Ken Block Jumps his Subaru 171ft

Just about everyone has seen the recent cover of Snowboarder with Ken Block jumping his Subaru in New Zealand alongside snowboarders from the DC team. Apparently Ken is a F###in badass, because aside from creating DC Shoes, he has bigger balls than just about anyone out there. He pulls an Evel Kneivel-like air of 171 ft in his car for stunt junkies in this clip. The snow footy can be seen in DC Mountain Lab 1.5. read this story for more info

Snowboarders declare victory on Taos

Shayboarder posted up this info on her blog: Now Taos Has Allowed snowboarding on their mountain.
It looks like Burton Snowboards can claim success on this one. Only recently began an ad campaign led by Burton to get all 4 blacklist resorts to Open Up. see $5000 prize for Poaching the Mountain" So suddenly Taos has declared that they will now open to snowboarders. The snowboarders and Jake Burton both get a victory. It looks like Burton really made a difference. They post a poaching Taos video where the snowboarders get roughed up simply for snowsliding down a mountain on one board instead of two. And it leads to Taos opening the mountin to snowboarders, yeah!
So Burton's marketing team can pat themselves on the back, cause this announcement will only cause great sales at Christmastime, and who in the snowboarding industry isn't looking for that. There's still 3 more resorts out there who don't allow snowboarding. So poach away and maybe you'll even win the $5000 prize Burton is offering for filming your exploits and publishing them on their site.

New Frequency out Now

Issue 6.2
The Fall 2007 issue is hitting shelves just in time for the snow to start flying. Features include an interview with Austrian powder pirate Gigi Rüf, a four day powder and champagne binge on a private heli-equipped yacht, the rich history of Lake Tahoe’s Boreal Mountain Resort, summer camp in Iceland where the sun hardly sets, a gallery of images from Spacecraft’s Stefan Hofmann, and an urban mission to the Canadian Province of Québec. Commentary on Let it Ride: The Craig Kelly Story, Whistler artist Vanessa Stark, the art of grabbing stalefish, Whistler’s new gondola, and, finally, the number one commodity being plundered by aliens here on planet earth—the scarce and highly flexible element known as Boron—rounds out the issue. Getting you ready for another year of riding, it’s frequency: TSJ’s eighteenth installment.

$5000 cash prize for Snowboarding Where You Can't snowboard

Thanks to Justin for the heads up on this one.
Burton snowboards is offering a $5000 cash prize for making a video documentary showing you accomplish a poaching mission at the 4 resorts in North America that don't allow snowboarding: Deer Valley,UT; Alta,UT; Mad River Glen,VT; & Taos,NM. The video footy they already posted is hilarious, although it looks like some riders might have got arrested in Taos. I bet if this happens to you, Jake Burton himself will pay your ticket, so don't worry, just poach. F$$# those skiers, they give cool skiers a bad name. I have some friends that ski and aren't biotches like these guys in Utah,New Mexico, and Vermont.
If anyone is down, we should organize a million snowboarder march on these mountains and protest these Draconian laws!
