The Spokesman

The inaugural off-snow portion of SIA Denver is done. Here are the rest of the pictures we took if you haven’t gotten enough yet. Products from Airblaster, Yes, MNMNT, Smokin Snowboards, Bonfire, Grenade, Drop and more and a bunch of goofy pictures of goofy people.

High Cascade superstar and all around great old man Preston Strout is an incredibly busy, but funny human being. He’s been kind enough to offer his unique brand of humor in the form of a weekly column about old age and other random stuff, 30s Thursday. One of Preston’s early efforts entitled, “Skiing and Snowboarding [...]

The Airblaster gear provided is the same stuff used in Party Time Nate’s product reviews. We promise it has been sufficiently disinfected. One entry per person, please.

So I will start out by saying that I am completely biased when it comes to Airblaster. Brooke says that’s cool and that makes me pleased as punch. I’ve been digging AB since day one, or maybe two, but those cats know how to have a good time and do their best to [...]

When I strolled up to the brick building on 12th and Division (that was once a Ford manufacturing plant in the 1930’s) I imagined rows of neatly dressed midgets at machines sewing leg-bags and watching snowboard movies.  I pictured Travis Parker running around doing that thing where you make fart noises come out your armpits, [...]

An 18 year-old roaming the country with a mustache and snowboard. Sounds romantic? Sounds like Will Bateman. Will’s life is unfolding like a classic story book. Young kid leaves home to pursue his passion and along the way a series of dramatic events, great friendships, and amazing sights unfold around [...]

We’ve been accused of “being in bed with Airblaster,” however we assure you we are not. But they are a brand that likes to do fun things such as having photo contests encouraging people to actually grab their snowboards, and we do support that. Here are all the details on the second annual “Great Grab [...]

Money man, Jed Anderson…
Jed Anderson is a menace to anyone trying to pay rent by snowboarding. He wins every contest he enters, films more interesting video parts than all his peers, and hasn’t even turned 18 yet. Basically that means he is amazing at what he does, and his part in Transworld’s sophomore project [...]

Behind Forrest’s Glacial Ride to Glory

Keep driving those Hummers!

Raising money for charity, making people happy, giving away beer. It’s all in a nights work.

Austin Will of Nemo Design and Airblaster fame went out to the Colorado premiere of August. Kids went nuts, people went nuts, it was a big event people. Check the video and enjoy.

“August feels like a good time kicked you in the face.”

Ladies and Gentleman Alex Mertz of Nemo Design fame has put together a little video for everyone. Nemo tends to have art shows, this is a little flick about one of them, and if you keep your eyes peeled you will see many an airblaster wandering about.
Alex had this to say, “On 9/5 StudioNemo was [...]

Check out the Airblaster sneak peek, it is leaked footage from the whole movie. Super advanced stuff. Austin Will of Nemo Design put this together, and I think it looks like a freaking great time. So Enjoy the magic that is “August”.

Jesse Burtner doesn’t care what you think, and that’s why we love him.
