Forum Destroyer and Lien Binding a closer look

Forum really has an interesting history with snowboarding. Honestly I haven’t ridden anything from them since the year we sold them in our shop and while hand flexing them the die cut would pop out. That was a great year for Forum.

After finishing up on the Riot, Jay and I headed back to Salomon to snag another board. I talked with the reps and said I wanted something stiffer. In turn they pulled out a in the wrapper Bang Bang for me to rock.

K2 Turbo Dream and Sweaters

I actually own this board but in a 156. At the time when I picked it that was the largest size available and I didn’t think they’d offer a 161 after I had signed up for Kamp K2. Now that I’ve had the chance to rock the 161 I figured I’d give it a whirl.

K2 WWW Rocker with K2 Sweaters a second look

I rode this board back in early February and I wasn’t overly impressed then. But I’ve noticed now with the more rockered boards I’ve ridden that maybe I wasn’t fully in tune with how it rode. So I’ve ventured back to take another look at it.

Free Finnish snowboard movie

Saw this posted up on snowboard-mag and thought I’d share it with everyone. Not the best movie out there, not a great movie, but just a fun movie

Almost Homeless Premier in Vail

Just talked to Bob one of the filmers, creators, distributors, editors, etc. etc. of Almost Homeless. You might remember their trailer I posted earlier. Anyways looks like this week they’ll be having a premier in Vail that should go better than the one in Breckenridge.
