And Die!

Just finished and entered a contest for a Grafik Armor snowboard decal.

It's being promoted by Forsnowboarding.com which is in their own words, "The detail-oriented online information source focusing on the art and design subcultures within the snowboard industry."

There are some great designs in the running including my good friend Austin Watts of One Day Vaca.

Check it out mine here and Austin's here. No voting but you can leave a comment if you'd like!

I'm an Asshole!

For not taking any pics of our Stowe adventure. I'd like to blame it on the excitement and generally average snow conditions on the first day, although it was awesome to have some spring like conditions in winter; the fact that it was raining low on the mountain the second day, so once again snow was fun but nothing extraordinary; and on the third day we had a great fucking day of powder riding, the day that pics would have been good but who has time when the gettin' is good and it's your last day? Stowe is now my favorite mountain in the East. Sorry Killington. You used to be my crown jewel but Stowe is steep, tons of trees and rocks, and there's never anybody there! Heaven. And did I mention powder? Too bad it's expensive and far away.

Going to Stowe!

Sorry, folks, Dienasty will be MIA until Sunday. We'll be back with some new things next week!

For Real!

So this event kinda sucked. It was brick and it seemed like forever in between runs. Crazy 9 story run in and an icy looking landing that, in person, looked pretty insane. Cool that they had it, but given the temps they should've had this thing running much smoother.

As rumors suggested, they are going to open this up to the public, albeit in a much tamer 3 story version. Not sure what is actually going to be on hand. Can't imagine being able to launch that gap with enough speed from only 3 stories up, but we'll see. It's going to be open February 16th-22nd, just in time for NYC public school vacation week. Be prepared to battle it out with  a shitload of kids! 11-4pm daily. Also in Central Park tomorrow is Winter Jam. Open to the public as well.

And this is why nobody but pros will ever ride the skyscraper...

Big Air! What What!

This monster's gonna get a professional beatdown tonight here in NYC. East River Park at FDR and Houston. Gates at 3pm, Practice at 3:30, Valient Thor performs at 5:05, Contest at 5:45, Black Gold performs at 7:10, Finals at 7:45, Awards at 8:50, and Anthrax performs at 8:55! Sounds like a sick night. Bundle up, it's cold outside! More info here. And it's FREE! Plus there's rumor that this thing may stay up for locals to ride. We'll see...

I so wanna hit this!

Man I gotta get up to Killington this year, holy shit this place looks amazing!

You can launch the shack?! What?! Is this for real?!

New Ride!

Pretty psyched, went up to Mt Snow for New Years, got some fresh snow, ducked some ropes and destroyed some untracked pow and in the end got a new board, Lib Tech Skunk Ape 62, from a friend at Joe Jones Ski and Sport. Thanks J! Go get one! Pretty!

HAPPY MOTHERFUCKIN' NEW YEARS EVE!!!

Don't know what you suckers are up to but we're headed up to Mount Snow in VT for some boarding, booze, bar bands (oh hellz yeah), and general mayhem of all sorts! Fuck Yeah! Whatever you're up to, have fucking fun and stick around for 09 cuz shit's only getting better! We will be back shortly, better than ever and ready to take your $ and put a smile/scowl on your tough mug. Do it!
