The season's have switched here this year; we had spring in the winter and now we're having winter in the spring. Man, it's total global weirding.... We had a gorgeous day on Saturday and all the campers loved the new park design. Sunday was a little soggy but that didn't slow anyone down and everyone really progressed their shred skills over the weekend. Thanks to all the coaches for their hard work and all of our killer sponsors for all the prizes!

Coaches Corner: Senor Brown, Cobra Commander and Captain Hatesalot.

Coach Myles getting all inverted.

Campers getting the bro assisted tow ins.

JumpCamp Exclusive:
Very rare photo of Coach Olaf Larsen skiing in a one piece suit. Even back when he was a two-planker wanker he had some serious style. Look at the outfits in this pick! Hahahaha....... Actually they're not much different than the crazy outfits nowadays.

Hahahahaha........ man.

New JumpCamp whip! Yes folks, it's true. JumpCamp has gotten rid of the hoopty and picked up a nice new truck. Thanks to everyone at Brian McLean Chevrolet in Courtenay for everything. Go in and buy a vehicle and tell them JumpCamp sent you.

My Blog: 9 things i hate about.......
By: DeeLAYLA

1. People who point at their wrist while asking for the time.... I know where my watch is pal, where the hell is yours? Do I point at my crotch when I ask where the toilet is?

2. People who are willing to get off their ass to search the entire room for the tv remote because they refuse to walk to the tv and change the channel manually.

3. When people say "Oh you just want to have your cake and eat it too". Damn right! What good is cake if you can't eat it?

4. When people say "it's always the last place you look". Of course it is. Why the hell would you keep looking after you've found it? Do people do this? Who and where are they? Gonna Kick their asses!

5. When people say while watching a film "did you see that?". No Loser, I paid $12 to come to the cinema and stare at the damn floor.

6. People who ask "Can I ask you a question?".... Didn't really give me a choice there, did ya sunshine?

7. When something is 'new and improved!'. Which is it? If it's new, then there has never been anything before it. If it's an improvement, then there must have been something before it, couldn't be new.

8. When people say "life is short". What the hell?? Life is the longest damn thing anyone ever does!! What can you do that's longer?

9. When you are waiting for the bus and someone asks "Has the bus come yet?" If the bus came would I be standing here, dumbass

My Blog: First Trip of the Season!
By: oxnikiexo

Is it sad today will be the day of my first snowboarding trip this season? I'm sort of disappointed in myself.

My college canceled all classes today and hopefully the same will go for tomorrow. I don't know what mountain we'll be hitting up but I'm stoked as hell.

I was going to go to Okemo over winterbreak but unfortunately I was too drunk to function hahaha.

I hate being a broke college student. Anyway I'm hoping for some battle scars today and to hit some new tricks. Wish me luck! xoxo wtf3

My Blog: Ok so maybe i should update.... here goes
By: sickwake

Hmmm the snow is pretty sweet but the parks never seem to be built till half way through the season on grouse mt. pretty lame, went up and there was only 3 small rails jibable. maybe this week will have something worth shreddin.

when i get my charger back for my camera ill be shootin some vids and posting them up youtube stlye (although they will probably pull it for some stupid music copyright reason) hate that!

if anyone is still into riding/training this week ill be up on wednesday late afternoon evening.

its weird i didnt know till now that they have these free girl nights for all 3 local mountain. what a gip...... thats gonna create crowds....(i hate crowds) hence the reason i dont ride on weekends. its like a spamathon the mountain.

hows the whistler riders doing? i still havent gotten out there yet.

so by this point ( if you made it this far ) your definitely sick of my blabbing so you should probably stop reading this and be riding (or recovering).

again if your down for a ride im at grouse every week. it might help if your a grouse rider (cheapest passes why not)

hope ya'll having a sweet season so far. definitely the best christmas present this year is the sweet snow. you really know its good when the busses dont run up the hill.

thats why we drive lol.

peace

My Blog: A waste of time?
By: Savinglives101

Through life you live and you learn. Whether its with your job, hoddy, or personal life. Something recently though has been bothering me and I can't let it go.

I dated a wonderful girl for about 7 years. We cut to our different directions the 3rd quarter of 2007, and talked almost daily up until Thanksgiving 2008, when contact has been pretty much zero. I still consider her a friend, but it is tough for me to know what she's doing. I do want to best for her, but I've realized that it's better for me to leave it all behind and pretty much "forget" about her and all the good time's we've had. I hate to do this, but it has to be done so I can move on with my life. It gets tough though, especially when her brother and dad are some of my best friends.

