Chile Snowboarding

Hey everyone! This is Dubs. Me, Lucas Debari, and Tarek Husevold are in Chile right now filming and its sick. We've ran into all the Chilean pro homies like Manuel Diaz, JP Audisio, Christian Wehrhahn and more. We had a sneak preview premier for Sentimental Values at El Colorado Happy Hour for those guys and its was a hit. Needless to say we are going to be doing a lot more gnarly shizzle while we're down here. The snow base is great and we've been making some pure powder tracks for all of you stuck in summer. I will add a picture or two soon, its been crazieness so far. Oh yeah, its supposed to snow .5 meters tonight (1.5ft)!!!!!!!!!! Expect to see some sick stuff from the Funner Crew!!!!

New News

Yo internet! It is August, if you know what I mean...

-Signal Snowboards is jointly (hehe) hosting the First Annual Railtown Streetjam. I don't exactly know what this means; I think it is sneaky Canadian code. I believe they switched town and jam, so if I am right (and I am brilliant), there is REALLY a railjam in streettown. Next, find out where streettown is...

-Burton put up its new site...

-So did brand o' the year, BATALEON...

I just returned from a little vacation in Tucson, Arizona. I did all kinds of Arizoney things. I ate mexican food, and went to Mexico to buy some fresh new threads. I also caught a tarantula, which my dad thought was a mammal. I googled it and showed him that it wasn't....

Matt French is in Japan promoting the release of the first issue of Volcomics. He collaborated on the cover with Jim Phillips, who you know as the creator of some of those original Bones Brigade skateboard art pieces.

Matt is the art director behind the Sentimental Values snowboard project by Funner Films. He's is shown here examining his art piece for the Sentimental Values cover. Matt will be spending the weekend getting mobbed by crowds of Japanese admirers in Tokyo along with fellow artist Jamie Lynn.

Catch The Vapors...bro.

Standard Films released their teaser for "Catch the Vapors" to TWSnow. It takes some big cajones to release your teaser exclusively to the blood thirsty wolves that lurk on the transworld website. As should be expected, the reviews are mixed. I would listen to this guy....

"At 5:14 PM super smart said: they shouldve kept calling them "TB" movies. and the music in their videos usually sucks. other than that though standard films is definitely one of the sickest production companies out there. the three videos ive got on my list to buy next year are "picture this", "keep talkin" and now "catch the vapors" probably get whiteout films video too and maybe "sentimental values" from a small production company called funner films based out of mt. baker. one of the only small production companies that still gets gnarly!"

Indeed, you are super smart.
