Oakley Night Jam: The Edit
This past Friday was the third night jam of the season. The jam took place in the new Cut park, which is amazing for the amount of snow we have. The grand prizes included two Oakley goggles and a pair of Oakley sunglasses. Check out what went down during and after the jam in the little edit below. Thanks to Charlie for announcing.

Oakley Night Jams 3: Cut Edition
Last night was the Oakley Night Jam. Chuck was on the mic, keeping everyone entertained, Tamo was judging snowboarders, Peter helped out with the ski side of things and everyone was throwing down. The prizes weren’t being thrown out for nothing, the kids had to work for ‘em, so the result was a sick little competition. If you haven’t already heard, the park has been moved over to the left side of Cut and it is actually really fun. The park crew had to get creative but they’ve put a pretty rad setup together so check it out this week.
The comp started off with tricks being called out and prizes were given for whoever could do them first. Then, the format was changed up and there were qualifiers, where the first 3 people to do the designated trick would get into finals. Next, finals were moved to the elbow kink where the finalist who did the right trick first won.
In the end, the winners were Mr. Ben Neil on the ski side of things, walking away with a new pair of Oakley Ambush goggles and Oakley sunglasses, and an underdog on the snowboard side of things, whose name I still don’t know, but he fought hard for the win after turfin’ it pretty hard a few times, snaking a pair of Oakley Crowbars for his efforts. All in all, it was an awesome night, one of the best night jams yet! Don’t miss the next one, who knows it could be even better! Here are some shots:
Well there ya have it! Some kid even went as far as saying that Chuck was the funniest guy around. So, Chuck is officially the funniest guy out there and the park is still kickin’ and better than ever, so get up the mountain as soon as you can and have a good old time!
Alterna Shoot
At the end of the 2009 season, I was invited to film the Alterna Shoot alongside Charlie Grinnell. This was an amazing experience involving superb riding, course and location. The weather was in our favour, providing the shoot with soft snow and the occasional cloud. As both days came to a close, my P2 cards had been filled and I knew I had something. Here’s the edit of what I came up with, hope you all enjoy it.

Under a Minute in Quik Park
Both Graeme and Pat from PYP were around Grouse Mountain over the holidays, filming and having a grand ol’ time. Check their latest edit featuring Spencer Watson and Liam Casey in the Quiksilver Park. A cameo appearance from Chuck to cap it all off as well!
Oh, speaking of Chuck, he’s ripped now. JEA boyyyy! Charlie “The Situation” Grinnell, ladies.

Oakley Night Jams The First
This past Friday, Grouse Mountain kicked off its annual free contest series, the Oakley Night Jams. The format this season differed from the Night Jams of past years in that there was a dedicated setup for the event where the Paradise Jib Park used to be. For the first jam of the season, that park crew had setup at 16 foot butter box, a downbar of equal or greater value and a C-rail set up in a semi circle with lips at both ends for your jibbing pleasure.
The jam started of slow as kids began to trickle slowly in from around the mountain. Our own Charlie Grinnell spread the word through the Quik Park and gathered bodies from all around. Coastal Riders was on hand as the shop sponsor for this first jam. With Charlie on the mic, things quickly got popping as he made sure the event was ski friendly this time around. Grouse Mountain local Brian Choi cleaned house on the ski side of things, so we’re banning him from the next jam. Just kidding. In any case, the skiers were killing it all night on all the features. Trint and Shayan repped hard for the boarders, but all you boarders need to step your game up in time for the next Oakley Night Jam on January 8th. Here are some pictures from Friday night.