Another thing though that bothers me is what I've missed out on. Me and the ex broke up for about 6 months in 2005. During that time I dated and towards the end of the year started to fall for another woman(we'll call her M). My ex doesn't know this, but we were on our way to a fairly serious relationship. M was phenominal, thats all that needs to be said. At the very end of 2005, me and my new date ran across my ex. Well, long story short, my ex came back and wanted to get together. I had a tough decision, and made it to familiar territory. I lost contact with M, and the last I heard, she was in Africa doing some sort of mission work. I sit here now wondering what it would've been like if the decision would've went the other way. I do know, I probably wouldn't have moved to Durango and had all those good times, but I wouldn't have been hurt twice by the same woman. I wonder quite a bit, if the last couple years was a waste of time. If there is such thing as a parellel universe, I'm jealous of the one in that universe from that moment. He's got something special, and I'm sure he's a lot happier.

Moral of the story, take care of you and make decisions for yourself (especially if your single). When you get feelings involved, your judgement becomes clouded and you may not make the best choices.

My Blog: Startin the Season Damn it! Lets go Boys!!!
By: sickwake

OK so heres the thing, YES I'm Girl but you know what I'm lookin for guy riders cause any girl that ive ridden with sux and cant keep up I even had a guy
buddy that wouldnt do do parks with me or black runs on fresh powed days.

Ive seen lots of regulars at the quicksliver park so if your one of them let me know, im always hiking the park.

Just to let you boys know im super easy to get along with and got one of those crazy outgoing personalities that lots of girls dont have (not trying to knock anyone just saying i hate drama queens). Im always the chick that goes out with guys on a guys night out type a thing ( i dont know how it ends up that way, being a tomboy or somethin i guess)

Aight seeing that this year is starting off slow (hasnt even started yet) Im gettin real frustrated and POed. If Grouse would just open Id been shredding it till rock bottom.

Id love to upload pics for you all but the upload mobile here dont work at all so i cant even post up mugshots.

for now facebook will have to do

Im hooking up with different rider this year. Really into gettin some good quality footage , both photo and video ( I actually have a proper video camera) I have some Creative works im planning and will post them on Youtube when there done.

As much as id love to take it up to whistler i cant afford it. so local mountains will have to do.

im out in burnaby so if your a local rider lets jam.

My end note here is this. Im all about the love and progression of the sport. No dissin or commercial, or selfish shi*t! keep the Positive Energy, Ride till it hurts and then turn it up anothernotch cuz thats what makes it worth it.

My Journal: torn in two
By: shiver666

my soal isn't whole. i'm confused by my demons. does love even exist or is it some fairy tale that we fource ourselves two believe. How is it that a person can pour thier heart ot to someone they are blinded by this "love". I almost hate to hear the word. i am just as much a victum of it as and other. I think it is so sad that my soal longs for it's mate, but i know it doesn't exist. Love is a hormone that we produce. Just like anger, saddness, and confuion. Just like heroine love over whelms our bodies and minds. if i know this then why do I feel I need it to survive. so torn between so many things. i feel like i'm drunk sitting on the edge deciding whether or not to fall. who do believe? i can't trust the ex but how trustful is the man? a person who can forget every thing you ever done for them and turn and hurt you so much. how can i even figure it out on my own if i have no friends. risking more then just me now. flashbacks of my teenage days make me feel twisted again. tainted by the eil around me i feel so mean. like and angery teen about to burst. i want to scream and run. where? i don't care i just want peace. my soal is not alone anymore. i can feel her growing almost with every word.

the demon that i have surpressed for so long. now she wakes feeding off of every evil emotion that is in this house. my mind laughs at me. all i can see is an angel trying to fly. with ropes tiedto her legs and wrists tears falling from her face. is this my soal? i'm so tired of trying that i almost want it to come. to open the door willingly to the demon. to twist our parts and halves together to make one vengeful being. all i want is to love someone and feel it back. to bad so sad the demon tells me. just let go it says. i wont let anyone urt us again she tells me. do i listen to my demon?

i just don't know i am torn in two.

News and stuff: Bit by the Party Snake! / I forgot about this..
By: ISDesign

Holy crap.. Did you see that Party Snake teaser yet? If so there's really only been two responses. 1. You loved it and can't wait to see more or 2. You hated it and wish it would die. There doesn't seem to be much middle ground on this on. Check out some of the comments I found on the Gnarcore site.

