Cliptionary Finals on Dachstein

The project started in February when riders from all around Europe were invited to submit 1-minute-long clips showing their snowboarding skills. All they needed to do is follow 1 simple rule: clips had to include a bs 5, my favourite trick.

Clips started rolling in, some had the riding on a pro level, and some were showing the most creative production so far. Some of the riders spiced it up with the 3D technique, whereas the others just destroyed the rails.

After several months of voting via Facebook, it was Mitja Kodric who received incredible 688 likes, followed by Luka Krajnik with 584 likes. These two lads won a direct spot at the 4 men finals. The remaining 2 spots were decided by the two of the most recognized snowboarders in the world. Eero Ettala chose Daniel Dietrich and Marc McMorris chose Flo Corzelius.

These are the 4 winners that made it through the online part of the project. Now it is up to them to throw it down in real life.

Up until now the location of the finals has been kept secret. The time has come to reveal it. The finals will take place on 19 May 2012 on Dachstein in Austria. The action starts in the afternoon when the ski resort is closed, enabling the riders to use the entire snowpark as their playground. They will be judged by their tricks, style and creativity. I will be the only judge.

The rider I pick, the winner, and this lucky rider will get a chance to go to Whistler and attend the camp of the champions. The rider will bring his homie and they will undoubtedly have a trip of a lifetime.

THIS IS THE DACHSTEIN PARK THEY WILL RIDE!!!

solden jump

joined up with Pirates for a day on the Solden jump. we decided that we will do a sunrise shot. woke up at 4 am and started riding at 5.30. it was awsome. i was not sure what i am doing on the jump for the first half session since i was still sleeping. but than again i never know what i am doing on the jump. heh. we were a cool crew 2 more yugos, jeromel and mico and the djudes.com .we rode till 3  and enden up a sick day with barbecue.

Tahoe with Burton

the last weeks we have been in Tahoe. we had this jump build for us and it was awesome to hit it. it is really cool to be the whole crew together. that does not happen manny times during the season since we are all on different programs. we rode a lot and just did fun stuff when we had time off. there was a lot of ass whooping like when me and andro teamed up in tennis and smoked those fools. heh

Sun Valley shot with Burton

we had a sick setup here in Idaho for the last few days. a really legit double line. the crew was mikkel, danny D, WerDog, Roope, Andreas W and Seppstafary. we had a few really cool sessions and smiles were all over the place. i think the best moment might have been when Danny came with a brand new outfit and on his first run hit this side hit on the jump. send it way too far and flew into the dirt that was on the outrun like a little squirrel. came up full of mud and said it felt so weird to be that clean. heheh
