new links

a couple new links in, you guessed it, the "links" section.
including this one to Almond Mfg. on how to noboard your snowboard, split board, divorce board.

saving for your new board

you've been slaving all Fall for your new board. the rain is falling the mountain is about to open or already has; and you still need a few more bucks. this might be a helpful tip. selling some old stuff can help you buy those new things you NEED. maybe you could sell a VHS player? people will give them away usually, but with the right packaging and the right cliental it could be worth a few bucks.

round up as many free VCR's as you can, then go through your old VHS snowboard vid collection, keep the good ones, and tape the crappy ones to the top with some packing tape to create a "package deal". then list it on craigslist, or if you live in a snowboard town it could fly at a pawn shop. make sure to title it with the words, "VINTAGE", or "THROW-BACK"... people dig that shit.
(if you can come up on any of these golden titles you may be able to use them to boost your package-deal price a little but more.)

now sit back and watch the change come rolling in. this should all get you about $10, so you might need to start quick, DWD boards are going fast!

thanksgivin'

black friday was yesterday in the US, the biggest shopping day of the year there. no matter where you are, go support your local shop... there's a whole list of them in the "dealers" section on the site here.
winter is here (in the northern hemisphere), even if it hasnt snowed yet, it will soon.

SEEMOUR Hips

Seymour opening weekend was the most epic opener ever, to say the least. Jan Snarski from Video Grass made this little edit of the action packed weekend.

holy sheep shit.

we interrupt this "snowboard" blog, for this piece of amazingness.
next time you think your job stunts your creative side remember these sheep herders... and know that your just not being creative enough.

Mt.Seymour opening day

matt heneghan, just to mention one of many partysnakes that were there.

filmer Jan opening day 270? yes.

this is a public service announcement to remind you that skiing sucks. once your old enough to dress yourself there is no need to freestyle ski. you also have an obligation to remind your skier friends that skiing is not okay. actually... why do you have skier friends? ask yourself that.

mmmmmmm...

saw this in the book store in portland. no idea what it's about, but the back made it sound pretty good.

think green

weird... these green union bindings will look perfect on the MAET board.
