Olympic training season!

Contests, Awards and accolades aside, Shaun White still has plenty to win.

We’ve slaved away all year in an attempt to entertain you by writing ridiculous things about snowboarding each and every day,. Some days it’s gone better than others, but either way, it’s now almost 2011 and we need a damn break. For that reason, it’s Rerun Week! The week we don’t waste our time creating [...]

Nothing like standing around in full outerwear, in July, under the sun, for what seems like eternity… From mid-June to sometime in August the lift line at Hood is on standstill in the early morning. But for once, waiting in line isn’t a total annoyance, it’s an experience. Luckily, for those of you too lazy [...]

Todd Richards is known to dish out a lot of shit, so Yobeat has decided to let Louie Vito test Todd’s “taking it” abilities. Louie’s come under fire plenty this year, and happens to be one of Todd’s favorite people to pick on, so we feel it’s his time to dish. So while Louie’s getting [...]

While we send our best wishes to Kevin no real snowboarder will say, “Oh shit, we better ban that damn double twisty.” Most people aren’t real snowboarders though, including the claimed “expert” Christine [...]

While many snowboarders will disagree in order to stay cool, a little competition in life is healthy, if not fun. Whether you’re competing against yourself, battling a friend at Mario Kart, or trying to have the most totally wick dope set up, we all compete here and there. Now when you’re Todd Richards, competition is [...]

We’ve always had a soft spot for Ross Powers. Who doesn’t love a good old Vermont boy who can hold his liquor and win Olympic medals!? Well, Ross is back on the hunt for gold, this time in SBX. He’s scored himself a spot on the US Snowboard SBX B team, has a facebook fan [...]

Hannah Teter Superstar: US Women Claim HP Gold and Silver Monday, February 13, 2006 Though the buzz surrounding another US men’s halfpipe sweep remained steady until the very final moments of yesterday’s competition, predictions of total domination by the US women have been at a loud, steady and seemingly unstoppable rumble all winter.
