The First Ever Quadruple Backflip On skis done by Steve Corbett, April 13th 1975, declined by guinness world record book due to the danger of the stunt. The quality and colors are faded due to the fact it was shot in 1975 and the film sat in a box for 30 years.

Wanna see why this Chilean chap is so jazzed about his run? You would be too if you hopped off the lift and dropped into a meaty line like this, especially if you were a North American gringo and it was happening sometime around the end of July.

Smooth Pavement is one of the best summer drugs out there. The only thing is that it's way too easy to take too much of it. Drop into the wrong hill on your skateboard and you find yourself unable to stop without completley mangling yourself.These Freebord chaps though, they've come up with a design that allows them to scrub speed in critical situations. Naysayers will probably have a field day...

This season pretty much sucked for most of us in the States. With the lowest snowfall in recent memory, good days this year were few and far between. I can count on one hand the number of pow days I skied. I can count on several more hands the number of times I said to myself, "I hope there are no rocks under there." Yet I still managed to have fun on low snow pack and variable conditions. This...

Last weekend a crew of 5 headed up a very extreme 4x4 road into the Ptolemy Valley in the Crowsnest pass for some ski touring and caving. We accomplished 2 of my 4 objectives, explore Cleft cave, and have a great time with friends. I am definately keen to go back for the other 2, Explore Gargantua cave, still burried by snow, and summit Mt Ptolemy.

Chris Brazeau skied the first descent of the north face of Mt. Bryce in the Canadian Rockies on Saturday May 12, 2012. His successful solo mission, on this coveted unskied line, has got to be one of the most significant achievements in Rockies steep skiing in quite some time. Tim Grey interview.

Original plan was to ski the north face of andromeda,but there was a sheet of ice right near the top. we looked at skyladder and its exposed ice and thought maybe we could get around it. we decided against climbing over it and dropped in from 60% the way up....we got to ski the steepest part anyways!

The second episode of this wicked little series has completely shattered the expectations set by the first one. Mindblowing, really. The brothers Jackson, Travis Rice and Big wave hellman Ian Walsh set themselves loose on Alaskan perfection. Hyped to see more of these episodes!

So why should we, as mountain folk, give a shit about what a rapper from LA has to say? Because the guy knows a thing or two about pushing past the bullshit and getting shit done. There's not a skier or snowboarder in the world who could listen to this and not relate. Sometimes the wisest words come from unlikely places....

The Broner – The Broner is described by absolutely no dictionary whatsoever as “the unfortunate occurrence whereby an individual is inadvertently aroused by the sight of his ‘bro’”.Last Sunday, The Volympics went down at a semi-secret location in Whistler thereabouts. In spite of being on the business end of a weekend-spanning drunk, I thought it wise to attend. Six pack in hand, I...
