progressed in different directions. There are even new takes on what the optimal solution is like the CAST system. And all the while the trekker has plodded on unchanged and unloved. I reached out to Giray and Chris to further explain what it is theyve built. The principle of the Daymakers is the same as the Trekker....
847408 Eric Pollards first trip to Idaho didnt go so well. A new sled that Pollard bought sight-unseen. Its a piece that hell likely tell more than once. It affects everything, its chapter one in his story. My whole thing has been trying to work with my friends. The fact that hes surrounding himself with friends like that says a lot to me. Its days and friends like these that gave birth to Nimbus Independent....
https://www.newschoolers.com/videos/watch/846917/Remembering-Roner---Streetbike-Tommy-Skydive If you know Nitro Circus, you know Streetbike Tommy. It only seems right to have Roner alongside him on his first jump. https://www.newschoolers.com/videos/watch/846920/Remembering-Roner---Swiss-BASE-Jump A day’s worth of base jumping in Lauterbrunnen, Switzerland. It’s really important to me, I look at it really seriously." https://www.newschoolers.com/videos/watch/846922/Remembering-Roner---Camel-Racing Witness Roner round out the podium of a camel race in the Australian Outback. https://www.newschoolers.com/videos/watch/846925/Remembering-Roner---Stadium-BASE-Jump #1. Arguably Roner’s favorite stunt from Nitro Circus, his grand entrance....
What inspired the films name, Within Winter? Naming things has always been a tough one for me. Like Bros Who Ski" or Video of Things. But eventually my smart ‘English-degreed’ sister came up with Within Winter. I felt it resonated with the message of the film. I wanted a simple name that conveyed what the film told. That being that, skiing in its simplest form is about experience among others....
