    "Few Words" and Tanner Hall

    It's hard not to think of Tanner when you watch "Few Words" and see how Candide came back after his injury from Big Bertha 2. He quit competing in the park and pipe and switched to big mountain comps, (where the expectations were low) and focused the rest of his energy on filming in the...

    First time dubs from B-Dog??

    Tommy E posted about it on Facebook. Anyone got the details? Sounds like a legendary session went down...

    Tanner Hall update? (Like a Lion spoiler alert)

    I just watched Like a Lion, and I'm wondering if anyone knows how T Hall is doing these days, in terms of pills and alcohol. He's responsible for his own actions, but that shit is tragic. I hope he holds it together and comes back hard. Sick documentary--Iberg is the man.

    Forget Mik D. Remember Eric Pollard

    What's with all the Mik D worship? Sure, he had his moment. But he's getting more credit than he deserves. Eric Pollard brought WAY more to the table. He pretty much introduced unnatural spins and grinds. He was the first to do zero spins, and arguably the first to land switch in powder (his...

    Spinning upright

    Spriggs' spins in the 'MURDA' edit were interesting. After seeing so many double cork 12s, it's refreshing to see it done corkless. Same goes for Leigh Powis' 12 in the EDIAS extras. Sounds like Sammy did some big upright spins at the Snowboarder Superpark as well. Reminds me of CR getting...

    Double cork 16 vs. sw triple rodeo 12

    Both were sublime. But TJ's trick was more technical, maybe harder to replicate (I can't even replicate it in my mind)--you'll probably see another sw triple rodeo before a double cork 16.

    The Chad's Gap of rails

    Is there something comparable? A huge, high-consequence rail that skiers return to every few years to up the ante?

    Dumont suicide watch

    I hope he doesn't try something crazy and wind up crippled. Seriously.

    John Symms still funny

    From his ESPN post on the Snow Basin Dew Tour: "In the interest of expanding their credibility as authorities on winter action sports, the producers of the Winter Dew Tour nominated Andreas Håtveit for the award of Ball Park Rookie Of The Year."

    Why PK really got screwed this year

    Remember when Tanner had a leg up on everyone with his sw rodeo 7? He swept all of the major comps that year. This year should have been like that for PK with his back-to-back double cork 12s.

    A legend speaks . . .

    who could this quote be about? ‘"Gangster’ style seems to be a nuisance. Look at surfing, guys are focused on the sport itself, not on looking and sounding like complete goofs. And really, gangster style has gotten pretty old since it started with JP Walker. Aren’t kids more creative than...

    Tanner found his voice

    Everything he says now is right on . . . Powder video awards, SIA, NS interview. He used to try too hard. Now he seems comfortable with his rasta-hippie, backcountry image. I like Tanner 2.0.

    Dumont's two 12s

    Powder online has an article saying he could beat Tanner because he has two 12s in his run. He can't possibly have two different 12s, right? Is he just swapping out the 9 from last year with a second 12? If so, lame. Also, what's Jon's hiding about Dumont's pipe run? He doesn't want to talk...

    IDEA-new era of ski video intros

    That intro raised the bar. Now you can't just string together some pretty scenery shots. You've got to tell a story with them, or do something more purposeful. Not only were those shots beautiful, but they told the story of the lead-up to the 06/07 winter, and created all of the anticipation you...

    Dub Cork 10 at WSI?

    Whose the guy in the green jacket and black pants who almost lands a double cork 10 at WSI? He's in the video on the main page. That was sick!

    BAN THE N BOMB

    it's time to crack down on people who throw around the n-word. the moderators delete threads for far less significant reasons. you are condoning racism if you ban people for having aliases, but you don't ban people for the kind of overt racism that is tolerated only in the darkest corners of the...

    Should Jon listen to Tanner?

    Tanner aka CCREWSOLDIER said that Jon should spend more time filming in the backcountry and trying to ski lines, implying that he spent too much time building jumps and learning double flips. I think Jon has spent his time well--the JOI makes a huge contribution to skiing. I'd rather see park...
