Countdown to Colorado

Kody, Sara and I are headed west on the 19th. Destination? Aspen Snowmass, where the beer flows like wine. It’s been 2 years since I’ve been there – my first experience riding on the west coast. It blew my mind and I can’t WAIT to go back! I’ll be bringing my 145 GNU B-street BTX [...]

halley’s rapid play: snowmaking tour

Introducing Maple Blondie – the new, signature flavor of Hannah Teter. Now, I figure… Hannah [...]

Mt. Bachelor Opening Day Video

This video is out of control. Sure, it doesn’t hurt to have a mountain covered in powder to shoot, but everything about it is sick – skiing and snowboarding, RIDICULOUS back country riding, natural jibs, man-made jibs, powder slashes, cliff drops, some commentary, decent background track… Plus, it’s the perfect length.
