COC News: Camp is only 2 weeks away!
By: CampOfChampions

Well we're officially two weeks away from the start of camp! More of the park crew has started up...

These guys have been slaving away builing new rails and gettting all the rest ready for everyone to session for camp A.

Look at these pretty rails...

Check out this new launch ramp inspired rail creation. It is one of the many "fun jibbby features" that will be all over the park this summer...

Also, you may remember that the Nomis box is coming back, but it's not what you might remember from our photos last summer. Here is a sneak peak at the new Nomis box...

The Nomis crew has been up painting their new box(s?).

Fisherman? Master Rail Builder? Only time will tell...

The pipe and some of the larger features in the park are shaping up and as soon as we have some sunny skies, we'll get some good photos for ya!

It's gonna be a killer summer so make sure you don't miss out!

Snowboard News: CHILD SUPPORT Filming Update May 22nd, 2007
By: NOMISDesign

CHILD SUPPORT" filming update May 22nd 2007  Last week we spent in the bush at camp Child Support. We filmed in the bush all week and people started to go a bit nuts but we got some good stuff of Risto, Sexton, Cartwright and Fredu.

Fredu and Risto then headed back to Finland for a well deserved fishing break. Simon and his brothers went back to Ontario to help dad put a new roof on the house and do some fishing too. Andre caught a fish that looks just like him. Poor Andre always catches the smallest fish.

Sollars and Wimbles are still going for it and Sexton has been getting into shooting photos as well. Sexton recently saw Shrek and turned himself into Shrexton.

Here is the wedge that took a few days to build and Simon is flexing beside it. Half of us are editing and the other half of us are still filming.

Ilari has been tanning and is looking for the woman of his dreams.. and California entrepreneur Chris Edmands is starting his own snowboard sock company called Wack Socks Inc. You can find prototypes of Wack Socks outside of Edmands’ truck every morning.

MGT Snowboard Camp Teams Up with Camp of Champions for Summer 2007

By MGT Snowboard Camp

May 13, 2007

Whistler, BC – MGT Snowboard Camp and Camp of Champions have teamed up again to create the MGT Girls Session in Whistler, BC, Canada. The session is hosted by COC on North America’s largest private summer terrain park! Did you miss last summer’s Numa Numa Dance Party on the NOMIS box? Still pickled that you didn’t make the Get a Haircut Get a Real Shred Job after camp activity? Or the Shred Boys of Summer photo auction? MGT will once again return with more good times all hosted on COC’s progressive terrain.

“The terrain we can access through this relationship is ideal; summer weather and as close to winter conditions and features as you can get,” says MGT coach and camp director Leanne Pelosi. “We’re giving out big bags of rad this summer too, that’ll be the biggest draw.” says camp director Joanna Majcherkiewicz. Rounding out the MGT crew this summer will be Jacqui Berg, Alexis Waite, Dominique Vallee, Robin Van Gyn, Amanda Mourant and other ladies with mean handplants and tail blocks.

The Camp of Champions winter quality summer snow park will be even better than ever this summer with the record breaking snowfall that Whistler experienced. Besides the unique terrain on Blackcomb Glacier that the MGT Girls Session at COC offers campers can also get down in the renown Whistler Bike Park, the skateboard park, go rock climbing, shimmy around on three golf courses, chill at one of many warm lakes or take in the Whistler nightlife.

This will be the fourth year that MGT Snowboard Camp offers a summer snowboard program and fifth year offering winter camps. MGT coaches are professional female snowboarders including celebrity guest coaches and up and coming riders. Some of the current strong regional and national level riders have come up through the program and will be up on the glacier this summer to spread the shred too. Some up-and-comers to keep on your shred radar on include Bev Vuillemier and Raewyn Reid.

