Festival Overview:

The Mt. Baker Film and Art Festival started in 1999 in an effort to provide a venue for independent filmmakers of the ski and snowboard industry. The Mt. Baker Film Festival highlights independent filmmakers from the Northwest filming in regional and international locations. In addition we welcome ski and snowboard filmmakers from every corner of the snow blessed world to participate. Films that include other sports that fuel the rush are encouraged to submit. Example: Surfing, BMX, Skate, Motocross etc…

This year the 8th Annual Mt. Baker Film Festival will showcase short films or portions of feature length films. The number of films chosen depends on the number of entries and duration of these submissions. The festival provides local, regional and national filmmakers the opportunity to expose their films to approximately 1,300 viewers while participating in a community event. Last years event reached venue capacity

New Wall Ride Jam @ Walbon's

Saturday the 13th of October was a wall ride jibfest with a solid drop in ramp and some bangers going down. Andy Walbon's crew decided to throw a party for his roomate Randy's b-day. Well local boardshop The EDGE listened and put together 2 kegs and some shwag to give out. Plus they organized some free pizza and got quite a few loads of snow in for it.


When all was said and done Tarek Husevold took home the win with some fancy footwork. Looks like its the start of a solid year for the Bellingham Urban Shredders League.

As the party was getting shut down by the cops photographer Aaron Pffefer climbed on the roof and ordered everyone to get into a photo with the cops. Keg cops and everything, flashes going off and the last few riders dropping in.

The next day we watched the seahawks game at Lando's where he's got a sweet Jamie Lynn wall painting.
Mikey P and Patrick McCarthy watching the seahawks lose.

Sentimental Values premiere at Pizza Factory

Downtown Throwdown yo!

To whom it may concern,

I apologize for the lack of updates. A trip to Chile, a new school year, new house, and unexcusable laziness have prevented me from updating. This will cease now...

Today, Saturday October 6th, is the third annual Downtown Throwdown hosted by Krush's Snowboy Productions and Boarderline*. Festivities will include a bbq (hell yes), rail jam, product giveaways (from more sponsors than shaun white has), and a bro fest. Setup includes a whoopty-doo, shit is gonna be crackin! This is going to be a good time.

7pm.
1100 Bellevue Way NE,
Bellevue, the eastside sonnnnnn

Rumor has it that local celeb, Craig "showtime" Gillis will be there.
*seriously boarderline, is this the best image you have??

Pucon Chile,,,,,, Viva La Chile!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A Night in Bellingham

This past Friday was a very nice day. It was how all Friday's should be: stress-free, buoyant, and slightly giddy. Normally, Friday's are not like this - they more resemble a Tuesday. But Friday was indeed a Friday, and a special Friday because it was the night of the Standard and Funner films duel-premier. My friend Kael and I rallied on up to the majestic Mt. Baker Theatre, in Bellingham. Bellingham is a very special place. The locals there are like one big family, and they readily welcome "outsiders" with a pat on the back and a round of shotgunnin'. The "family" was in full attendance, and if you weren't, what the hell were you thinkin? Now to the matter of utmost importance...

Mr. Dubs, very goddamn well done. Funner's "Sentimental Values" kept my head shaking in disbelief for a good hour. The Funner crew has really stepped it up with stellar filming and inspired riding. Hoots and hollers overpowered the soundtrack through the length of the film. If other films from this season seem to lack powder, it is because Funner stole it all. "Sentimental Values" showcases true northwest riding: a compromise between chaos and beauty. I particularly enjoyed the South American montage. "Sentimental Values" ends with a knock 0ut punch from the Bellingham bruiser, Lucas Debari. But viewer beware: after seeing "Sentimental Values" the remaining days of summer will be even more painful than ever. As soon as it ended, I checked the date on my phone: "damn, it's still August".

As for Standard Films' "Catch the Vapors", well, Mark Landvik is in it. I don't really need to say anything else.

Eric Jackson is also in it, and damn, homeboy loves to roll the dice. He hustled my buddy outside the theatre. Well played, Mr. Jackson, well played.

I don't remember much after that. Ahhh, Bellingham.

Words on Wednesday

Chile next week...but for now, some findings on the world wide web.

1. If you are in the northern hemisphere, then grab your fanciest hat and head to Bellingham on Friday for the premier of Standard Films' "Catch the Vapors" (...bro...) which will be preceded by none other than,
funner's "SENTIMENTAL VALUES"

This is it folks, go catch some shred flicks and then go get down and make it rain...

2. After the funnerpalooza on Friday, check out how Burton has made HP.... Hip!!! (by the way, is Burton cool?? Or are they too main stream?)

3. If you are still in the northern hemisphere, or any of the other hemispheres, go to Bumbershoot. Why? There are many reasons. For instance, you can work on being a hipster and tell all your friends about the bands that you saw that they have never heard of. But most importantly:

Wu-Tang Clan
