Slopestyle Survey

That made her question the long-term sustainability of her sport. That was one of the goals of this survey. We asked what shape jumps they want to see at competitions. Only 10 percent said their favorite jumps were step-downs, while 74 percent prefer the safer true tables. We asked how many features they want to see in a course and the majority answered six to seven. The most dramatic differences were found when comparing the course preferences and injury rates of men to women....

RadioPopper ? First Look

Action sports photographers are the kind of photographers who require the most out of their remote flash triggers. There are a few things that every action photographer looks for when choosing a system. Unlike shooting in studio, where everything just works fine, we get to shoot at some rad locations. Whether at a crazy canyon in Moab, the half-pipe at winter X Games, or the big booter at Crankworx, we always need reliable equipment that not only works…....

Adventures in Transition II: Episode III

I moved away at the age of fourteen and have not returned for a single winter until this season. A lot has changed in those nine years, but a lot has stayed the same. Returning to the homeland meant I had to meet up with my childhood ski buddy, Ross Falcone. We had a fantastic time making this one, hope you all enjoy!

Monster Energy team shoot and my first turns back on snow

First off, sorry about my lack of updates. I thought photos of me doing squats and leg press were getting pretty old. I’m still not %100.

I arrive and its beautiful, 20′c, SO damn slushy and perfect....

Finals tomorrow, and it’s going to be a long day....
