Two awesome events are going down this weekend:
The Summit at Snoqualmie: Jib This! Jib That! and at Stevens Pass: Open Season Rail Jam.
All 3 events are open to all snowboarders and skiers. Do you have what it takes to compete? Here are the details. Read the rest of this entry »
Is this a Rorschach test or something? Or one of those Magic Eye posters that you can never really see? No, it’s a QR code. That might not be a better explanation, but it is the wave of the future! QR codes are basically barcodes that you scan with your smartphone and they link you to something cool, or perhaps not that cool.
Bonfire’s 10th Annual Pipe to Pipe went down at Windell’s snowboard camp at Mt. Hood!! A couple of us took to the road for a day of summer boarding and to see some EXTREME FUNNESS that is the P2P competition.
Registration was going off and after they hit max capacity on competitors there were still kids lining up to try and get on a wait list! Sounded like a couple kids were bummed, but could it really be that bad? They’re in one of the only places you can shred in the summer in North America AND they are of but a few of the lucky ones to be sitting pipe side to watch THE comp of the summer…. while the rest of you sit from your computer screens taking in as much as you can via the intraweb…but its just not the same!
The competition kicked off with the AM qualifier, followed up by the pro qualifier heat. There was definitely a lot of familiar faces, but a ton of new players on the scene. Here are a couple photos from the competition, and for the full writeup check out the full writeup on Transworld Snowboarding’s site and check out this sweet video of the skate comp!

Check out this mini version of the Banked Slalom that Josh Dirksen puts on down at Mt. Bachelor. A couple of us from evo were lucky enough to join the Salomon crew as we left Portland on the Grease Bus and made our way down to take part in the competition.
