Video: LINO’, an Animated Surf Flick
Check this video out...I've watched it ten times already. The music is super mellow, vibing well with the impressive stop-motion animation that makes those little Playmobil figurines look like they're just shredding some epic waves.
Lino', made by Karim Rejeb of KarimRejeb-SurfArt.com, is a masterpiece fit for anyone who has played with plastic toys. His vision of the world of surfing, a...
Friends of the TatsVan: Scott McBrayer – Bull Rider
Scott McBrayer, better known on the Freeskiing World Tour as McSlayer, just rode his third bull at the Carbondale Thursday night rodeo. Known for tossing frontflips to a stomped landing off of 40 foot cliffs, it's his background as a hunting guide and cowboy that makes Scott really stand out. He didn't make eight seconds (the minimum time for a score) in this ride, but as any cowpoke knows...
Mobile Lifestyle: The Mobile Office
Come the latter half of the summer, most of my days are spent shuttle driving for Blazing Adventures as the water on wild rivers gets lower and lower, and operations shift to other, more dam-controlled rivers. With the local trips on the Roaring Fork River on the wane, thanks in part to a rapidly melting snowpack and only a few bursts of precipitation since Memorial Day, we have started buss...
Pingu Goes Skiing
This is a funny viral video that has hit the winter audience. Stop-motion animation is so fun! (WARNING: some adult language and themes)

I know, I know, I’m the Powder Highway Ultimate Ski Bum. You’re probably thinking that I should be in Canada the whole three months, ripping around the Kootenays in uninterrupted bliss. And I agree with you.
However it’s SIA time, and all things skiing are happening in Colorado this week. This ski bum is going down to Denver to host a party for helmet and body armor manufacturer POC at the historic Bluebird Theater. Top secret playbill, so make sure to line up early!
I’ll be running around the tradeshow floor pumping the Powder Highway and drinking free beer on Friday, so say hi if you see me. Then, it’s back to Canada to finish off the next two months of pow hunting in BC. Yippee!
