What's cooler then taking snowboards to the streets?
Taking skateboards to the slopes.
Fucking rad.

Two Awesome Things That Nike Did:
"...In celebration of James Stewart's recent 2009 AMA World Championship, Nike 6.0 commissioned garage punk rockers The Black Lips to record an exclusive cover of the classic Willie Nelson song "Mammas Dont Let Your Babies Grow Up to be Cowboys."
Nike builds perfect scale replica of Burlington's own infamous BHS rail at their brilliant "greatest hits" park at Mt Seymore. Jump to around 37 seconds in to check it out.

The 3 best things I saw in the olympics-
1. Bud Keene, droppin' an f-bomb at what I would believe to be the most widely viewed 2 minute period of television in the entire world within the last 4 years.
2. Kazu's mctwist.
Not that one dummy.
Not that one either actually. Couldn't find a clip of the olympic one so that's as close as I could get. If you saw it you know what I'm talking about.
3.This story:
"Japanese snowboarder Kazuhiro Kokubo has been excluded from the opening cermony of the Vancouver Winter Olympics. The 21 year-old triggered a storm of criticism from the Japanese public when he appeared at Tokyo's Narita Airport sporting dreadlocks and low-slung trousers... It did not help Kokubo's case when he made light of the incident and said the Games were "nothing special" and "just another snowboarding event." Terje would be proud. PS-Dude is still keepin it real.
oh yeah and I guess some ginger won.
Speaking of mixing "athletics" and snowboarding
Snowboard dunk contest
Laptop snowboard. Some things would be better off left as stoned doodles.
The flying tomato himself was on colbert
Snowboarder gets stuck on lift, has to burn cash to stay alive.
pretty much the same thing as buying a lift ticket. Except with buying a lift ticket, you have to burn cash to get on the lift, to keep your soul alive. Shaka bro.

IT'S ON...
-Grenade is ON a boat.
-Louie "Sheckler in training" Vito is ON Dancing with the stars
(with kelly osborn, chuck liddell and sabrina the teenage witch no less)
-This cover of black betty by Nick Cave as featured in the intro of "Baker Has a Deathwish" is ON my list of most awesome song covers of all time.
WARNING- Adderall fueled gibberish ahead. Proceed with caution.
What's truly remarkable about this piece, is the manner in which the sharp percussive clanks, grinds and smacks of the skating and assorted other backround ambiance and voices in the video intermingle so seamlessly with the song, elevating the whole to a level far greater then the sum of its parts. This metaphorical yin and yang, combined with the rapid fire visual assault of incongruous and nonlinear imagery creates an unexpected and brilliant audiovisual synergy. From chaos, comes a strange cohesiveness. A masterful juxtuposition of seemingly unrelated music and imagery if ever there was one. The savage grunting and howling in conjunction with the strange ritualistic and violent outbursts of movement and self expression on behalf of the baker clan, paired with the tribal drumming and chanting of the song conjures thoughts of pre hominid man, performing crazed primitive dances and thrashing around wildly in attempts to earn the favor of savage and brutal ancient gods.
-Somebody needs to put this bear ON a skateboard.
"SNOWMASS, Colo. - A bear that wandered into an in-ground skateboard park and got stuck was rescued when officials lowered a ladder so it could climb out."
I really hope that some local gnardog skate rats rolled up on the scene first, shotgunned a few, ripped a few lines through the bowl while being chased by the bear, then after a few close calls, called it a day and informed the proper authorities. I'm waiting on the footy.

And the hits keep on coming...
East Coast rail monster Lucas Magoon suffered a traumatic head injury while skating, and is currently in "serious, but stable condition" in the ICU at Reno Health Hospital in Reno, Nevada. According to an anonymous comment on Boardistan, "...he is not in a coma he is responding to his neurological tests. Also as of this morning he is off the breathing tube."
Stay up gooner
In other bummer shred news, strong rumors are flying about Eesa closing up shop. Hope everything works out dudes.

Snowboarders on DRUGS!!
Danny Kass and Louie Vito caught up with a "Not Insignificant" amount of reefer in NZ.
Snowboard world recoils in collective horror, disappointment and shame. Oh no wait, snowboard world laughs and packs a bowl.

Hippie Jump Hallelujah, etc...
New Richie Jackson footy from ipath. If you watch one skate thing today, make it be this. Trust me. The closer trick is potentially in the top 5 craziest stunts ever stunted on a skateboard.
For more next level super creative skating, check out the work of: Colin Fiske, Louie Barletta, Chris Haslem, Dave Vey, William Spencer, and Todd Falcon for starters.
RANDOM POST FILLER BONUS STUFF-
-Here we have a police report detailing Shawn White's drunken shenanigans and subsequent charge of second degree criminal tampering at some mountain in CO.
-HERE is a sneak peek of the majority of Burton's 2010 line. Items of note: New "V Rocker" camber system introduced, a private stock R. Crumb artist collab and the uninc series gets dropped for new "Easy Livin" series, designed to integrate seamlessly with the rampant gypster uprising. No word on whether dreamcatcher or feather is included. In other related news, dropped and bitter Uninc riders (DCP, JP Solberg, Romain de Marchi) start "YES" snowboards, get SIA booth with stripper.
And here we have Brad Pitt making fun of Lakai/Girl pro Mike Carroll. Seriously.
Almost as good as when Owen Wilson "showed up" Mike Carroll in Yeah Right.
And here is a shitty viral ad for the shitty new GI joe movie. With skateboarding.

Slo Mo to the MAXXX
Who would have thought that all it takes to make pipe fun to watch is to make it way slower? 1000fps.
The potential this technology carries is staggering. Here is another example of people utilizing this beautiful machine to its fullest potential-
A bunch more slo mo madness here- here
In case anyone forgot their 3d glasses, here is an alternate 2D (Aka "soon to be old school") teaser. The casting looks excellent.
Speaking of gimmickry/retrofuturism, I present to you a snowboard deck that was sent back from the year A693L-D to destroy the reputation of anyone caught paying almost $2000 for one. Meet "The Whip"

Thanks to high quality euro shred blog http://broblog.snowbroader.eu/ for the heads up on this development.Speaking of gimmickry/retrofuturism, I present to you a snowboard deck that was sent back from the year A693L-D to destroy the reputation of anyone caught paying almost $2000 for one. Meet "The Whip"
PS.Goddamn it, I actually really want to ride that thing. This weird fucker not so much-
So lets say you took the your sweet sweet codaboard out for some hotlaps, trying to pick up some futurebabez and you happened catch an edge on a turbo double daffy twister spread 9000 and happened to break your neck and became paralyzed from the waist down. Would you really want to get back on board by bombing around the mountain superman style, head first with no real way to stop short of combining your face and a tree? If you answered yes, have I got an invention for you
surfs up doodz.
But I digress. Back to the subject at hand, novelty filmmaking technologies. I love em. Lets speak a moment on the topic of 3d movies. I am all for the comeback 3d is making in mainstream cinema. Don't let jonas brothers 3d taint your opinion of what could be a revolution in passive entertainment. Tim Burton is all over this shit and has like 3 3d movies coming out including a live action remake of alice in wonderland with Johnny Depp as the mad hatter and Helena Bonham Carter as the red queen. Pass the large mushroom.
