YoBeat: Making Fun of Snowboarding Since 1997

SIA Denver tried to party. It didn’t work out. One night we were given a treat though. Wu Tang showed up and did some rapping. Russell Winfield showed up too. If you don’t know who he is, you’re not worthy. I mean we did give him top honors in our black snowboarders poll and all. [...]

Day two of Denver SIA 2010 was as uneventful as the first. Once again a sea of random products flooded the showroom floor, no one came and the world of ski fashion gave Yobeat the boot. However, there was a first ever blog summit, we did explore the darkest corners of the show and Yobeat [...]

With the conclusion of 2009 and the first decade of the 21st century just days away Yobeat.com has decided to dedicate this week to the best of 2009. To start this week of wonder we bring you our first, our only, 2009 “You Choose” Awards Poll. Below are various polls to click n’ pick from [...]

Guess what! It’s the Holidays, or as more commonly known around these parts: The time of year you can just recap and not come up with anything new year end review time! And what better way to look back in this new media age than to take advantage of Google Analytics and data pull some [...]

We still don’t really care that much, but it’s good to see someone is paying attention. No flowery press release about how excited Ashbury is to welcome teenage sensation Jed Anderson to the team and what sort of amazing partnership this will be. Just a video. Check it.

This isn’t news at all, and it will soon be on every snowboard website (if it isn’t already.) But we like the team that Kr3w (perhaps with a little help from a certain SoCal sunglass manufacturer?) has assembled, and this video was fun to watch. Plus, maybe this time the anonymous comment battle will be [...]

The Salomon team is on tour. When Java Fernandez is in charge, things can get ugly (or beautiful, depending on your perspective.) Louif Paradis, Jed Anderson, Bode Merrill, Scotty Arnold, Harrison Gordon, Chris Grenier, and Chris Carr, in an RV.

Always make sure your kit is looking fresh, you never know where the cameras are.   p. Lyndsey Theriot
The Backyard Bang Rail Jam has hit the road, and the mile-high city was the destination. The Denver snow scene was treated to a circus of Salomon activity. The team was in there — signing autographs, making fun [...]

Jon Kooley, Jordan Mendenhall, Nima Jalali, Will Tuddenham, Jake Olson-Elm, Nick Dirks, and Jed Anderson join KR3W and are ready to take down the streets, mountains, woods, and everything else along the way.. Now that’s our kind of press release.

Remember Yobeat’s summer celebrity Will Bateman? He was the young man fortunate enough to snap his collar bone into a million pieces, have emergency surgery, spend 48 hours in the hospital, and have the entire ordeal filmed by Yobeat. If not maybe you’d remember his Hump Day? Well whatever, either way good old Will, now semi-healthy, has [...]

Breakin’ and boardin’ with Jed Anderson and friends.

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 [...]

YoBeat masters rails

Which makes less sense? Snowboarding on manmade snow in front of the stadium or throwing a ball around inside the stadium?

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

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”.
