He's been one of my best friends for a long time and his passion for shredding has never dwindled. Keep an eye out for this one. He will be making headlines in this industry sooner than later, just you wait.

BEAR MTN.

Bear Mountain is considered one of the first mountains to really move forward and support the idea of "freestyle" snowboarding, and over time it has cemented itself as one of the top mountain in the world as far as progression, and the quality of their terrain parks. Countless videos have been shot there, numerous pro's have rode there. Its almost a right of passage as a pro snowboarder to be in a Bear Mtn edit. However, there seems to be this lingering negative stigma attached to Bear Mtn riders or "locals" the words burnout and pot head come to mind, its a place were a snowboarder can go and die, literally dropping off the face of the map. Why? no one really knows maybe its the fact that riding that park is just so perfect that you never want to leave, ask Lucas Magoon for the answer to that question. There aren't many snowboarders who make it out of Bear and make a name for themselves. Guys like Chris Bradshaw is a one of kind bear local that has been and is doing it so right, and for the younger generation Zak Hale. But one thing will always ring true Bear edits always leave me with a smile on my face, and this one is no exception, an instant classic!

The Peoples Champ

This guys part seems to be a favorite of pros and shmos alike this year. Its crazy to think a guy with this bag of tricks and such an unreal amount of style isn't more hyped or more loved in the snowboard world, but then again maybe that's what makes snowboarding so sick at the same time. Enjoy!

Snowboarding

First of all, Nobody wants to read anything when they go on one of these blogs. This one being less than a day old, and this idea being even younger, who knows who will get past this line.

Recently I have been doing a lot of thinking about snowboarding. Not just the sport..or art...if you want to get sentimental about it, but more of the industry itself and how its kind of this cool click of people and the goal of thousands of kids these days is to break into it and eventually make a living off of it. Lets face it, everybody wants a job in the snowboard industry. Maybe it is to have all of the free stuff they can handle, or be able to talk to their favorite snowboarders, and get paid to do it. Regardless, everyone wants in, and when you figure out your just not going to get in to it. there is a certain bitterness that makes so many people not want to snowboard any longer.

After reading Scotty Wittlakes interview recently, it dawned on me that there are better things to do with your life than be a professional snowboarder. Yes, it would be an amazing 10 years, but what happens when your in jeremy jones, or JP walkers place, where you probably should have retired a year or two ago and found a cushy industry job but instead you decided to start calling shuv-its innovative and doing mctwists off of moving trucks. Anyway these guys might have enough in the bank now to retire early and surf in a so-cal for the rest of their lives, who knows. So Scotty Whittlake was a major pro snowboarder who did not seem to care the least bit about money and seems to have an extremely low tolerance for bullshit and or capitalism, but his snowboarding is fun to watch, and he loves doing it. Now he works partly for his friend Mike Leblanc at Holden, and than does industrial jobs all summer to live out the winter snowboarding. Sounds perfect for someone without a desire to make a lot of money, and loves snowboarding. Awesome.

I however, along with many of my friends, am not Scotty Wittlake, I love money, and I love snowboarding. Another issue is that I do not have the smallest bit of interest in the contest circuit which the money in snowboarding revolves around. If I could come up with a reasonable system and had absolute power over the snowboard industry I would probably try to devise a system where the best video parts received what would be the prize money given out in contests, and than the contest kids can hear from all of the haters on message boards and make under 30 a year. However I have no control over the snowboard industry and I am just another kid who would like to stay involved.

With all of the video companies these days, I can not help but see a similarity between video companies and sport franchises. You get a group of people together and try your hardest to make the best video possible with the budget you are given by the companies who support you for filming their riders. Sports franchises also have sporting good companies backing them, along with an owner and a whole lot more money. However they also try and make the best team possible with the money and talent they have access to. Anyway, the point I am getting to is how do we have all of these snowboarders all around the world and such a small group of people contributing to the core of this industry. I think if someone bombed the right star bucks in salt lake or portland (although it wouldn't be a star bucks cause its not hip enough) than we might be out 4 snowboard companies. I think the way to make more jobs in the snowboarding industry is to do it through the video companies. We all just need to figure out the details