I'm still waiting on a revised teaser before I post it directly in the furious blog but you can check the rough version out on the Gnarcore site or find it on FB. There's some pretty funny comments there too:

My Blog: Rome's "No Correct Way" and "The Bluebird Movie"
By: porters_tahoe

Well, if you were foolish enough not to get a cab (yep - we know someone who did that!), it was still definitely worth the walk from the Gas Lamp district of San Diego up to Modus Bar and Lounge for "Under the Influence".

Why? Free beer!!

Well, that and the much-anticipated snowboard movie premiers of Rome’s "No Correct Way" and "The Bluebird Movie" from Bluebird wax. To inject a little personal stamp of approval on where the Bluebird crew is coming from, their tagline is: Snowboarding...it was better when you hated us. As any sport becomes bigger and more mainstream, it unfortunately can become a hostage to corporate money and corporate marketing and morphs into something that its originators never intended. Hopefully all the guys associated with the company can fare better than so many other promising brands that have come and gone over the last two decades of snowboarding.

The night got a little fuzzy pretty quickly, but I remember that our homies over at reelcomp.com were doing a webcast, our extended family JP Lagos over at thesnowlife.com kept the beers coming, John Foy from our friends down the hill at Boards 'n Motion was all smiles, and Runke the Rome sales manager was up to - or should I say "down to" - his normal mischievous ways!!

My Blog: I Hate You
By: Justin_J_is_cool

To every girl I said I loved,
Now, I hate you.
Even if I've never seen your face in person,

I still hate you.
I hate you
For every Valentine,
We never shared.
For every love letter,
Thrown in a fire.
For every kiss,
I thought might bring us closer together.

Navy, Azure, Cornflower.
Call me every shade of blue.
I hate you.
For every car I've wrecked
Because the trees somehow remind me of you.
For every person I've f*cked,
To show that you mean nothing to me.
Just so you know,
I still hate you.

The sun is rising and the day begins,
With thoughts of evil hearted you.
Church bells ring off in a distance.
For every man, woman, and child,
Planning their perfect wedding,
To someone they haven't met yet:
I hate you too.
But you, my former lover,
It's you
That I hate the most.
It's you
Who rattles my brain day and night
Never letting me sleep
For more than an hour.
For every time I've said I was sorry,
I meant to say,
I hate you.

Good bye, Brandie. Best wishes, and good luck.

Sincerly,

Justin

My Blog: (Love)Life in General.
By: Queen.Horror

I think I get hurt by guys every other day. I think I'm ready to give up on them.

Sometimes I find it hard to get out of bed in the morning.

He's never there when I need to talk to him.

I dont want to fall in love with anyone. Not because I'm scared to, because it would end badly.

I'm never with someone more than a month, because I dont want to get too close.

I hate being in love.

Spain Story

Written by Clayton Larsen

Robjn Taylor is gonna hate me for starting the story like this because every snowboard trip story does, but… When I was first told about a trip to Spain my first reaction, and I think it’s shared by many, was “ there’s places to ride in Spain?”. So not really knowing what to expect I headed off with, Brendan Keenan, Andrew Geeves, Ryan Tiene, Chris Rasman, John Scarth documenting it photographically and Gerhard Gross organizing and writing the story for Snowboard Canada. After a long flight with many delays, a game of rental van tetras with our bags, a long drive on the skinniest and most windy road where rules didn’t seem to apply, we arrived in Baqueria Beret. I was quick to realize two things; there were massive resorts to ride and beer was 45 euro cents a can! We met up with the Spain DC team manager Hugo Morales and an Argentinean filmer Martin and they gave us a tour of the resort. They were having a bad snow year so we couldn’t take full advantage for the vast terrain but the riders got creative and wewere able to get some great stuff. We were about to leave Spain and go to Andorra in search of snow when the manager of the local bar, Pacha’s, said they were going to get a lot of snow over night. To be honest I didn’t believe him but sure enough when we woke up it was dumping, so we hit the streets. We were able to ride through the streets of the village we stayed in, where some buildings dated back to the 1700’s. After about two weeks of traveling and riding the resorts, we were happy with the amount of footage and photos we had compiled, so we headed to Barcelona. We spent a couple days there skating some famous spots and partying like the loud obnoxious tourists we were. Spaghette!
