The Middle of Nowhere, Washington

Last weekend I took an impromptu trip North to catch the pre-opening day at Stevens Pass, which perhaps even more exciting meant going to Stevens Pass for the first time. Though I've driven past the sign for route 2 at least 100 times, I never made it east on that particular highway. We arrived in Skykomish well after dark, but it was pretty clear this town was awesome, in that, never wanna live here in a million years kinda way. Haunted brothel? Ok! We stayed at the only hotel in town, a classic joint with shared bathrooms and a cafe smelling of deep fryer attached. However, we were told the…

The Snowboard Dating Game!

In one of our more-brilliant recent efforts at doing relevant snowboard content is our latest video (series?) The Snowboard Dating Game. Stan is your host, while Timbro has to select a snowboard based only on information (most of which got cut out to make it short enough for the Internet's attention span.) The rest is made even more awkward with sensual music. Enjoy.

If you hate reading, just go click here or the image above and vote! I've never actually participated in an Internet popularity contest. I've run plenty of them and promoted plenty of them, but this is a first. Me and my writing are up for an award and geez whiz, I really wanna win! Now I am fully aware that this sort of thing is considered SPAM and I've already been told, "I don't do Facebook contest stuff" once. I get it. I watch the local news too about how your social presence can RUIN YOUR LIFE FOREVER. But here's the truth. If you're sitting in front of a computer…

I’m Thankful for Mt. Hood Meadows Opening Day

I have a lot to be thankful for. Somehow, a little website my friend and I started as a joke now more or less pays my bills and gives me a creative outlet to do just about anything I want. I can get any equipment I can imagine, for free, and one of my biggest problems in life is that I want to go to the Burton European Open and the Mt Baker Banked Slalom, but I can't, because they're on the same weekend. But if we're being 100% honest about what I'm really thankful for, it's snowboarding itself, and days like Mt Hood Meadows opening day this year. The…

Thursdays at the Office: The Rejected Episode

Sarah Morrison came to visit a few months ago, and we were reminiscing fondly over time when we used to make content for fun, not just for others' enjoyment. From that came the idea for Thursdays at the Office, the hottest new series on Yobeat. The above episode was the first that we filmed, playing off an actual episode of The Office plot line, and making Sarah and I laugh hysterically. Unfortunately, the target audience of Yobeat not only doesn't pay close enough attention to TV to get the Office reference, but doesn't care about Sarah, or me, or anyone else in the episode. So it's being relegated to here…

How To Get Users Engaged on Facebook

I've really been embracing this social media business lately. I know that's my job and I've been running a website since the dawn of websites, but admittedly, I've only recently embraced the full potential of Facebook. I'm still not convinced it has any sort of staying power in the ever-changing social media landscape, but I have finally been seeing the usefulness -- Not just driving traffic, but also finding joy in posting something that gets "good engagement." So how does one get good engagement on Facebook, you may ask? Between Yobeat, and some freelance work I've been doing, I've finally got it figured out. It's not asking questions. It's not…

The rumors are true. I went to South America. I spent most of the time snowboarding, and you can read lots of words about it here and here. This post though, is just a whole lot of pictures.

I’m Thankful for Mt. Hood Meadows Opening Day

I have a lot to be thankful for. Somehow, a little website my friend and I started as a joke now more or less pays my bills and gives me a creative outlet to do just about anything I want. I can get any equipment I can imagine, for free, and one of my biggest problems in life is that I want to go to the Burton European Open and the Mt Baker Banked Slalom, but I can't, because they're on the same weekend. But if we're being 100% honest about what I'm really thankful for, it's snowboarding itself, and days like Mt Hood Meadows opening day this year. The…

Thursdays at the Office: The Rejected Episode

Sarah Morrison came to visit a few months ago, and we were reminiscing fondly over time when we used to make content for fun, not just for others' enjoyment. From that came the idea for Thursdays at the Office, the hottest new series on Yobeat. The above episode was the first that we filmed, playing off an actual episode of The Office plot line, and making Sarah and I laugh hysterically. Unfortunately, the target audience of Yobeat not only doesn't pay close enough attention to TV to get the Office reference, but doesn't care about Sarah, or me, or anyone else in the episode. So it's being relegated to here…

How To Get Users Engaged on Facebook

I've really been embracing this social media business lately. I know that's my job and I've been running a website since the dawn of websites, but admittedly, I've only recently embraced the full potential of Facebook. I'm still not convinced it has any sort of staying power in the ever-changing social media landscape, but I have finally been seeing the usefulness -- Not just driving traffic, but also finding joy in posting something that gets "good engagement." So how does one get good engagement on Facebook, you may ask? Between Yobeat, and some freelance work I've been doing, I've finally got it figured out. It's not asking questions. It's not…

Sponsor Me!

Thanks to all the people who give me stuff, my parents, my friends for filming and you for watching. But mostly thanks to Rebecca Black. "So awesome. Best sponsor me video I've watched in months." -- Ron Faverty, Marketing Director, Rome SDS "Sadly, I don't think [our] snowboard footage will look like a cute 12-year-old boy." The Editors, Boardistan.com "Looks like your ready for the big show, Think Thank media hour bonus, let's do this." Jesse Burtner, Owner, Think Thank.

Viva Argentina!

The rumors are true. I went to South America. I spent most of the time snowboarding, and you can read lots of words about it here and here. This post though, is just a whole lot of pictures. Some from Cerro Catedral in Bariloche, and most from Buenos Aires, most notably Recoleta Cemetery. [nggallery id=43]

The Middle of Nowhere, Washington

Last weekend I took an impromptu trip North to catch the pre-opening day at Stevens Pass, which perhaps even more exciting meant going to Stevens Pass for the first time. Though I've driven past the sign for route 2 at least 100 times, I never made it east on that particular highway. We arrived in Skykomish well after dark, but it was pretty clear this town was awesome, in that, never wanna live here in a million years kinda way. Haunted brothel? Ok! We stayed at the only hotel in town, a classic joint with shared bathrooms and a cafe smelling of deep fryer attached. However, we were told the…

The Snowboard Dating Game!

In one of our more-brilliant recent efforts at doing relevant snowboard content is our latest video (series?) The Snowboard Dating Game. Stan is your host, while Timbro has to select a snowboard based only on information (most of which got cut out to make it short enough for the Internet's attention span.) The rest is made even more awkward with sensual music. Enjoy.
