SKATE the SNOW. DVD

Received a copy of 'skate the snow' yesterday from andrew and gearbox films... Andrew did an excellent job telling the tale of snowskating and offering a glimpse into it's future...
He hasn't pinned down away of purchasing the video yet, but when he does, I will post a link... Definitely worth buying a copy... More to come... Great job! To everyone involved

12/9/10

I check weather forecasts alot....all sorts of surf forecast sites, ski/snow sites, and tons of blogs with cams... Probably my favorite combo is magic seaweed, combine with the 'vanilla' weather button on my phone, the one that just shows simple icons. I have so many towns saved on my phone, that a quick scroll reveals if the storm is moving across land, down from canada or cranking along the coast.....coupled with predicted buoy heights and booya!! I'm locked in?? with all this tech and knowledge, one thing is sure, not one inch of snow has fallen so far in my front yard... Haha ...soon ... This cam pic is from an area upstate that has already received 30" and is inching toward four feet! Check the stake... There's a few resorts up there and plenty of sidecountry, which is nice, because if things don't start piling up locally, it's only a car ride away and it's got a snow flake everyday this week !!! (I've also noticed that PNW is getting walloped again) check out the white door

Black & white powderstick has been pulled from the press after laminating the ptex, (with concaves, and channels)

These boards are spoken for, but if your interested in something similar please email: decembersnowskates@gmail.com

Short days but plenty of surf lately, and snow is piling up upstate ...
Everywhere seems to be getting snow, I read that 50% of US is forecasted for a white Christmas this year... Get the flat decks ready

Ahh! December 1st (free month of advertising) :)

production news:

laminated the ptex onto the first powder board of the season tonight, should be out of the press tomorrow. sorted out big sheets of maple for the next powder build. working on a late season backpack skateboard, some thermal shirts and piecing together a small run of bi-deck completes, flat decks, and surfpowderskates for M.M.M. who's starting an online surf store called the 'surf locker'. I believe it's going live very shortly, so I'm excited for his new endeavor and getting some december stuff in his shop...more to come as it progresses

and lastly:

here's a video from very limited pics I took the other day on the slopes. On saturday it was snowing pretty hard and combined with all the blowing snow it was difficult to keep my phone dry so I gave up... at the end of the day I broke out a single deck and rode it just before sundown on a snow covered driveway. I wish I filmed the part when i fell and shot the flat deck under a handrail and down a steep bank and into the primary ski parking lot, it skidded to a stop dead in the middle of the lot right in front of a ski patroler walking to her car... because it was so cold and the snow was blowing from all directions she had her hood up and her head down, never saw anything!...if it was two weeks from now, that board would have nailed someone...last time I lost a board it went into the bay...i guess this is best i could do...thanks for checking things out..kev
