YoBeat: Making Fun of Snowboarding Since 1997

Bobby “Cat Butt” Meeks, Nick “Love Boat” Lipton, Nick “Beavis” Dirks, and Sean “Cowboy” Tedore at last year’s Nemo-ween party.

Slut Day is just around the corner! Not registering? Halloween is just around the corner! Get ready to stuff your face with chocolate, puke it back up, put your foot through a pumpkin or two, and gaze upon the masses of skanked-up ladies! Unfortunately early snowfall distracted many pros from focusing on Slut Day, keeping costume creation to a minimum. Praise the lord though, a few of your favorite board riders, and Halloween junkies, didn’t forget the costuming tradition. Now, for your pleasure, Yobeat’s sneak peak photos of your favorite pros in their 2009 costumes.

Jed Anderson’s official “Cheese Dix” costume might be a little stiff, but the sober-tober champion plans on getting his blood pumping anyhow. A quick note, keep the candy away from this kid, he is capable of blacking out on sugar which always results in endless prank calls and door bell ditching.

Holden owner and fashionista Mike LeBlanc accidentally showed up to Halloween in Christmas attire last year.  Not one to make mistakes twice, Mikey plans on dressing up as the evil leprechaun from the hit movie series Leprechaun this year. I believe the last movie was Leprechaun in Space? Before that it was some ghetto version starring Ice-T. Sorry, back to Mike. If you happen to see Mr. LeBlanc, offer him whiskey, and do not mess with his pot o’ gold.

Nikita supermodel Gabby Maiden sent Yobeat this photo from a Milan studio yesterday. Gabby has a female hard-on for Batman, and figures that a Catwoman costume will attract all of the costume recycling Dark Night bad boys in whatever city she finds herself celebrating.

Ashbury Co-Owner Nima Jalali secretly loves Soulja Boy and will be wearing a tribute costume this year somewhere in the LA area. If you happen to be in the So-Cal wasteland ask him to perform his favorite Soulja Boy song “LOL Smiley Face.” His talent will blow you away.

After the worst week of Louie Vito’s life, when he got the boot from Dancing with the Stars and will no longer be rubbing against the beautiful Chelsie Hightower (on camera at least), Vito is looking forward to a big Halloween night. Vito is struggling to re-assimilate into the snowboarder life after his 15 minutes and consequently will don a very Hollywood costume, the Nacho Libre.

Fice owner and snowboard badass Laura Hadar will keep her high-tops and skinny jeans at home Saturday night, opting to slip into this little diddy instead. Watch out for that pitchfork Salt Lake, Hadar isn’t afraid of a little blood.

In his humblest move in years, Shaun White dropped plans to suit up in the official Shaun White™ 2009 Halloween Costume (complete with red hair, foam snowboard, and latex outerwear) and will be trick or treating in a tomato outfit instead. This news of course is very exclusive, and took a long discussion with Shaun’s manager, who had to phone Shuan’s lawyer, who had to email Jake Burton, who had to ask Shaun’s Mom, who had to meet with Red Bull, who then had to Tweet Shaun to get this info confirmed.  Additionally the tomato outfit was hand crafted by 36 of Japan’s top fashion designers and will be the official theme of a series of Wii games coming out in time for Christmas.

JP Walker, feeling that the world owes him his 15 minutes, will be dressing up as Louie Vito for Halloween. Rumor has it JP will be partying on Hollywood Blvd in hopes of being discovered.  JP could land a spot on Joes vs. Pros or Big Brother: Celebrity Edition, also don’t forget the possibility of  The “Uhhhh” Life with JP Walker. A cocktail with the right executive could make any of these situations reality, good luck JP!

Finally, we have Yobeat’s favorite Associate Loudmouth, Todd Richards. Todd told me earlier this week that he plans on going out as Herpes, or maybe he said “The Clap,” my memory is fuzzy. Either way it sounded both disgusting and amusing. Todd plans to run around Halloween parties as an STD while being closely followed by his wife, who will dress as a tube of medicinal penis lotion. Personally I’m glad I won’t be running into Todd this Halloween because touching him could cripple my  future sex life, and most likely my self esteem as well.
