Ryan Hackbarth: Defenders of Possum

After an interesting compilation of crashes at the start of this edit, you get to see some good tricks that get stomped. I’m not knocking the beginning of the edit in any way, it’s always great to start an edit with crashes. I’m just merely pointing out that it happens and there’s some incredible riding after it. Less of me rambling and more of me telling you who’s in the edit: Featuring Jordan Spohr, Ryan Hackbarth, Andy McDowell....

2/21/12 Throwback Day EV Trip Report

Howling ridge top winds today had me thinking of severe wind slabs. Temperatures were warmer by ten degrees from the previous day. Headed out into the whiteout to the Top of the World where no one one was. Grey, windy and spooky, it was a throwback day in EV. No cornice on the roll, so I could do this. No reaction to the hard slab chunks. Again nothing moving after the initial slide for life the chunks did....

AlienBees VagaBond Mini Review

As long as the mini stays covered [protected], it is perfectly fine. The battery part comes apart really easily, and the rest just breaks. Another thing you should be careful with is the light stand mount.

Salomon Jib Academy ? Ringkollen

Elling from Salomon picked me up at 10 am in Oslo, before we drove up to Ringkollen. Not far really, just a 30/40 minute drive. The weather did not play against us for once, which helped a lot. My group consisted of 9 skiers. No pressure, the way it’s supposed to be. When we called it a day at 8.30 in Ringkollen, we headed out on the road towards Dombas....
