Powder Panic

Resorts and ski areas across the country have experienced an interesting phenomenon this season: powder panic. Now, don't get me wrong, skiers and snowboarders have always had that mob-mentality, freshies-frenzy when it comes to new snow and chairlift lines. People have been known to shove, push, pole and also to be shoved, pushed, poled in the mess that is the rush for first chair and tha...

The Bitch is Back

La Nina has been a cold nasty lady this winter...well, at least for the shredheads in B.C burrowing through their streets en route to the snow encrusted mountaintops. We in Aspen have had it lucky. We haven't had the slightest issue with parking in town or with having to decide if the furnace room or the fireplace is the best way to dry your ski gear. Yep, instead of shred outfit maintenance p...

Saddle Up with Pat and Tats: Episode 1

The Pat and Tats Show is back on program, and we've kicked it off with our first season of Saddle Up with Pat and Tats, presented by Tecnica/Blizzard.

Trew Crew Posse Day on Ajax

Had a great time the other day with our local Trew Crew: John Pew, Casey Vandenbroek, Pat Sewell, JF Bruegger, Colter Hinchliffe, Parker Olson and more. It snowed 1/4in overnight and we took advantage of the freshies with slash-turn faceshots on every run. With this group, everyday is a powder day.

Ski Bum Gear: Reef Sushi Roll Sandal

Trust me, I know things.

Reef Sushi Roll Sandal

I just spent a week touring the newest Warren Miller flick around to movie venues across Oregon. I lugged boxes and carts carrying everything from $40,000 projectors to a giant, air-filled Yeti from Utah.

And I’ve done it all in my new Reef Sushi Roll Sandals. These kicks are so sweet I just can’t stop wearing them!

The others in the road crew think I’m crazy to wear sandals while loading up all the heavy equipment, but I just tell ‘em, “Sandals to ski boots, there’s nothing else!

With a shake of their heads, I just move on and get to setting up the movie screen for our gig. And all of this is done in Samurai style with these sushi-inspired sandals. Seriously, they have bamboo mat soles with feaux sushi rolls blinging up the sides; point in case, chicks dig ‘em.

It’s either that or this warrior ‘stache I’ve been sportin’. No…probably just the sandal steeze.
