Jackson Hole Ripper John Makens

Jackson Hole is an area of the world that is home to some serious names in the snowboard world. You have Guch, Travis Rice, Mark Carter, and many more rippers of that caliber. John Makens is one of those rippers who also wears the hat of business owner. Here’s a look at a man you [...]

Forum Scallywag with Shakas my take

Perhaps snowboarding pirates will be the hot new trend on the hill this year.  After all we have guys twisting bottle caps into their flowing locks and others tying dream catchers to their goggles.

Riders of the Lost Park

Another film coming from Oregon with some guys that are getting some recognition now. Who you might ask? Johnnie Paxson to name one. So anyways check out a flick from 06 with guys that ride better than me.

Forum Youngblood and Shakas my take

So here’s a deck that’s supposed to represent the youth blah blah blah of tomorrow blah blah blah. Either way it was a different ride than the Destroyer but that continuous rocker bull shit is just something that I can’t fathom why they would do it. Check it out.

Forum Destroyer and Shaka’s my take

Realistically Forum is just Burtons foster child now. They get a bit of love and some trickle down technology but what they once were isn’t who they are now at this point in time. I’ve never been a fan of Forum even back in the day always thought they were an over hyped brand that [...]

Parkumentary: Know Your Roots

When you think about park progression there’s one place that should always remain the true mecca of freestyle snow sliding. A place that has created common park features that are used world wide like the “box”. Bear Mountain definitely solidifies itself as the grandfather of creativity and forward thinking progressive park features and for that [...]

Here’s a film that follows the Flow team for 6 weeks and documents what’s going on.

Do It Yourself

Here’s the first offering from Finnish film company ELO Productions. It’s part Isenseven, part documentary, and definitely full of shred. Watch as they take it from the park, to pow, to the streets, and even to the craziest backyard rhythm section ever.
