Pushing for Perfection

Hey Jibbers and Jumpers,
The past couple of weeks in The Parks have been really exciting times for everyone. We've seen lots of sun and snow. Our Parks are now pretty much built to capacity, giving our teams the opportunity to really pimp out our features. We've been switching rails and jumps in and out to keep things fresh. Both mountains are changing daily. The Showcase Showdown this year was a huge success. Big shout out to Brad Broughton from the shop, and his team of volunteers for their help with design and building. The Atomic Supercross is this weekend; results to come.

On Blackcomb
- The Snowcross track has a new line this year that everyone should check it out. The course is open daily.
- The Highest Level, and Choker lines are riding perfectly every day, the lines are dialed right in nicely. The Highest Level is rounded out at the bottom by a massive re-entry platform with an Up-Rail to Wallride. The Choker line finishes with an awesome Quarter Pipe that is Zaugged daily.

On Whistler
- The Bobcat line (right side of the park) has been filled out with an A-frame rail combo, a couple more jumps, and tweaks to the other jibs.
- The Chipmunk line is fully built out as well, with a couple new jumps, and changes to the jib lines Park Events
- The next King of the Rail comp is going to be March 21st. This is event is the last KOR of the season, and may even be moved to the base of Whistler (next to the GLC) this time. So make sure you register
- The following day (March 22nd), will be the Park Rider Series Slopestyle, on Whistler Mountain. The course will be on Whistler's Bobcat line (right side of park). All levels of riders and skiers are welcome so come on up, and ride in this fun event

See you all up here!
- James Sayers

Snowboard.com News: Wanna be on TV?
By: Snowboard.com


 
Have you ever partied at the GLC all night in your ski boots and still got first chair?  Are you willing to work for lift operator wages but travel like a rock star?  Do you shred the pow and rip the trails?  Can you talk out loud?  Ride Guide Productions is looking for a new microphone holder.  We are looking for a candidate that has the ability to regurgitate lines while presenting physical assets into a camera.  If you have the ability to memorize a handful of lines, look good in free swag, know what’s going on in the industry and who’s doing what and not waste our time, then send us your bio and photos to info@rideguide.ca.  If you make the first cut you will need to send a video reel to the office on DVD or Mini DV.

Well, since I'm not gonna make it to the Vancouver showing of the GLC movie, I decided that I would pack 2 nights into 1, and fully went to town.  Drank way too much, and now I'm paying for it.
Go see the movie, and my slideshow, on Monday Oct. 1st at The Buffalo Club in Vancouver.  I'll post the poster whenever Shapiro stops being lazy and sends me the file.

It's funny people in general (yeah generalizing sucks) have a tendency to root for the underdog.  Take the average Hollywood movie, the main character always goes through some hard luck story, you know the kind, his girl leaves him, he gets fired, he's in a coma, he lives in a trailer park. You get the idea, hard times for the main character get sympathy from the viewer and the viewer then roots for the main character to succeed.  Which in almost every movie happens.  Ie the guys gets the girl, he can race his car again, the underdog usually wins. The funny thing is how often does the underdog get his in real life?  I don't have an answer but think about it.  Anyhow, check out the "Looks Aren't Everything Premiere" a small grassroots film (quite underdoggish actually) in Whistler

Hey everyone,
 
The video (Looks Aren't Everything) is almost wrapped up now, everyones part is pretty much done, Pepperdines part was the last to be finished, he got that in before he left overseas. Intro and Credits just being put together here in the last few weeks, and the Video should be lots of fun. Premiere dates will be announced in the next couple weeks as well we are shooting for having it in late September or early October, so keep your calenders open!
 
hope everyone is enjoying their summer...