To learn more about MGT Girls Session at the Camp of Champions, and to get really really good this summer, please contact Robin Van Gyn at

robin@mgtsnowboardcamp.com or 1 403 830 RIDE (7433). www.mgtsnowboardcamp.com

Snowboard News: CHILD SUPPORT Filming Update May 7, 2007
By: NOMISDesign

The Child Support crew just got back from a great park shoot at Sierra and Squaw Valley. The first week we were down there was nothing but cloudy days and messy hotel rooms. Week two broke with beautiful sunny skies and a lot of jumping. Markku Koski pulled his shoulder out of socket twice and got a concussion but still managed to "Finnish" the park shoot with some really good stuff before going back to Finland. There was a ton of good landed stuff that went down at the park shoots and thanks to Sierra at Tahoe and Squaw valley for all the help and effort with the shoots. On one of the down days Jimmy Halopoff was nice enough to host a barbeque at his house and we skated his ramp. We dared Fredu to hit the rope swing into the 3-foot deep freezing pond beside Jimmy's ramp. Fredu was up for it and did the sketchiest rope swing into water that we ever saw. He was supposed to get 40 bucks for his efforts but Ilari had to spend the money on new pants. We are now back in Whistler doing some spring backcountry for the next month. We ain't stopping yet.

"CHILD SUPPORT" Filming Update April 22nd, 2007

Here we are almost at the end of the season and still a lot more filming to do. Got some great days in the Whistler backcountry last week with Sollors, Simon and Wimbles. Ilari is itching to get out there so he bought himself a brand spanking new sled. (see above)

We are now down in Lake Tahoe filming some park and waiting for the sun. Half of the crew flew down and the other half drove. Risto and Fredu just arrived here last week as well. Fredu drives like a Gramma and Ilari needs to stay off the wake up drinks.

Traveling is really starting to take its toll on some of our riders - especially after eating all that road food. Here is a shot of Joe and Simon getting phat.

"CHILD SUPPORT" filming update April 9th 2007  

Last roadtrip was a lot of fun although we had some injuries on the way. Torsti hurt his ankle pretty bad and is still on recovery.

Fredu rode straight into a rail and bruised his shin. He was walking with canes, but is riding again already.

Risto and Fredu scored some final tricks for their parts. Lapland was beautiful with nice weather. We returned to Helsinki for final days in Serena-ski resort, just riding for fun and having a good time gettin ready for the park tour.

Meanwhile back in the US of A... Simon, Steve Cartwright, and Scotty Vine were all filming at Bear last week. Here are a few photos from their trip.

My Blog: THANK-YOU RADGALZ!!!
By: whole_lotta_long

Just one thing to say.....

Thank-you Radgalz for the bestest most funnest contest ever!!! Sarah you totally have it dialed...even if set up goes a little late into the night. The sense of comradery (is that how you spell it?) that develops is so totally awesome. After riding all year with only boys at Manning it was so much fun to see so many shredin' ladies! Besides Lindseys sick ass 540's and Merium's (also bad spell job) sneaky snake during the boarder cross open finals which earned her the win, there was yoga, the best fashion show ever, and on hill dj Lee, who spun excellent tunes for the slopestyle competition on Saturday.

Prizes where huge and sponsers like Billabong, Burton, Nomis (tenaya you rock), The Renegades, Sessions, Beaver Wax, Chicco's, Island Snow, and tons others i'm probably forgeting, spoiled us ladies rotten.

Just to mention a few other ladies i saw shreddin it up:

Jade and Tess- they are 11 and 14 and pose a serious threat in competitions. Competing in the Open category in Slopestyle and Boardercross these two are head for great, great things.

Rachel (lifty from last year) - Cleaned up in Open and took home a G-twin, sick, oh so sick, I missed her run, but a season in New Zealand did her good, the boys can't stop talking about how well you have been doing this year. I think they have a crush on you...

The Stiles - this is a family shred unit, Mom Janet, Oldest Daughter Kiara (16) and youngest Mika (10) all placed in the contest this year, well done ladies!! I doubt this family ever has to buy new clothes with all the wins they take home in a season.

Much love to everyone who competed...

And then there are the behind the scenes people:

Mo and Kelly: These two make Sarah's every dream come true....from banner placement to registration, these guys do everything that keeps the show running.

So I guess thanks Sarah and Radgalz for the bestest competition ever, i met the nicest people, rode with seriously talented girls and saw beginners fall in love with snowboarding.

By: Garfinkels

We at Garfinkels, partner of SNOWBOARD.COM are excited to announce to the snowboard world that we are sponsoring a Whistler snowboarding Icon, DAVE FORTIN of Gnarcore.

