Season Pass Collection

The other day the boys and I pulled our season passes off the coats and put em to the chains downstairs. Milo's up to 4 season passes now, Mac 3 and this was my 20th. I've got every year except 04/05, when coming back from Euroland my travel bag got poached. Here's a couple hi-lites from the years...

1988 Tenny Mountain Certified Snowboarder. Had to cruise around with a SKI Patrol to get this. CB coat. Recognize.
Year 1 in Steamboat. Oakley Grips on my BMX bike, Pilots on my face and headbands. Oaked out.
On the back of the 1990/91 pass is this pict from Transworld. You can see me in the right corner holding Griff by the pants. I've got a orange Oakley headband on here along with some sweet Blades. He shot the below photo.
In 1996 moved to Boulder to work for Wave Rave. Got a Vail card and because I shot photo's for this shitty rag, Colorado Ski Country gave me this VIP pass that got me on any mountain in CO for free.

The Northwave Gold Pass days. Good anywhere in WA. Incredible but photoless.
Triple threat...Stevens, Breckenridge and the Summit.

It's not the pictures, it's the articles


I remember peeps defending their subscriptions to Playboy with those words. Well if it worked for them, it's gonna work for me. 3 sites that I've cum across lately have a tad bit of nudity in there but you don't click on em for the shots, it's for the words. Winners like these:

"Jesus, I have seen stabbing victims more attractive than this farm animal. I knew I was in trouble from the front picture. This broad has a lot of miles on the odometer and she has not followed the maintenance plan. The triple chin was a bad sign. With the clothes off, the situation only escalates downhill."

"Now I'm hungry for a cucumber salad. I like her idea of going green."

"(410): That chick was all over your bacon last night, grinding on you, I thought you were going to bang her in the club
(301): Dude it was a lap dance"

April Ender


Enough's never enough and off we went to the Summit at Snoqualimie for another day as they're open for a couple more weekends. UltraFlairs were out in hordes confusing the hell out of me as they were all on CAPiTA's and Unions. We ended up hooking up with a bunch of Stevens kids who were milking it like we were then off to Greenlake for a concrete sesh. Back to life in the city...

UltraFlair



Sucks that Stevens is closed down as I won't get my weekly viewing of "UltraFlair." This kid is classic. Nomis / Stepchild / T9 team stickers all over the deck, every accessory possible added to his kit. Even better is following his ass down the hill watching him try to do the snow dance butterthon which is clearly not in his deck of cards. UltraFlair, have a good summer.

employment inquiry


Got a resume today with this objective: "Gain employment in a warehouse or shipping facility, as well as gain additional warehousing skills."

He then lists his employment history as such:

8/14/07 to 10/11/08 Warehouse work, skateboard deck crew

2/3/07 to 4/24/07 Janitor cleaning office buildings

7/4/06 to 9/19/06 Laborer

1/7/06 to 3/28/06 Laborer

Cool right, then the dude throws this little gem in at the end. "I have narcolepsy for which I take medication. My frequent job changes in the past have been due to issues associated with my condition. When on medication I am able to be a productive worker and consistent in my attendance."


Hmmmm, you didn't take your meds during your last 4 jobs...we'll get to hiring you right away buddy.


Stevens Pass Season Ender


Done till next year. Grassy ass Stevens Pass and Staff. 4 stars.

Season Ender C3 Oh-Limp-Picks




Last Friday we shut things down around work for the C3 Oh-Limp-Picks. Which went a little something like this:

"Time to put the man suit on cause it’s back, the “C3 Oh-Limp-Picks” held at the Top Phlite Snowboard Park at Stevens Pass, THIS FRIDAY. Two runs of glory thru the famed Top Phlite Park showing your skillz that pay the bills in a quest for Gold, Silver and Bronze medals will be voted on by a panel of your work peers. Prizes such as a case of Red Bull, Sug Dollz and Capita Food Court Gangsta hats are all up for grabs for the top tweekerz.
Former Professional Sno-Borederz and present day designers, Brad Shuffle and Blue Montgomery are taking on all comers for the titles that they respectively hold. Brad being the Gold Medalist, with Blue being runner up and taking Silver during the last Oh-Limp-Picks held 4 years ago at Snoqualmie Pass. It was a fight to the death with Brad pulling out a wicked Suzy Q helicopter over the tabletop that took top honors.
The truth of the matter is that Stevens is shutting down and this Friday we would like to have a company shred and bbq day there. RSVP letting me know who is down for some “Agony of Defeat and Thrill of Victory” so ample food and sauce arrangements can be made. Anyone needing a pass for the day also let me know. Car pool plans and meeting spot plans will be emailed out tomorrow."

