Can't believe it

2012-02-02T21:42:00.001-06:00

Last day of January, seriously? I don't believe it.

Extreme cars

Pretty incredible what they'll do with cars to sell them these days.

Took Belle ice skating for her first time. As long as she was standing on her feet everything was good. I'm just glad I remembered how to do it!

Been a week

2012-02-02T21:31:00.003-06:00

Can't believe we had a foot of snow on the ground a week ago. Blah!

Got a day off from all this craziness, back to the grind tomorrow!

Looooong day

2012-01-26T00:22:00.001-06:00

Checked out the Burton line for 2013 and then went to work. Need a nap!

Last Day

2012-01-26T00:21:00.002-06:00

Last day of Boot Camp and I still got to ride for 5 hours before jumping on the plane. Most epic day of riding (outside of the park) I've ever had.

Just gets better

2012-01-26T00:17:00.003-06:00

Started out a little cold this morning but turned into a beautiful bluebird day. Rode the new TM-2 Stevens boots toady, landed a front flip (haven't done one in 7-8 years) right behind Hobush and Beresford, and rode some fresh snow at some point in every run.

Puking Snow

2012-01-26T00:14:00.002-06:00

Finally got to Brighton after some winter shenanigans, and I rode the new 32 Lashed Kooley's. Puking snow ad the rails were getting buried. Tomorrow is gonna be epic!

Packed up

2012-01-20T10:22:00.001-06:00

Heading to Utah for Boot Camp! Hopefully the snow in Chicago waits until after 2 to fall so my plane can get out.

Football fields are small

2012-01-01T20:39:00.002-06:00

Especailly when t come to these guys jumping. Robbie Maddison clears a Football field easily at 378 ft and Levi Lavelle crushes it at 412 ft!

Flippin out

2012-01-01T20:33:00.002-06:00

If this isn't the best play of 2011 I don't know what is. I'd hate to be #58 on the Cardinals, not only was he unable to stop
Jerome from getting into the end zone but he couldn't stop him from doing a full on front flip into the end zone.

2012 Picks #7

2011-11-21T21:21:00.004-06:00

Who: Never Summer

What: Proto CT

Where: www.shredshop.com www.neversummer.com

When: Now Now Now

Why: As if the Evo wasn't sick enough Never summer got Emeril on that deck and kicked it up a notch! Snappier, livelier feel and lighter under foot mean an amazing day on the hill no matter what!

How: For the new 2011/12 Proto CT (Carbonium Twin), we’ve taken the powerful flex of the time tested SL, and blended it with the responsive damping of the Evo to create the ultimate all mountain true twin. This board has the versatility of Never Summers patented Rocker Camber Technology, our new Superlight wood core, graphite impregnated Sintered 5501 base and added a whole new element into the proven Never Summer Carbonium Series of boards. Our new blunted, true twin shape cuts down material on tip and tail for a reduced, more balanced swing weight, while increasing effective edge for on snow stability. The Carbonium Proto CT is the future.

Who:Dakine

What:Bronco Glove

Where: www.shredshop.com www.dakine.com

When: Right Freakin now!

Why: Low profile glove that keeps you roasty toasty and dry as a bone. Plus the dexterity is hard to beat.

How: Gore Tex® waterproof/Breathable insert is second to none. High loft synthetic insulation keeps you warm no matter what. Durable water repellent leather palm moves with your hand not against it. Nylon / Poly with DWR treatment on the shell to help hold out the elements even more. 230g fleece / 400g Pile lining. Nose wipe thumb panels to keep your upper lip snot free.

2012 Picks #5

Who: Thirtytwo

What: Alloy Pant

Where: www.shredshop.com www.thirtytwo.com

When: Now

Why: More bang for your buck hands down. If you're spending good money you expect great pants. With these you can expect excellent pants.

How: Regular fit with STI Engineering, Technical poly three-layer shell, 20,000mm / 20,000g, Zip mesh vents, Fully taped seams, Adjustable waistband, Waterproof zips with reflective welds

Just about right

2011-11-05T21:30:00.002-05:00

I think this holds true for much of the midwest, Michigan was just a great target because they had to make those commercials. Love'n it

2012 Picks #4

2011-11-04T21:07:00.005-05:00

Who: Forum
What: Destroyer Double Dog
Where: www.forumsnowboards.com www.shredshop.com
When: Don't wait any longer they're selling quick
Why: As if this board didn't kill the entire mountain all ready Forum gave it a livelier feel and more snap. From laps in the park to floating through the bark the Double Dog gives you the best of rocker and camber!
How: Double Dog is prepared fresh, this delicious profile comes loaded with two great tastes in one. Camber sections located under each foot deliver power, pop and edge grip for charging fast and going big. Rocker sections between the feet, and in the nose and tail, keep it a forgiving and playful ride. Add to the recipe a core profile with softer sections underneath the feet and poppy sections between the feet and in the nose and tail for all-day park laps. With the Swingers Club tips we precisely shave the tip and tail of the wood core to save weight without sacrificing durability. This makes the board spin faster and float with less effort when the snow beckons. Join the club and swing with us. Booter Boosters in the tips are carbon strands strategically placed from under your foot to the nose and tail provide a direct response withbetter energy return and more boost for takeoffs and flat ollies.

21012 Picks #3

2011-10-31T21:29:00.003-05:00

Who: Forum

What: Shaka

Where: www.shredshop.com www.forumsnowboards.com

When: thats up to you

Why: Ultimate adjustability and all mountain ruling without creating dead spots of flex under you feet.

How: If you have a binding with a standard baseplate it stiffens up the flex of your board 80%-90% under your feet. Good vibes plate and disc system allows the binding to flex with your board instead of against it. The Simmer Down footbeds with gel cushioning in the heel and toe automatically cant allowing for a more comfortable ride. The Flip Flop strap allows for support to flex adjustability.

2012 picks #2

2011-10-29T20:59:00.003-05:00

Who: Thirtytwo

What: TM Two

Where: www.shredshop.com www.thirtytwo.com

When: click the Shred Shop link and order em up right now!

Why: Every year 32 ups the ante in lightness and comfort. All the other companies have been chasing the weight and finally succeeding in matching 32 on the scales. But while they were doing that 32 concentrated more on comfort. As soon as you think the boots cant feel any better, guess again. Try on a new 32 boot from the 2012 line and your feet will thank you. Plus I challenge you to find a radder color way than the Scott Stevens!

How: STI FOAM- Designed in our STI Lab, this foam provides better cushioning than traditional foam materials and dramatically reduces the weight of our boots by eliminating the need for a heavy rubber outsole. ThirtyTwo boots with STI Evolution Foam™ are 15% to 40% lighter than previous seasons and remain the lightest in the industry.

TONGUE TENSION SYSTEM- With increased leverage and reduced friction, our Tongue Tension System works with the 3-D Molded Tongue for easier closure and a more secure fit. For 2011, we continue to offer the Tongue Tension System integrated with Boa™ lacing in the Lock model.

3-D MOLDED TONGUE- Our 3-D Molded Tongues wrap your foot for easier lacing, improved fit and heel hold. This design also gives us the ability to control the stiffness of each model forcustomized flex and improved responsiveness.

DUAL DENSITY INTUITION LINER- By softening the inside and stiffening the outside of the liner you get unsurpassed comfort without compromising the overall flex of the boot.

Some of the best
