Meet: Animal Farm Design

This week in the hot seat we have Utah-based Animal Farm Design. Funny story, I originally tried to get Sean Lucey to answer these questions, but on a trip to High Cascade to learned Lucey is a slacker, but met Mark Dangler who seemed like he had a bit more gumption. Wow, that wasn't really funny, was it? Anyway, here's more the story on Animal Farm from Mark. Location: Salt Lake City, Utah Government Camp, Oregon Riders: Ben Farrell, Torrey Lyons, Matty Mo, Noah Hausknecht, Josh Poehlein, Parker Duke, Ted Borland, Brandon Hammid I don’t know everyone who we ride with… Filmer/Editor: Mark Dangler, Sean Lucey First and foremost, what's…

Rain Day Survival Guide

If the past few weeks of “summer” are any indication, there’s a good chance that your Hood trip this year is gonna get rained on. Windells session one had a banner two days of sun, and with High Cascade starting up, it doesn’t feel like things are getting better anytime soon. But don’t worry, there have been “rain days” since the inception of summer snowboarding, and even though you came here to work on your double corks and goggle tan, you’ll survive. Here are a just a few of the tried and true ways to ward off boredom on rainy days. 1. Go snowboarding anyway. Yes, you may want to…

Hump Day Finds Kyle Clancy

Kyle Clancy lives outside the snowboard industry's box. Here's a rider that bailed on Mack Dawg's program to film on his own terms with Grenade until he took matters completely into his own hands and filmed "Who Cares" under his own production company, Mongo Pro. Here's a rider that won Red Bull's Heavy Metal rail contest among the world's best jibbers and then never hit another street rail again. Here's a rider that's done what he needs to do to make sure he can shred as much as possible in any given season on his own terms. He's been called a lot of things: "The next Jason Ford." "The expensive…

Meet: bHappy Films

For these crew profiles, we've mainly been talking to the main filmer/editor guy, since they're the ones who hypothetically make the movie part happen. But this week, we interviewed bHappy, a crew all about love and togetherness, and it just didn't seem right to only interview Paul Heran about the crew. So to help you get to know bHappy Films, Colton Morgan, Sammy Spiteri and Durell Williams chimed in too. Location: Tahoe, SLC. Riders: Colton Morgan, Sammy Spiteri, Durell Williams, Cole Atencio, Ben Strause, Shane Wright, Dylan Thompson, Ian Bigley, Casey Detweiler, Zander Blackmon, Sean Anderson Filmers: Paul Heran, Bryce Hymans, Sammy Spiteri, Ben Strause, Durell Williams, Tim Bradley, Rob…

Meet: Ice Coast Kills Shit

Location: New York State. From NYC to the North Country Riders: John the Third, Mark Blondie, Buddy Pendergrass, Toothy, Little Brudder, Triscuit, Erich Fonz, Jeffree, Kahn, VInsanity, Anderton, B Rad and many other homies. Filmer/editor: Callaghan Why the name Ice Coast Kills Shit? Is your mom offended by the swear word? The name is about being proud of where you're from regardless of how wack everyone else thinks it is. You also need a name that'll catch some attention when you're a crew of unknowns. We also we wanted a name that anyone from the East would be proud to rep, not just our homies. And lastly you gotta mix…

Meet: Magic Hair Productions

MAGIC HAIR PRODUCTIONS Location: Boulder, CO/ Chicago Riders: Kent Leng, Connor Southard, Cole Linzmeyer, Alex Carver, Colin Ofloy, Tim Lyons, Jordan Emerson and the whole Bang Show crew. Filmer/Editor: John Cywinski http://magichairproductions.com/ This week in the hot seat we have Magic Hair Products. You may recognize the name from when you hated on one of the Magic Monday edits earlier this year, but no internet bullies are going to stop John Cywinski from making Magic Movie. With Midwest roots, the crew's third effort will offer a greater variety of terrain and riders, but with the same down home sensibility. Here's what John had to say about the forthcoming video. What's…

Hump Day Gets Fresh with Nick Visconti

Food fight! Photo: Robbie Sell While many pro snowboarders can be fit in a box, Nick Visconti lives in a world of his own, clearly filled with unicorns and gypsies and the occasional handful of glitter.  Possibly the Internet's biggest snowboarding celebrity (more so than Pete Wast even) and certainly not afraid to be himself, Nick has had people scratching their heads for awhile now. But if you have ever had the pleasure of meeting him, you'll know all that flamboyance and sarcasm is just part of his charm, and while he may not go the biggest or try to one-up the next guy, he's certainly keeping snowboarding interesting. How…