The cast and crew from COAL came out in a force of 4, along with the 3 art guys in the warehouse, George from Union and Blue from Capita. Special guest Jonas the Bonus Carlson dropped in for some sessioning too which put our head count at a dozen.
"Bonus"

In the end, B-Rad emerged from cigarette smoking Euro Brad to take the gold medal once again with some wicked smooth ass bs 5 indys pokes over waterfall, while Joe Florence from Coal grab the MVP award for straight up killing shit.

Can't wait to leave notes with this shit.

Skullcandied


Holy care package from Luke. The entire orfice is outfitted and kitted with Skull Candy. Thanks dudes.

Greenlake


Cruise by Greenlake yesterday on the way back from my MRI on the knee and peep this action. Something tells me that's all I'll be doing here this summer. Peepin.

"Are you readyyyyyyyyyy!"


Mac had his first T-Ball practice for the "Thunderchiefs" on Monday and after ralling the kids into a frat house like frenzy I bolted down town to meet Sessions Joe for a mellow beer b4 the show. Joe hands me a beer and the phone rings: "Dude, what the fuck are you doing? We go on in 15 minutes. Your tickets are at will call under Jewhan Molokoski." "Fuck, I'll be right there." Guzzle the Full Sail IPA and off we roll to the Showbox. Grab our tickets and Obi Won Kanobi our asses on stage with them all access passes. The place was packed, the usual Wise fans were in attendance but something was different. Teenybopper girls lined the front row this time. Weird. Then it clicked when the second band came on, Pepper. Dudes roll onto stage, no shirts, tan with a sound some where inbetween 311 and Sublime. The room was musty with lust to say the least. The Wise needs to follow that lead next show so instead of getting shoes and beers chucked at em, panties start flying.

Notice the beers on the speaker when the band has clothes on?
Now peep the padded size "B" lace bra that replaces the brew once the shirts are removed.

Dee Sign Meat Ting

As soon as the cabin was clean and Sparky and family were in the vehicles heading back to Seattle, my front yard was filled with 16 dudes ready to get things done over the next few days. A couple of US reps, Canada distributor's, Brand Managers, Joni Mak, Gigi Ruf and Draplin made up the Think Tank at Stevens Pass. The boys there graciously gave us a building to ourselves along with plenty of lift tickets for the out of towners to get the creative juices flowing on thoughts of 2010/11 product.
Giggles and Joni.
Think Tank
Brass cock and balls bottle opener.

Sweaty brought up this shit called "God's Gift" and after having some thought that Boris's dog jerky was Oh Boy Oberto and polished off 12 pieces with some cheese and crackers. I guess that's why they call that shit dope huh?
Mike Scott is our CDN partners No Limits Marketing guy. He got wicked over the hip.

Spring Break


Spring Break Oh Nine from Nose Dradamous on Vimeo.
My room mate "Sparky" from Salem State came out this past week with his two rats Ryann and Jake for a family get together hoe down. It's pretty damn fun to share times on the hill again since we used to shred the hell out of Tenny Mountain, NH way back when. Sparky's family had a house at the mountain and pretty much every weekend we were there skiing and then snowboarding thru out our 5 year college stint. I credit his family for letting me be part of theirs during that time for getting so stoked on mountain life. So it's pretty rad that 25 years later we can share our place with his family and continue that stoke. Especially when there was 36" of pow on Thursday, a couple more new inches on Friday and that made for a great start of the vaca pow turns. Then Saturday and Sunday the sun came into town and it was a park fiesta. Every afternoon the shovel's would come out and Skull Mountain got put thru the ringer with progression session after progression session. All while Sparks and I shovelled to the tune of Sessions beers going down the throats. The 2nd annual Hoe Down Throw Down was on Sunday and three of them cleaned up in slopestyle. Mac would of gotten something had we entered him but Wiener gave the competition another year to enjoy his wrath.
