Good Times
I've probably seen the full movie 1000x with being on daily rotation when my crew of friends and I moved up to Mammoth to clean the main lodge toilets at night / ride our snowboards during the day. It was a fun time in snowboarding,...

Made the annual trek out to Denver for the SIA / Snowsports show. Always a good time seeing old friends, checking my work & hopefully getting my shred on. This year it was actually winter like & the snow was amazing for the demo days. Like powder days amazing. Good times. Check after the jump for more photos of the shenanigans…
Known Willie from Bluebird a long, long, long, long time. Rad dude. I'm surprised he could make something like this so fun to watch because he's always so serious, as many people who live in Jackson, WY usually are #sarcasm...
Just announced at the Apple WWDC (World Wide Developers Conference) is Apple's new operating system, which moves on from cats to inspirational places in California, the first being OS X Mavericks. Valhalla's vote for the next: OS X Del Mar Skateranch. In another nod to...
Max Jenke is a former pro-shred & one of the founders of Endeavor Snowboards. In case you didn't know, Endeavor kills it on the design front. I've talked with him a few times & he's a really nice guy. He's up for a $100k grant...
Volcom takes the cake in our inaugural Logo World Championship of the World. After a couple close rounds when battling Quiksilver & Powell Peralta, Volcom rolled through the final taking 78.3% of the vote in it's battle vs Vans.We'd like to thank everyone who...
Daniel Blom's been at it, documenting the snowboarding lifestyle for the past ten years. We worked with him a few years back on our Ascape project for Armstrong Flooring. He's a great photographer (and nice guy), this book should definitely be worth checking out.Check it...
brightcove.createExperiences();Travis basically made a "north shore" snowboard run. Thankfully they chose to do it in the only area in America with snow this season....
Pretty cool article / Video on Jeremy Jones (free ride) on National Geographic's site. Check out the full article here....
Can’t wait. Summer’s working time so we can play all winter.
More inside!
Oh hell no. Love snakes, super cool creatures. But see how these have diamond shaped heads? That means they’re not nice snakes. Pretty amazing collection of snake photos over this way.
Great font called Crescendo by Canadatype, featured in this post over on Quipsologies
More snake photos & fun after the jump!
Andy’s not only one of the best snow photographers out there, he’s also a cool person. Fun walking through his snow photo history with him, I remember wayyy too many of these photos.
Sometimes, in the heat of the battle, we forget to post up stuff that we’ve done. This is one of those times. We started working with Dale Rehberg about a year ago now on his new endeavor, brand manager of NXTZ. Facemask designs turned into catalogs which turned into POP & branding. A season’s designs are down & now we’re working on new designs & more evolved branding. check after the jump for a few more items we’ve done for NXTZ.
On our semi-regular list of checks is the DDC site. Draplin & I have been running in the same circle for a number of years & only a matter of time until our paths cross in person. It's always interesting to see what he has...
ESPN's Real Snow videos are up. Up above is JP Walker's edit where he puts some good midwest mid-century architecture to good use (others do as well). Pretty cool clips. Jeremy Jones' work with his ridiculous spinnermajig binder is crazy and Simon Chamberlain's rail skills...
Saw this over on Boardistan & couldn't not post it. 23's an amazing chair which serves Mammoth's lift-accessed steep terrain like the Wipeout / Dropout chutes & the Paranoids amonst others. This tube is there to protect you from the not-so-subtle winds that go hand...
We're extremely busy pumping stuff out for clients to the left and right at the moment & don't want you to feel neglected, so we decided to post up a couple sites which are on our regular check list. If you guys like this, let...
Tonight Omatic’s own Louie Vito danced his way into onto the Olympic stage landing himself a solid 5th place. Check after the jump to see the story of how this relates to our blog…
Nope, don’t try it, SIA doesn’t want them (this will make sense if you check the rest of the post, I promise). Just got back from the SIA show now in Denver. Lots changed, lots the same.
Twenty years of shredding is a long time. Twenty years ago in snowboarding was a different world. To celebrate it’s 20th anniversary, the MMSC asked us to do a revise of their logo.
We don’t know how they did it, but we’re pretty sure that Bear Mountain somehow remotely opened at Mammoth today. Every “head” that would normally be found on a February Saturday afternoon at Bear was up at Mammoth for it’s opening today, the mountain’s second earliest opening ever.
