DAY OF: ORAGE MASTERS WHISTLER, BC

Apr 18th 2010 - 1 comments

The Orage Masters 2010 has came and gone. Once again, Orage hosted an awesome event full of good times, laughs and hangovers. The Surface Dead Heads skied their asses off and despite some shady judging (sorry, someone had to say it) were unable to move onto to the next round. Our team this year consisted of Banks Gilberti, John Ware, Jeff Kiesel and Dania Assaly... all of whom, couldn't have skied better. Big ups to Orage for hosting the athletes, Ian Matteson for the photo updates and Evan Heath for manning the video camera. Can't wait to see some footage of the chaos otherwise known as the Orage Masters. Until next year.

After a two-week storm cycle that blanketed Mt. Hood with several feet of snow (a much-needed supplement for the upcoming summer season), the parks at Timberline have been dug out and are riding better than ever. Come check us out, and don't forget that a spring pass costs only $99 and keeps you riding until MAY 31!!! [IMG]http://www.stone-snow.com/zenphoto/zp-core/i.php?a=april-2010&i=4-14tline-jt.jpg[/IMG]

Working hard in the deep Whistler terrain

Riley Leboe here (www.rileyleboe.com) Cold Rush wrapped up last week and it was an amazing event. Snow conditions, weather, and stability all worked in our favour. I had a great week, stayed on my feet, and ended up 4th overall. I was pretty stoked, wish I would have skied a bit better, but that?s the way it goes sometime. I?ll be on that podium next year... After Cold Rush I went straight to Whistler. It?s been snowing like crazy, we must have gotten like 4 feet in the past week here. So conditions have kicked ass. Been skiing lines, hitting cliffs, step downs and jumps all over the place. I?ve been shredding with Charley Ager, Brandon Kelly, Mike Henitiuk, Bene Mayr and Josh Stack. Behind the lens for PBP is Jeff Thomas and Pete Alport and we?ve been getting some bangers! Pretty stoked. Anways, here?s some shots from this past week. Bene and Chuck had a sick session on this huge poppy road gap. They were throwing down. Everything from massive flat 3?s to 720 pillow bonk 180?s. Pretty pimp day, I went to shred some pillows in the trees but unfortunately the snow got a bit to heavy to make it look epic. So, I shredded the lines on my sled and it was some of my best sled turns I?ve ever had! Jeff Thomas here.... The boys have been working hard playing in the deep late winter conditions up here in Whistler. We are currently on a down day waiting for some more sun but watching it snow once again. Yesterday saw us build our 3rd large step down this week, unfortunately, late fog only allowed us to build a fire and chat. Anyways, the first one rendered a perfect switch misty 9 blunt, and a massive 1080, the 2nd saw some switch 9s, switch cork 5s, and some of the biggest switch 7s I have ever shot from both Charley and Riley. Pete and I have been floored by the amount of stuff we have been able to get done with zero days of planned sun in the last week. Each athlete has seen their hard work pay off with lines, pow, pillows & big jumps all going down. I am excited to see what happens on step down number 3 of the week....its a big poppy one!

The Meat, Head Far East

Apr 5th 2010 - 1 comments

The idea had been floating around the Meathead Films offices for several years now. How about bringing back travel segments to our movies to places outside the East? Our earliest movies featured destinations like Utah and Whistler, but we knew that doing it now, it would have to be to someplace special.[IMG]http://images.newschoolers.com/images/17/00/00/67/30/6730.jpeg[/IMG]
