Hey I got a little shot in the Grouse Alterna Shoot clip on push.ca. Check it out!
Some behind-the-scenes footage of the Alterna crew’s annual shoot on Grouse Mountain. It would seem that their yearly shoot always brings blue skies…suspicious. Riding and speaking from Chris Rasman, Matt Belzile, JF Fortin, Craig Beaulieu, Tadej Valentan, Chris Dufficy, Johnny Lyall, Wiley Tesso, Barry Hartman, Beau Bishop, Eero Niemla and Mikey Rencz. Look for the final footage in their 09/10 release, Elektro.
Thought I would post this link on the blog. This winter was a great season to shred the local mountains and ride good powder. For a week straight I had the pleasure of riding Grouse every morning with Devun, The guy i’ve looked up to ever since I started snowboarding. It snowed every night and we woke up early every morning for the first tram ride up… then we would ride Olympic chair until our legs were wobbly. It was an amazing week! This is a little clip that Karl from ISdesgin put up on his blog.
Endeavor just put up their new site… and it looks pretty good! Check out the new boards, clothing, online store, team, artists, and downloads for your computer and your iPhone!
Hey folks!
For those of you that haven’t heard, I’ve recently started my own clothing company. I’m super stoked on this project finally taking off after a 3 year planning process. Before you get the wrong idea and think this is a “Look at me!” post, let me say that Walrus Design has finally taken off and there’s some hype around it. The team is growing and it contains an impressive line up of riders too! Okay, now you can think that this is a “Look at me!” post. However, I’m gonna make it worth your while.
This contest is specifically for the readers of Grousepark.com. You’ve been reading all season, and we here at the site value that. We’d have no jobs if you all didn’t read what we had to write. To show you that we feel the love, Walrus is giving out some shirts. All you have to do is, as the title states, go have some good, clean, PG-rated fun. Make a video or take a picture of you and your friends hanging out, going skating, singing along to Don’t Stop Believing by Journey really loud or exchanging high fives. Maybe all of the above! If you’re having a good time, I wanna see it.
All pictures MUST be in .jpeg format (if they’re not, I’m not gonna look at them, sorry…I’m lazy.) and all videos must be posted on a vieo hosting somewhere on the interwebs (YouTube, Vimeo etc.). You can email the pictures and links to sam@grousepark.com. Contest closes on May 18th, so get your submissions in before then. Top three submissions get gear and extras. Now go have some fun!

Get your Walrus on!

All good things must come to an end.
Only 6 shred-days left this season. Hopefully everyone has taken full advantage of the spring riding extension Grouse Mountain was kind enough to hook up.
If you haven’t been riding lately, make sure you get some while you still can! The park is slushy, the sun is out, and the sessions are on.
