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.

Press release:

Alpental has been extended! It will re-open Saturday and Sunday, May 10th and 11th from 9am-4pm.

What an amazing year to be a lover of snow! With over 590" 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 Saturdays and Sundays through 5/11. The longest season at Alpental in over 30 years!

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!

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?????

Fill not your heart with pain and sorrow but remember me in every tomorrow
Remember the joy, the laughter, the smiles
I’ve only gone to rest for a little while
If my leaving has caused pain and grief
Know that going has eased my hurt and given me relief
So dry your eyes and remember me not as I am now but as I used to be

Because, I will remember you all and look on with a smile
Understand, in your heart, I’ve only gone to rest a little while
As long as I have the love of each of you, I can live my life in the hearts of all of you.
