Happy Holidays
Hey there, it’s Jeremy here checking in for my second year of blogging with the Quiksilver Park at Grouse. I am generally regarded as a filmer, always down to shoot as long as the weather is good. This year I’ll be wearing a red jacket above black plants, fairly baggy. Feel free to say hi. Throughout the holidays I have been taking advantage of the amazing weather we have been having for the past week. As of the holidays I have finally been able to get some time to ski and film enough for a decently sized edit. The edit includes, in order of appearance Frodo, Brian Choi, Joe Mickelson, Simon Stulberg and Ben Neil (props to the huge backflip over the hip). I hope you enjoy it. As well I have been working on a RC Heli + Go Pro cam setup. I took it up Grouse the other day, however crashed it early on causing gnarly vibrations throughout the rest of the day. I will be getting that dialed in throughout the week so check back later for updates.

Have a good one

An Introduction: It’s DJean!
Hi!
My name’s Jean Lavigne, and this season I have been chosen to be on board blogging for grousepark.com. I’m a snowboarder and a Grouse local. I’ve been snowboarding since I can remember and since then I’ve always called Grouse home. The last four winter seasons I’ve spent working up Grouse as a snowboard instructor teaching kids of all ages how to shred! I live on the North Shore and when I’m not at work or schooling, you can find me up Grouse lapping the park or hunting down pow on the Olympic Chair. I normally come up alone but always meet up with the shred posse, so if you ever see me around give a shout, I’m always down to cruise. THE MORE THE MERRIER!! Something else I’m really passionate about is music, and when I’m not busy with the above, I’m either listening or finding new music. I put together mixes under the alias DJEAN, so you can look out for some bangin’ mixes from me this season or from other local riders who too love to jump on the VDJ tables.
Look out for some edits and photos from me this season of all things awesome up Grouse, especially the park, we all know the talk about the snow this season, hopefully that pulls through because no doubt with enough the Quicksilver Park is going to be killin’ it.
Make sure to get Djean on Facebook, for all updates on the music side, Here’s a link to some of my older mixes, and I’ve got some in the works too so look out for those. Stoked to meet all the fellow park rats!
PEACE,
Jean.
DJEAN Hip Hop Mix
Hey Guys,
I have some more posts coming soon, but check this out. My good buddy DJEAN has a new hiphop mix out and it is awesome! DJEAN is also a snowboard instructor up here at Grouse Mountain so this mix is local and fresh! Be sure to join his Facebook group!

Marcus’ Music Friday
Marcus actually sent me this on Monday, so we could do Marcus’ Music Monday and feel all rad because we alliterated, but I’m a poopyhead and forgot to post it. Here’s the track for this week, Exhibit C by Jay Electronica. It’s got a dope beat, great lyrics and he’s considered a Nas in the making. Have a listen!
Marcus’s Music Friday
Many of you Grouse locals may know Park Crew veteran, Marcus Cartwright. A staple on the Grouse Mountain scene, Marcus also has quite the ear for hip hop. Starting next week, Marcus is gonna drop a weekly track, maybe two, maybe…actually, however many he feels like. To kick things off, here’s a bomb track that sums up all of 2009 and rings in 2010. As Marcus says, better late than never. I’m pretty sure he stole that from somewhere though. You can follow along with the lyrics and the track is available as a free download too.
