For anyone that hasn’t started following this short segmented history of snowboarding I highly recommend it. You can view it here. I remember when I read the press release for this and Burton was sponsoring it, I figured that it would end up being Burton propaganda about how they invented snowboarding, but so far I’ve [...]
This year Vans is doing a Collaboration with Iron Maiden. The Etienne Jacket is nothing more than a spring shell but it rocks the fuck out like no other. At the end of the season I had a pair of Vans to warranty and like usual they lost my boots and just issued me a [...]
Hampus Mosesson is a pretty sick rider who kind of flew below the radar after leaving Gnu. Now he’s back on O matic snowboards with a new pro model coming out. With that he’s also part of a free movie that will debut on October 31st for download. Action Horse films Pony Tale looks to [...]