Many believe that Whistler is the mecca of the snowboard world, us at Garfs and Snowboard.com couldn't agree more. Dave and the Gnarcore crew have been ICONS of this town for a long, long time. Since Garfs is truly the scene, the spot, the 'IT' in Whistler it only seemed right that we give back to the snowboarding community that has made us what we are by jumping on board with a Whistler legend.

Dave will be sporting the 'DEVIL' at his upcoming comps and on the hill.

He has been killing it already, winning best trick and 2nd on the slopetyle at Sun Peaks. He will be Grouse this weekend then off to Quebec before the WSSF back home in Whistler!

Snowboard News: Team Dirt Bag in Finland
By: NOMISDesign

Team Dirtbag over in Finland has been killing it this past month. Here are a few photos from Ilari. Joe Sexton just got back from a month long trip over there where he has been riding with Fredu, Risto Ruokola and friend of StepChild Torsti. In between Joe getting all artsy with his new digital camera and living off junkfood he was able to get some bangers for the movie.

Here's Joe's trip story and then some artsy shots from Joe with dead birds and shi*t.

JOE WROTE... 
As soon as I stepped off the plane I was greeted by two of the biggest dirt bags I had ever met, one I had met before and the other I had not. The first was Ilari Suhohen or however you spell it, the Defective filmer and my baby sitter for the trip, the other was named simply "Pops". I think they pronounced it douche bag though. Pops was a digi filmer and was pretty new but did a good job.

  Anyways after gathering all my luggage it was off to check out some spots. We hopped in the booze wagon and we were off, I had no idea what to expect before coming to Finland. I thought it was going to be a cool spot for rails, but when I actually got there it exceeded all my expectations. Just minutes from the airport are all the spots I have dreamed of hitting, every rail seemed perfect, I was quickly told these were "played out" and they were right.

  After that we met up with the rest of the boyz, Fredu Sirvio, Risto Ruokola, and simply Torsti. I won’t bore you with what hammers went down on the trip and when Risto did a benihana worty pickle revert, or when Fredu busted out the switch barracuda roll and at the last second reverted it to fake-eye. And of course you don't want to hear about Torsti’s Swedish chili rainbow and how he brought it back to reggys, yea you probably don’t want to hear about that.

So instead of explaining everything I just made list with all the highlights and low lights of the trip... enjoy. Thanks to Ilari, for letting me stay with him and putting up with me for a month, and all the bros for fun times shredding.

  These were the highlights of my trip highlights of my trip:  

- Meeting three amazing snowboarders Fredu, Risto, Torsti, 2 amazing filmers, Ilari, Pops and making 5 good friends.

  - Making every spot ride-able, whether it was cutting down a post or bending a rail.  

- Using a flamethrower even when we really didn’t need to.

  - Eating so much candy and drinking so much pop, I actually built up a tolerance.

- Not knowing what anything says and asking my Finnish brothers for help 24/7.

  - End of the trip when everyone got sick except Ilari and me.

- Wearing a long sleeve and no gloves in -30 weather.

- Having Chi Guy come visit us for a week, and really getting to know him. Thanks!   

- Having the most fun on my snowboard.  

- Late night coffees and donuts  - Eating McDonalds and Hesburger  .

- Being there for a month and getting kicked off of 2 rail’s the whole time.

By: NOMISDesign

Here are some shots of Simon Chamberlain and Steve Cartwright warming up in Whistler, for the upcoming Stepchild and NOMIS video collaboration CHILD SUPPORT, by Defective Films. You can see by the similar styles they sure appreciate riding together. These are only the highlights from their session, so be sure to check out the video this Fall 07 when the video drops. Also check out Defective Films to see the teaser.

Double butters are hard enough, but doing it with a nine is pretty crazy. Simon’s double butter 900 is a cross between Rodney Mullen, with Mark Appleyard style.

Looks like Simon and Steve are going to fall a sleep on this rail together, hopefully they wake up by the end of it.

Simon popping a nice and mellow nollie front 3 over the garbage can. The carbon fiber stringers in his board help him to pop that hi stepchiiiiiiiiii.

Steve got high enough to clear Shaq if he was jamming a basketball on the lip.
