Winters back

Go figure it's almost April. 10+ today, figuring on the same for tomorrow. Mi was gettin it.

Round two

Thursday, pick up Korn while Griff spends the night on the concrete floor of Chicago International Airport. Roll up to Sky and visit the Whipper for a evening of laughing at Griffs situation.
Friday, on the lift at 9:22AM. Report says 5" new, I say 10". Proceed to have an epic day, laughing at Griffs expense.

Saturday gives us a sunny spring park day.

Sunday offers WA rain.

All aspects covered for this three day trip.

Later Korn.

Uhhhh

"Uhhh, I'm stuck in Chicago bro. My 9AM flight bumped me and the 4 oclocks looking full too. On top of that, I can't get back to Providence cause that's sold out. Uhhh what should I do?"
Griff

B.F.T.P.

Last weekend there was a Inferno re-union party in Steamboat. I missed it due to prior commitments but look who was there. PUNK ROCK MIKE. This dude showed up in the Boat in 92ish, straight out of FLA. Dude ran a 26" stance, no high backs on a Santa Cruz stick with full skate style while the rest of us were worrying about doing bump runs on our Kemper Screamers with 16" stances and cant plates. Needless to say, he clued a few of us in on the future of snowboarding. If you watched the Craig Kelly movie, Let It Ride, homey had a quick section on there with Pinkerman ollieing onto the picnic table. Good to see ole Mike still looks like a champ.

Hatties Hat

Mr. Spaghetti played to a crowd of 30 people last night at Hatties Hat in ole Ballard. Intimate and entertaining to say the least. He did two covers that absolutely ruled. "Piss up a rope" from Ween and "Sammy Hagar weekend" by Thelonious Monster. Both them bands would of been proud of Eddies renditions. Thanks bud.

Really Jesse?

Would you choose this:

or dis?

Si papi, eye likey the spicey brown one.

New clicker

Dude, pulling the trigger on this tomorrow. HD, stereo, compact and a 14X zoom ta boot. Combo'n this HD movie shit with some Adobe Premier Elements 8 and I'm gonna be ready to produce some truly professional shitty content movies. Once I learn how to use all the stuff.

Thanks Shay

Hey Johan
I was in Skykomish today visiting my dad and left a gift for your stabbin cabin. I put it on the back porch in a garbage bag to make it blend in. Anyway enjoy and hope you like it for your cabin.

Ain't no thing but a CHICKENWING

This Thursday...

this scene from 20 years ago will be re-created (w/o Gorgeous Matt Bourgeous though). Jason "Roffe" Krauth, Ponytail Malkoski and U.K.I.A. will be shralping the pass like no other. Looking forward to it.

The Ultimate

Congrats go out to the Dirty Doozers brother Chad Shetler for taking home his SECOND Ultimate Boarder title. Our boy Brandon Cocard partnered up with Rob Machado and Christian Hosoi for the team title. What ever that means. Cool.

The Carvefather

"This is my buddy Larry Zacks, of ReMax Reality in Meripax New York and we're here at Hunter Mountain, snow making capital of the world!"

Sun, fun, beers and handplants

Tristan went mellow style at yesterdays "Big Air Fiesta" once he saw 13 year old Matt Penny stomping switch bs9's with no landing gear down. That didn't stop him from dropping this hand plant that Pat Bridges would of been stoked on.

Happy 40th Chappy

30% more comfy

Seeing how there's no Baldface for me this year, it was extremely nice of Snowboarder Kyle to make me feel like I was there with these comfy ass slippers.

Time for a hug

I get up, and nothing gets me down.
You got it tough. I've seen the toughest soul around.
And I know, baby, just how you feel.
You've got to roll with the punches to get to what's real
Oh can't you see me standing here,
I've got my back against the record machine
I ain't the worst that you've seen.
Oh can't you see what I mean?

Oh I see what you mean David. This song must be about his DAUGHTER Avy. I'm guessing your career choice has to do with Daddy not hugging you enough?

Top 10?

Important moments in snowboarding. So says the Smithsonian. I can agree with most of them but, I'll tell you that Ingmar hitting this shit needs to be in there. As well as the Breckenridge jump session with Rehyberg, Roan Rogers and Nate Cole in the Hard the Hungry and the Homeless.

Missed opportunity

Fuck me on this one. I haven't been to the land of the Rising Sun and this would of been awesome. IF...IF Korn wasn't coming out for 3 days and or Griff wasn't coming out for 3 weeks!

Dear Johan,
Hope everything is well with you.
I met and saw and watched you many time in Seattle, but this is my first time to send you an email
Yes. It would be awesome to see you racing the banked slalom in Japan.
I just wanted to bring the raven from Mt.Baker, and to make an oppurtunity for you guys to come checking out Japan.
John Logic said, Marty is on crack 'cause asking him to cover $200 for your travel expenses, but Logic also said you should come.
How do you like the idea?
Temple and Matt Cummins are on the way!
The event will be in Kawaba Resort (not really resort) in Gummna, Japan.
Only a couple hours driving from Tokyo, and the date is March 27th (practice day) and 28th (the day).
Hope you can come.
Takashi

I thought it was called being BAKED???

Apparently not, because there's a couple of groups called "rock balancing" and "rockstacking" out there that people post pictures too. Which one are you gonna join?

