Our friend James was nice enough to take us away from the bustling city life for some R&R in China’s country side. Yacht club or Sistine chapel? “You dumb bastard! That’s not a schooner, it’s a sailboat!” Mallrats, for those of … Continued[IMG]http://images.newschoolers.com/images/17/00/48/53/34/485334.jpeg[/IMG]

Session 1 was taken over by Poor Boyz Productions with the intent of producing a couple of their Postcard edits and the crew did not disappoint. Even with some adverse conditions the first few days of camp, they managed to get a ridiculous amount of footage in both Windells snow and skate parks. Banks Gilberti’s [...][IMG]http://images.newschoolers.com/images/17/00/48/50/56/485056.jpeg[/IMG]

Pre-Glacier Stoke!

Hey there!   Just checking in from beautiful Vancouver, BC! Here I've been enjoying a little sun and staying active in preparation for the glacier season to begin shortly up in Whistler, where I'll be coaching up at the Camp of Champions! Super stoked to get skiing again, as it's all I've been thinking about since the season came to a close a few weeks ago, although it feels like it's been ages. As much fun as it is to enjoy other sports, wear shorts, and Instagram pictures of sunsets, I for one would much rather be making turns on snow.

Windells Camp was happy to welcome the Park family to the opening session of summer 2012. We had Ray, or “Super Dad”, Kristin, 9, and Ryder, who swore up and down he was 100 but, for some reason, we weren’t buying it. He later clarified with five fingers and a “this many”. Initially, Ray had [...][IMG]http://images.newschoolers.com/images/17/00/48/44/38/484438.jpeg[/IMG]

That’s a lot of park. Summer just started and it’s already going by really fast. Session 1 is a wrap, and while the weather was a little bit more wintery than summery, we rode every day, learned new tricks, and had an awesome time! One of the best parts of the week?

Norwegian Amplid ripper Bendik Oye has been a great source of banger edits for the Amplid blog this season so we were stoked when his season showcase arrived in the HQ inbox. Solid rail tricks, more footage of ‘that’ slide ride and stompy switch landings mixed with a good helping of big rotations and doubles [...]

If Amplid made skateboards, they’d look amazing!
