NAME FOR FAME ? The Countdown ?

and you could be the WINNER of a super fly Amplid snowboard/skis. Jon Olson gave us the Kangaroo flip. Halldor Helgason?s warped mind invented the Lobster flip. Remember Jim Rippey and Terje Haakonson? Yep you guessed it, they?ve both got inverts named after them too. Now it is time for you to join the club. Amplid wants you to create a completely new trick or add your own little twist to a classic....

New Season and New Work

Our heads continue to fill with ideas and visions, but funding remains elusive for a full length project. As for myself, things have come full circle. That was the beginning of the end. My childhood dream was formed. Some of those films were the early Teton Gravity Research films. I literally wore those VHS’s out I watched them so much. This winter I am the Whistler based cinematographer for TGR....

The Mayor of East Vail Bio and 1/25/12 Report

Meet the man who defines grace under pressure. Ironically, he got his ass handed to him in CDC. Now he likes to ski Tweeners and yell at people across the valley about what they are doing wrong. Here’s to you mayor of EV! Self- elected to the fourteenth consecutive term. Master of all he sees and you as well if you venture into his district! Step aside and show him the proper respect!...

My favourite trick of the month

This little trick is the most funny trick I have done in a long time. It is not way steezy, nor is it insane or sick.

new sickness video!

Our main man ripping it up in EV. A true Vail local holding it down in the EV backcountry. No regard for his own safety as he massages the trees with such grace. His backcountry etiquette is impeccable, video camera attached to a ski pole as he snowboards. Ready at any moment to grab his cell phone to call vail rescue to save his buddies. Pausing in avalanche chutes, mouth agape, surveying the terrain…intense!...

Ski to Die Hell Yeah! Old Man’s Revisit 1/24/12

Headed up the Visti sipping a forty and listening to Def Leppard. Around Visti pole six I shot up, and by the top I was feeling loose. By the time I reached the Top of the World, I was cross-eyed and tingling. Passed out in the trees at the bottom. Woke up an hour later, and started my traverse out. Crowns and debris were everywhere in areas over thirty degrees, N-NE facing in the trees....

Snowcial 2012 Video Recap

I recently attended the 2012 Snowcial conference, which is basically the convergence of social media and the ski industry… and a few drinks. It was a phenomenal event with fantastic speakers like Joe Fernandez from Klout, Jonathan Crowley of Foursquare, Porter Gale, and Rob Katz the CEO of Vail Resorts. Panels also included the likes of Daron Rahlves, Mark Ervin of IMG and Bryan Crowley the CMO of Pabst (invite him to your conference, he brings beer)....

Vail Scenics

We had some great turns within the resort boundaries. It was DEEP in several zones. Weather conditions have been leaving CO snow enthusiasts walking on eggshells. Always be careful, be aware of your surroundings and the terrain you are on. Don’t ride in closed areas. Even if there are tracks, it can still be unstable.
