Powder Stashing..

this could be you in just a matter of a couple to few short weeks.
srsly tho.. just some powder riding a few stashes up at Ski Acres Wa. on opening day, back before the sleds were ruling my powder riding access.

with snow down to snoqualmie pass level this morning this opening seems closer now than it was yesterday :)

not a new video for the old folks, but not a old video for the new folks..
make sense? :)

riders: Mark Roughgarden, Hambone, Josiah, Geoff Peelers, Oneshot.
with some easter egg political bullshit at the end.. sorry bout that.. its old :)

enjoy.

OSP - Totally Bored Part Three - Go Go Machines R Snowmobiles FYI

What started out as a tool to milk some backcountry pow lines with the skiboard has become the powder slayer of choice most days. Bow down to the machines, cause on the few precious pow days of the 2009/2010 season we threw multitudes of gas powered sled turns in the BC. Our boards came along for the ride, but many a day, the play-toy of winters past was nothing but an old companion benched at the new game. At least we're courteous enough to bring them to the party. Oh don't fret, cause there's a gratuitous snowboard shot in here somewhere for our devout snowboard friends, but this one is all about the MACHINES my friends. Not to mention my favorite kinda easter egg. Apparently it was cold that day.

Alpentalics UNITE - I wont be there but hey!

I know this other guys who this week is all about "Blowing Out the SPOT"  i like the theme! lets blow this out! its not a secret and hasn't been for some 15 yrs atleast though.. but lets try.. i never claimed to be original.

trying to keep the stoke alive though. just think. we could be shredding and sledding in less than a month and i know alot of my Bro's and fellow shredders look fwd to riding Alpental WA. every year..

here's a few blurbs i stole off the nets about Alpental.. and myself included.

summit site: Alpental, a legend in its own right for over 40 years, is home to some of the most challenging, adrenaline charged and breathtaking terrain in North America. When you’re ready, Alpental is waiting for you!

wacky yelp commenter: After 20 inches of snow in 24 hours I don't think you could give a mountain anything less then 5 stars.

oneshot: Alpental is rad on a powder day with no one else around, weekdays if you're lucky.. on a weekend? forget it!! get there early if you want a top to bottom powder run.. if you do get there early enough you can manage to get at least one top to bottom powder run. else enjoy the rest of your day standing in the infamous asshole lift line that is chair 2 and enjoy tracked out non powder runs.

Alpental is STEEP and TECHNICAL and totally awesome if you can get lucky on a weekday with no one around.

So, here we have a real short video filmed and edited by Tom Xteam back in 2007.. blowing up some secret alpental stashes that well, aren't so secret anymore.
Starring Garret in most the clips. a local ripper to the Northwest. and an Alpentalic for sure :)

WSSA Snow Show Review 10/17/2010

Last Sunday, I hit the WSSA Snow Show lone wolf style. It was kinda sad this year. First time I've ever gone on Sunday, without any bros, and to top it off, I had no intention of really buying anything. A lot less vendors this year and even less used shit for sale. Weird. Maybe it all got sold Saturday. I did the whole thing in under two hours which is some kinda record for me. I've never spent less than 8 hours at the show.

Talked shop with a lot of people, spent some time with CFR Dave and talked about how his rack is cracking my tunnel and what not. Dropped my yearly donation to SAWS. Fully missed Rasmussen's Backcountry talk by showing up late. Bummer. I got a cool poster for my office though. Picked up Schooled Again DVD, some Summer Sucks gear as I wanted to support North Bend business, and some Water Wetter in an attempt to find a overheating solution for the Nytro this year. Walked out spending just over $50. Some kinda record for me.

Overall it wasn't a waste of my time as I really just wanted to sit on the new Polaris RMK-Pro, lift it up a few times and see how it felt, get the skinny from a rep. Rep generally knows more about it than the shop guy. I'm sold man, that is one mean bitch. Love the slim fit, feels just like a dirt bike. Pennies are getting stashed, but I'm not giving up my morning coffee slut yet. Maybe 2011/12 or the next. See how the Nytro treats me this winter.


PRO RMK in the back, Iron Horse in the front. That should be my garage! ->

Timbersled dudes were cool as always. Love the Timbersled mountain horse, that thing is sick. IF only it wasn't $4k the WR would get that treatment. Maybe I can pick one up used in a few years. Spent some time chatting up my I-90 shop guys and checked out the bolt on Yamaha Turbo. Nice! But spending another $3k on the Nytro just isn't in the books. For $2k more I'm sitting on a new RMK-Pro as far as I'm concerned.

Show's gone downhill every year since I first went really. Maybe that first year it was just all so new to me, I was bustling with snowmobile excitement! Could be I just know how to find better deals on the INTERNET's and I-90 always kicks me down so I'm not so desperate to find a deal anymore..guess I'm not so into the 'window sled shopping' thing. That and a sled show is kind of a lonely place without a couple bro's to share your enthusiasm with.

what do you think about riding handrails?

