Fam member Nicky Keefer (aka Meatboy) dropped this self edit a few days ago, better late then never. It’s refreshing to see this next generation of riders carving out their own distinct styles, Keef has it on lock, enjoy.

I am in Cordova at Points North Heli operations, shooting Seth Wescott. Our filmer is using a 16mm camera, and it is exciting because this is the first time I have skied in front of a film camera, I guess you could say I am a child of the digital age. We are not keen [...][IMG]http://images.newschoolers.com/images/17/00/03/72/31/37231.png[/IMG]

April Fools day is a golden opportunity to have an all-out good time. Poking fun at haters and gapers is what Gaper day is all about. Started back in the day at Breckenridge, it’s a time for hooting and hollering, partying and spring sunshine. I was able to make it out from SLC to partake.

Erica and I went to check out snogressions before I depart from Salt Lake. Kevin Brower, my fellow teammate from 44 Days started snogressions a few months ago and it is in its infancy. The warehouse is huge and there is tons of room for some new stuff. So far it has a huge foam pit [...][IMG]http://images.newschoolers.com/images/17/00/03/54/34/35434.png[/IMG]
Last Thursday, all of us went up to Alta on a cold, stormy day to remember our friend, and skiing legend, CR Johnson. CR left us a year ago on Feb 24, and we wanted to honor his life and his legacy that he's left behind.We met up at Alta Ski Area in the morning to find a storm rolling in. After a few minutes of chatting, everyone headed up the lift. A few laps on the High T, and some back flips down on Westward ho, later, we all gathered at the base of the hill in Goldminer's Daughter to laugh, remember and watch a montage of all of CR's video clips. Some of his segments from MSP, PBP and The BIgger Picture could still close out a modern movie. Our event in Alta ran parallel with an event in Squaw Valley, CA put on by the High Fives Foundation. They had a day of skiing on KT-22, followed by a fundraising dinner for the CR Johnson Foundation. Here are a few photos from our day at Alta: Special thanks to everyone at Alta for helping us get this set up, and everyone who came out for CRJ Day at Alta, Squaw, or any other mountain.
RIP CRJ Andrew Mallett forwarded this to me after a day of skiing in tribute to CR Johnson. Today I was lucky enough to make some turns at Alta, and celebrate a memorial for CR Johnson. CR has forever left a mark on the ski industry and skiers alike. Thanks to 4FRNT and friends, a [...][IMG]http://images.newschoolers.com/images/17/00/03/36/67/33667.jpeg[/IMG]

“This is what we did during a week in Calgary, Alberta. It was my first only-urban trip and I feel like its not gonna be the last.” – Jaime Puigdengoles
I have been in Canada for almost a week now and not every day is perfect for sledding so we have been doing some relaxing and hitting some stuff in the valley. You may remember last year during the Vancouver 2010 olympics there was very little snow as warm weather hit hard. This year there [...][IMG]http://images.newschoolers.com/images/17/00/03/25/85/32585.png[/IMG]