Last Hurrah with Shane Flood

You get more speed when the sun goes away I’ve been bemoaning the end of the season for a few weeks now, mostly because filling a snowboard site with new and interesting posts every day is a lot harder when you’re not actually going snowboarding. I find though, that like the majority of the population, once spring break wraps up it can be hard to motivate to make the trek to the hill. It is with some regret that I admit my local hill, Mt. Hood Meadows, has in fact been open for business up until yesterday. But with my cred on the line, when the e-vite went out from…

Tricia Byrnes Hump Day 2.0

Tricia knows pros! And loves America! Your parents, and maybe even you, probably think snowboarding is a temporary thing. A fun thing to do when you're young, before you grown up and get a real job. When Tricia Byrnes strapped on a snowboard way back when, she thought the same thing. But after 20 plus years, many of them competing regularly, Tricia finds herself as ingrained in snowboarding as ever. She's edited magazines, been at every X Games, represented America as an Olympian and then some. The sport has literally grown up right along with her. Now this is not to say she's old school -- with her own company…

Tim Humpreys Gets Humped

Hard at work. Photo: Brett Butcher A Tim Humphreys interview. Really, it's a Hump Day match made in heaven, what with all the fun ways to play with his name in the title. Then he goes and wins the Eddie "Wall" Ride Invitational event at Mammoth, making him news worthy and boom! There was no better time to interview this Jersey Boy. How closely does your life in the summer resemble MTV's Jersey Shore? 3 letters baby. L.G.T. Laundry. Gym. Tanning. I gotta look fresh. That's all I can say. Are you more of a "Mike" or a "Pauly"? I am The Situation. Which girl would you be most likely…

When Tricia Byrnes strapped on a snowboard way back when, she thought the same thing. But after 20 plus years, many of them competing regularly, Tricia finds herself as ingrained in snowboarding as ever. She's edited magazines, been at every X Games, represented America as an Olympian and then some. The sport has literally grown up right along with her. Now this is not to say she's old school -- with her own company…

Tim Humpreys Gets Humped

Hard at work. Photo: Brett Butcher A Tim Humphreys interview. Really, it's a Hump Day match made in heaven, what with all the fun ways to play with his name in the title. Then he goes and wins the Eddie "Wall" Ride Invitational event at Mammoth, making him news worthy and boom! There was no better time to interview this Jersey Boy. How closely does your life in the summer resemble MTV's Jersey Shore? 3 letters baby. L.G.T. Laundry. Gym. Tanning. I gotta look fresh. That's all I can say. Are you more of a "Mike" or a "Pauly"? I am The Situation. Which girl would you be most likely…

Meet: Animal Farm Design

This week in the hot seat we have Utah-based Animal Farm Design. Funny story, I originally tried to get Sean Lucey to answer these questions, but on a trip to High Cascade to learned Lucey is a slacker, but met Mark Dangler who seemed like he had a bit more gumption. Wow, that wasn't really funny, was it? Anyway, here's more the story on Animal Farm from Mark. Location: Salt Lake City, Utah Government Camp, Oregon Riders: Ben Farrell, Torrey Lyons, Matty Mo, Noah Hausknecht, Josh Poehlein, Parker Duke, Ted Borland, Brandon Hammid I don’t know everyone who we ride with… Filmer/Editor: Mark Dangler, Sean Lucey First and foremost, what's…

Rain Day Survival Guide

If the past few weeks of “summer” are any indication, there’s a good chance that your Hood trip this year is gonna get rained on. Windells session one had a banner two days of sun, and with High Cascade starting up, it doesn’t feel like things are getting better anytime soon. But don’t worry, there have been “rain days” since the inception of summer snowboarding, and even though you came here to work on your double corks and goggle tan, you’ll survive. Here are a just a few of the tried and true ways to ward off boredom on rainy days. 1. Go snowboarding anyway. Yes, you may want to…

Hump Day Finds Kyle Clancy

Kyle Clancy lives outside the snowboard industry's box. Here's a rider that bailed on Mack Dawg's program to film on his own terms with Grenade until he took matters completely into his own hands and filmed "Who Cares" under his own production company, Mongo Pro. Here's a rider that won Red Bull's Heavy Metal rail contest among the world's best jibbers and then never hit another street rail again. Here's a rider that's done what he needs to do to make sure he can shred as much as possible in any given season on his own terms. He's been called a lot of things: "The next Jason Ford." "The expensive…