And people wonder why it's called dope.

Happy St. Pattys Day

Look how cute this little Ginzo is dressed as a leprechaun.

Gittin sum

There limited edition of course, so get your dollars in a row. YO.

What I learned in Orlando Florida

Restaurant Chains thrive there, no mom and pops good eats to be found.

The place is real expensive. Real expensive.

College Bookstores cater to “COLLEGE KIDS” but the people that run these stores are Grand Ma’s and Grand Pa’s. Extremely out of touch.

We felt out of touch at the College Book Store trade show.

It’s good to go out of your comfort zone.

There is no “distribution” issues with Colleges.

Met a dude whose business is pillow cases. Was the highlight of the trip.

Luke Edgar can drink Jaeger anywhere and have a good time.

Cab drivers take extreme pride in their rigs. We went to Tai food in an Escalade XL that was super dope, for the same price that a Haitian would have taken us there in a shit box.

There’s Haitian relief in Florida. There called taxi drivers and they are extremely relieved to be living in Florida.

Y’all is a word used in every sentence.

You can get sunburn when it’s cloudy out.

You can’t drink booze till noon on Sunday because it’s the Bible belt. Jesus DID turn water into wine for a reason.

I will never go there again

Like father like son

Looks like mini Sabatella will be doing the old "whoooo ohhhh ohh ohhhhh" Pennywise shit soon.

Old note

Check out this old thank you note from “Dave” who used to work at Capita. Probably 8 years old.I stopped by the office yesterday and got a Black Death 162 to take to Baldface. I will repair the old one and give it back.

Gorio

This Monkeys gone to Heaven

Footy from the Wiener.

Orlando Mediocrity

"My times worth more than this show."

"Let's document this mediocrity."

"If your belt is above your belly button...unacceptable."

"Jager?"

Security

I'm done

...ever wearing a helmet. Fuck it, shit looks and feels wack as fuck. I tried. At least I'll die not feeling like a queer.

Tony Orlando and Dawn

At the Camex tradeshow in FLA. Booth went up in 2 hours today. Our 10X20 is a worldclass set up compared to the shit show's around us. May need a little sauce in the system to numb the senses with what will be roaming the halls tomorrow.

Ordildo

Left SeaTown this morning at 8, arrived in Orlando at 6PM. Long fucking day in the air. Open up the phone and ole Brad Bradley has a text to me saying he's 3 mile away from the airport and would I like a ride to the hotel? Shit yea. RV of love, filled with Aviator beers? Thank you Brad and HELLO Orlando.

Thanks Corey...the alive one.

"Yo buddy, nice job on the Workflow thingy on Snowboarder!"
Corey Smith

Not bad

Cause of death unknown

"I was working on Lost Boys when I smoked my first joint. I did cocaine for about a year and a half, then it led to crack. I started on the downers which were a hell of a lot better than the uppers because I was a nervous wreck. But one led to two, two led to four, four led to eight, until at the end it was about 85 a day." Corey Haim
Hmmmm I wonder how he died?

Waterfall, Juniors & Junx

"Ha ha Dad, I got the big 3 pack of jumps down before YOU!" 9 year old Milo to 43 year old Dad.

Lil Buddy

Austin Hironaka's lil bro, Jacob getting ill.

Happy Couple

Dirty Sabs

The Dirty Dooze and T-Sabs arrive tonight for our annual Steamboat re-union. Looking forward to a good time at my expense.

Korn and Grips are coming later in the month.

A little early for this

But this is some Andy Mac / Tony Hawk mixed doubles X-Gaymes co-ordination type shit.

Bald-dildo

No go for me this year, but at least Brad and Gums are up there getting some. I guess their cat consists of a bunch of Billabong dudes, Jerry Lopez and T-Rice. Wierd. I'm slightly jealous. Good story from WEBFRIEND that had the same guide we had last year. Damn.

Jerry Lopez 61 yr. old and shredding. Are you kidding me!!!!!

Yeeeeeee,
Eenz & Gumby

Lots of good shiz

...not to be confused with good jizz, but anyway. UFC Matt's got a ton of goods up on the C3-Shop these days. 20% - 30% off for the most part and if your crafty and find one of the coupon codes from "shay", "danger", "TJReALMS" or even "tackled" you'll pull even a better deal. Get it while gettins good.

P.O.V.

Good one here from our Japanese friend Tatsu.

U.S. GOpen

Ingrid

THANK YOU SO MUCH! I can't believe all of the awesome stuff you Coal is making, what a treat to receive all of that beautiful clothing. I especially love the arm warmers, and the thick pink and grey heathered beanie, but everything you sent is really cool. Please let me know if there's ever anything I can do to help you out--hope you're getting some pow at Stevens this weekend! Take care and thanks again, Ingrid

Charlie Slasher Give A Way

Charlie Slasher Give A Way and Cheap Session Lager Friday Night @ the Whistling Post in good ole Skykomish. Spread the word!

Happy B-day Gums

Hard to believe that a mere 25 years ago Gums filmed this when he was on the Oh-Limp-Dick ski team with Suzy Chaffee. These days he's making turns on the Party Shark with Brad at Baldface instead. I bet he misses Suzy. Happy Birthday Gums.

Washington needs a halfpipe
