Deeper Unplugged Ep. 2 – WTF @ that couloir

C’mon now, look at that thing! That looking up shot at 2:09, seriously? Jeebus.

Influences v1.0

If a picture is worth a thousand words this post falls somewhere between your average blog post and ‘War and Peace’. To be continued….

Jeremy Jones and crew redefining ‘hardcore’

Jeremy Jones and crew have been up in the sunshine state of Alaska for a month or so, filming for the movie Deeper due out sometime in 2010. If you’ve been following the blog you’ve noticed that I’m anxiously awaiting this movie like a 12 year old girl waiting for a Jonas Brothers concert. From [...]

TR: Weekends are far too short

Seriously, they are. Picture how much happier the world would be (well, at least my world would be) if weekends were Monday thru Friday and you just worked Saturday and Sunday. I guess that idea is a lot like my ‘we should get to play until we reach retirement age, than when we hit retirement [...]

Backcountry turns = srs bizns

Bored out of my mind at work, I was looking thru some photos from this weekend’s tour and noticed that most people were smiling when we found our little pow stash. However, noticed one person wasn’t, which was odd as it was his first trip into the backcountry ever, would have figured him to be [...]

One pic TR: some Saturdays are better than others

Travis Rice’s splitboards

Brian Pattee at Down the Middle custom splitboards recently got the call from Mr. T. Rice, who was looking to get a few boards split before he headed to Alaska to film with Jeremy Jones and the ‘Deeper‘ crew. The fact that Travis had to call up Brian means that obviously the long rumored Lib [...]

Rome Snowboards hut trip

This vid cracks me up as they get dropped off by a real heli with their poor man’s helis (splitboards/touring gear), and they “left the sleds back at the house in revy”, but still cool that a big name team is getting after it by (mostly) human power.

Jeremy Jones “Boots are Made for Walking”

Seriously, how can you not like this guy?  Besides the fact that he drives his poor man’s Prius up to use his poor man’s heli (splitboard) and slays the bejeezus out of any line, he’s down to earth and trying to bring snowboarding back to it’s roots.  Love it. Sadly ESPN won’t let you embed [...]