I came across this clip on the nets and liked it.. Mike Ranquet in some weird webcam interview type thing, laying it down on the topic of Handrails. I think i'm with Mike on this one for sure. what a waste of time and talent

OSP - Totally Bored Part Two (Webisode 2)

Dropping it!

In this webisode we have clips from a few different sessions at Stevens Pass Washington. the stunt jump session went off with Ninja Stuntman Clemmy throwing down some radical stunts a couple yrs back. then on to some late season snow dumps that made for a few super fun days of late season powder riding, much of it not captured on video.. but thats how we roll.. Enjoy...

P. S. If you see some slight vid distortion, let it be known that that camera is one of the many that got retired :)

sheeeesh laaaweeeesh! man i just really hate that word! 'Webisode'

can someone suggest something way more betterer and unique for a video series? i'll fully start using something better once you give me something to use..

ugghhhh webisode..
so in the next webisode we're working on we have a small collection of Stevens Pass footage.. Did you know when stevens pass closes for the season in mid April each yr, they open it up to snowmobiles? well, they do! and its always super fun! sometimes slushy and sunny with fun jump sessions and sometimes we get those fun late season snow dumps..

here was a day we went up where it was just boiler plate icy and hardpack.. we did nothing but donuts all day for fear of breakin our selves on the ice.  vid clip shot by the A-Man.. good work!!!  i laugh everytime i see this

Stay Tuned amigos!

OSP - Totally Bored Part One (Webisode 1)

So, I seriously think the word 'Webisode' is totally lame. but i still like to use it because far as  doing a webisode its purely new to me.
so, here goes with my 1st WEBISODE.

After 2 brutal lack of powder day's seasons we finally gathered up whatever footage our friends and the crew has shot and have started to crank together some video's, all leading up to eventually a full length flick, but releasing in parts. (WEBISODES) that word again..

Plagued with several broken video cameras over these 2 season we have managed to shoot with whatever we could shoot video with. steady digital cameras, craptastic low end vid cameras that lose focus constantly and more. i think you get the point.  needless to say the vid quality really varies in this series, but the fun we have in the mountains never ends. Even when the snow wasn't of the best quality we all got together to spend numerous days in the mountains still enjoying what snow we had to play with.

I'm grateful for having a awesome group of friends and alot of times friends of friends and more to share the mountain time fun with. the fun time on the hills with your Bro's never ends and i always come home smiling after a day riding. no matter what the snow conditions are like.

So, let me ask you this. Would you rather be out playing in the snow with your Bro's regardless of dismal snow conditions? Or would you rather stay home, do nothing and be......   TOTALLY BORED?

TB Intro series starter in fact

well, i put some work in this weekend in wrapping up a little intro segment to tie up to all the parts of this Totally Bored webisode type series i''m working on.. part one to drop in the next few or so..  here in this video here is a intro title scene which was cut already for something more neato.. cuz shit.. I"M BORED!!! the shit in the works is dope i tell ya! but here is a rough draft for now for your sneaky peaky

ragidal mission from the archives

last season we hit up a super secret stash but not really a stash up at Blewitt Pass Wa.  super insane sick lines out there and tons of fresh powder to sink into..
well this little vid popped up on the nets from that day and the folks we were riding with.. only clips of tom and i at the beginning standing around our sleds, and Tom made an appearence in the distance on one of the runs. if u watch close u can see Tom boosting off a pow lip whilst the film is on B-Rad.. hell of a fun day it was!!

Video on Vimeo
check it out.. Blewitt Mission with B-rad and some of the Lib tech folks

a little rough but underway

so, been working sloooooooowly on some new vids. mostly a series of snow flicks with some ok and some not so much footage taken over the last couple winter seasons. its been rough shooting as the winters were not so awesome and the destruction of several cameras went down including one HD fancy shmancy badd ass camera.. that was heart breaking for that owner for sure..

so. the series is properly named "Totally Bored" cuz well, boredom is what has led me to actually trying to make something from nothing. Totally Board was a rad flick from the beginning days of snowboarding.. like a cult classic most of you old schoolers know.. so i thought to mock it and be a funny guy i use Totally Bored.. banger clips are easy to work with but under par clips? not so much. as usual  though and my friends will say "you got a knack for making something out of nothing" so on and on i go with the videO..

if you are reading this here. you get some rough rough rough drafts of a couple shorties in the making.. seriously rough..

Part 1 the swappymans files.. as usual this is how we roll trying to convey the fun and not so much the radical riding.. i noticed just last night when i watched an older Absynthe flick that this song was also used in that flick. however the significance of using this song while using swappys clip collection is that these guys are pals of the swappyman.. so there!

Intro to video series... this is only an idea right now.. pulling in a series intro to drop in front of  each short flick sort of introducing the series.. something like a 30 or 45 second clip of banger clips.. i have yet to add the banger clips and this is purely idea right now.

so, there you have it.. whats in the works? thats whats in the works.. hoping to get some time this weekend to crank out the 1st part and have something to motivate me and the peoples..

thanks for watching...
