Cut Line Laps with Mike and Tomas
I got some laps in this week on the new Grouse Park Cut Line build. With the sun out, it was time to take out the camera and get some shots. Riders in the edit are Michael Granger and Tomas Smythe. Hope you enjoy it and don’t forget to click the “HD” button.
Look out for the upcoming Oakley Night Jam on Friday January 13th.
See ya there!

Hello!
Hello Everyone!
My name is Matthew Waring and this is my first year producing content for the grouse blog! I am exited to get this season going and to spend as much time as I possibly can up in the mountains. I am originally from Ontario and am currently going to school at Capilano University. I have been living in BC for 3 years, one in Whistler and two in Vancouver. My main passions are skiing and photography so I am happy to be able to combine the two using Grouse Park blog as an outlet. When I’m not in school you will see me in the mountains skiing, filming and generally having fun, because we live in an insane part of the world!
Here are a couple of clips from December in the Hike Park – One of the best parts about this set up is that you can re-learn all of those rusty tricks you may have lost from the summer. Perfectly mellow features to get tricks on, before taking them to bigger stuff. That’s it for now – see you up there.

It’s On
It’s on. Another season of snowboarding on Grouse Mountain. Another year of tree runs, park laps, and powder turns. To introduce myself, my name is Myrosha Daley and I have been riding for almost 20 years, competitively for 15, and I have worked in the snowboard industry for nearly 10. I have been fortunate in my shred life to snowboard at many different mountain resorts. Grouse is still one of my favorite places to ride. It might be how close it is to my house. Or it might be how I can get a hot lap with rollers one run, and hit the park the next. It will be another year of getting off work, quickly grabbing my gear while eating dinner, and out the door to catch the Skyride tram for a night session. It will be another year of laughs on chairlifts, 9:30pm powder slashes and eventually slushy spring fun wearing jeans, a t-shirt and shades. When I really think about it, it makes sense. Another year of riding Grouse Park and I can’t wait.

Spring Break Shake
Joy footage and Cut Stone productions have been killing it lately. Every single edit that has been coming from both of the crews have been sick, not to mention they are all shot on our local mountains. Here’s their latest edit, Spring Break Shake. Check it out!
PS. Grouse has been getting tons of snow lately, and it’s April! chyea.
Quiksilver Showdown Over the City
With the city in view, the Quiksilver Showdown ran full-blast last Sunday. All riders were throwing down and out of the many competitors, the results came down to Zach Stone landing the Best trick, Bobby Balharry placing third, Jeremy Cloutier placing 2nd and Eric Willet with the win.
With my t2i in hand and riders throwing down, I was stoked to get to film these guys. Check out the edit!
The boys are back in town
The Whistler boys were in town for a couple of days so I brought the 7D out to shoot some pictures with them up Grouse. The conditions weren’t the best but they were all throwing down regardless, stomping some of the best tricks these Grousepark features have ever seen. Like I said, conditions were not ideal but I managed a couple of alright shots regardless.
See you all at Showdown,
Frodo.
Last Weekend with the Nomis Crew
Last weekend the boys from Nomis came up and shreded the Quik Park. Here’s the edit they put together for your viewing pleasure. All these kids all have a pretty hypnotic style, and are able to make even a nosepress your favourite thing to watch. I want to go snowboarding now.
