The forecast for next weekend is looking great and we still have tons of snow...SO WE'RE GOING FOR IT! Alpental will once again be extended to allow you turns this Memorial Weekend, Saturday, May 24th, Sunday, May 25th, as well as Monday, May 26th!

What an amazing year to be a lover of snow! With over 591" of snow so far this season, there is more snow predicted for this week! What does that mean for you? A long and excellent spring in the mountains. Already dreaming of what the 2008-2009 season will hold? Be sure to check out next season's Big S Passes today.

Here's what we're planning:

Alpental: (Update!) Open this Memorial Weekend, Saturday, May 24th, Sunday, May 25th, as well as Monday, May 26th! This season is definitely one of the longest Alpental has ever had!

All other base areas are now closed for the season. Thanks for helping us make this the longest season in over 30 years at Summit Central, and the longest season the tubing center has ever had!

Bjorn Leines Maniac Experiment Photo

A few years ago rail jams were unheard of except for one event: the Red Bull Heavy Metal Rail Jam. The first event was in Niagra Falls, NY and the second one came one year later at in downtown Portland, Oregon. For me and my buddies, we were very excited to see all of our favorite pros attending such a crazy event as a rail jam, where snow was brought in from Mt Hood by the truckload. Numerous big names attended like Marc Frank, Chris Englesman, Travis Parker, TJ Schneider, and Bjorn Leines. I got this really sick photo of Bjorn and decided to make a collage for my photoshop class with him in it. Here it is and enjoy!

Bozwreck 2: The Worst Teaser Ever

Check out this teaser for Bozwreck 2 if you are really bored. This is pretty much a shitty remake of the first Bozwreck, a film made by Nate Bozung and his friends. Now from what we've heard they're a bunch of drug addicts who apparently have sponsors so stoked that they are willing to give them more money for coke and less for a high quality production. It seems that they couldn't find a single obstacle that Marc Frank Montoya, Jeremy Jones, or Darrell Mathes haven't already destroyed. Its as if they decided to make a movie in 2000 and they finally got around to editing the old footy. Who cares about a bunch of lazy bastards that won't even go riding in the mountains. Oh yeah they snuck a pow shot in there, did you blink and miss it?

Red Bull Snowboard & Wakeboard Commercial

Starring Snowboarders: Lucas Debari, Caleb Johnson, Nick Ennen, Nate Lind, Chispa, and Wakeboarder Mike Ennen. This is a funny attempt at commercializing our snowboarding so we can get more corporate sponsors and a bigger travel budget. You have to work it however you can in the action sports business. So we edited a commercial in an attempt to get red bull sponsorship for Funner Films' Sentimental Values DVD. All we ended up getting is a bunch of cases of redbull and a sugary stomach-ache.

Technine Finger on Da Trigger - Familia Teaser Video Movie

Finger on Da Trigger - Familia Teaser Video
This features typical gangsta snowboarding wanksta kids from the SLC doing ledge drops, wallrides and big rails. Parts that will be watchable include upcomer Lucas Magoon, known for his all around jibbing innovations like the tail block. Marc Frank Montoya will also have a part since he rides for Technine Snowboards. They must be paying Marco a ton of cash to ride those boards, or else he's doing it for the straight up homie love for E. Fortier, owner of Technine and longtime filmer and photographer. How much do you think a company like Burton would pay Marco just to ride their boards, and he's riding Technine?????