Meet: bHappy Films

For these crew profiles, we've mainly been talking to the main filmer/editor guy, since they're the ones who hypothetically make the movie part happen. But this week, we interviewed bHappy, a crew all about love and togetherness, and it just didn't seem right to only interview Paul Heran about the crew. So to help you get to know bHappy Films, Colton Morgan, Sammy Spiteri and Durell Williams chimed in too. Location: Tahoe, SLC. Riders: Colton Morgan, Sammy Spiteri, Durell Williams, Cole Atencio, Ben Strause, Shane Wright, Dylan Thompson, Ian Bigley, Casey Detweiler, Zander Blackmon, Sean Anderson Filmers: Paul Heran, Bryce Hymans, Sammy Spiteri, Ben Strause, Durell Williams, Tim Bradley, Rob…

Meet: Ice Coast Kills Shit

Location: New York State. From NYC to the North Country Riders: John the Third, Mark Blondie, Buddy Pendergrass, Toothy, Little Brudder, Triscuit, Erich Fonz, Jeffree, Kahn, VInsanity, Anderton, B Rad and many other homies. Filmer/editor: Callaghan Why the name Ice Coast Kills Shit? Is your mom offended by the swear word? The name is about being proud of where you're from regardless of how wack everyone else thinks it is. You also need a name that'll catch some attention when you're a crew of unknowns. We also we wanted a name that anyone from the East would be proud to rep, not just our homies. And lastly you gotta mix…

Meet: Magic Hair Productions

MAGIC HAIR PRODUCTIONS Location: Boulder, CO/ Chicago Riders: Kent Leng, Connor Southard, Cole Linzmeyer, Alex Carver, Colin Ofloy, Tim Lyons, Jordan Emerson and the whole Bang Show crew. Filmer/Editor: John Cywinski http://magichairproductions.com/ This week in the hot seat we have Magic Hair Products. You may recognize the name from when you hated on one of the Magic Monday edits earlier this year, but no internet bullies are going to stop John Cywinski from making Magic Movie. With Midwest roots, the crew's third effort will offer a greater variety of terrain and riders, but with the same down home sensibility. Here's what John had to say about the forthcoming video. What's…

Hump Day Gets Fresh with Nick Visconti

Food fight! Photo: Robbie Sell While many pro snowboarders can be fit in a box, Nick Visconti lives in a world of his own, clearly filled with unicorns and gypsies and the occasional handful of glitter.  Possibly the Internet's biggest snowboarding celebrity (more so than Pete Wast even) and certainly not afraid to be himself, Nick has had people scratching their heads for awhile now. But if you have ever had the pleasure of meeting him, you'll know all that flamboyance and sarcasm is just part of his charm, and while he may not go the biggest or try to one-up the next guy, he's certainly keeping snowboarding interesting. How…

Last Hurrah with Shane Flood

You get more speed when the sun goes away I’ve been bemoaning the end of the season for a few weeks now, mostly because filling a snowboard site with new and interesting posts every day is a lot harder when you’re not actually going snowboarding. I find though, that like the majority of the population, once spring break wraps up it can be hard to motivate to make the trek to the hill. It is with some regret that I admit my local hill, Mt. Hood Meadows, has in fact been open for business up until yesterday. But with my cred on the line, when the e-vite went out from…

Photo: Robbie Sell While many pro snowboarders can be fit in a box, Nick Visconti lives in a world of his own, clearly filled with unicorns and gypsies and the occasional handful of glitter.  Possibly the Internet's biggest snowboarding celebrity (more so than Pete Wast even) and certainly not afraid to be himself, Nick has had people scratching their heads for awhile now. But if you have ever had the pleasure of meeting him, you'll know all that flamboyance and sarcasm is just part of his charm, and while he may not go the biggest or try to one-up the next guy, he's certainly keeping snowboarding interesting.

Tim Humpreys Gets Humped

Hard at work. Photo: Brett Butcher A Tim Humphreys interview. Really, it's a Hump Day match made in heaven, what with all the fun ways to play with his name in the title. Then he goes and wins the Eddie "Wall" Ride Invitational event at Mammoth, making him news worthy and boom! There was no better time to interview this Jersey Boy. How closely does your life in the summer resemble MTV's Jersey Shore? 3 letters baby. L.G.T. Laundry. Gym. Tanning. I gotta look fresh. That's all I can say. Are you more of a "Mike" or a "Pauly"? I am The Situation. Which girl would you be most likely…
