Doing the Summer Dew

Posted by Mike on Jul 26, 2009 in Friends, Travel

Last winter I did some freeskiing coverage for allisports.com, the official media outlet of all things Winter and Summer Dew Tour. This past weekend some kind friends from the editorial department invited me down for the first ever Skate Open in Boston. While I know very little about skateboarding, I do know that Boston is a good time. Highlights included:

  • partying with Horn and Collies. Always good to see you cats!
  • hanging out with the staff from Alli, both old and new. These folks work their tails off to make things happen. Thanks guys. Check out my festival recap here.
  • the media center was in the Away team’s locker room at the Garden. In other words, I wrote my articles in the same room Kobe Bryant has a melt down after the Celtics won the title. How good is that?
  • meeting P-Rod. What a genuine and super cool guy. I’m always happy to know there’s good guys like that in other aspects of action sports. Oh, and he’s a G (see Nike ad below)
  • hearing about all the exciting stuff planned for season 2 of Winter Dew. Stoked for the finals at Mount Snow! Ski The East team is taking over.

Here’s a few photos from the Dew Tour:

Killington’s Last Stand

Posted by Mike on May 4, 2009 in Friends, office, skiing

Saturday, the Meats and I headed to Killington to film bumps and enjoy the last day of the season in style. I sported some gym shorts, a Keith Hernadez tshirt, and a Styx bandana while the boys decided to rock memorable one piece suits. Sunshine, moguls, and beers in the parking lot. Can’t beat that.

So Long Jibij

Posted by Mike on Apr 30, 2009 in Friends, Travel, skiing

After years of being Boulder’s premiere and core ski shop, my good friend Josh Bryant is deciding to close his doors. Josh is stoked to venture into something new and I know he’ll do a great job wherever his future endeavors may take him.

Best of luck my friend!

Aspen Extreme - Freeskier Party

Posted by Mike on Jan 24, 2009 in Friends, Travel

As some of you know, I broke into the ski industry with Freeskier.com. The boys were kind enough to house me for two days in Boulder and also throw Erica and I on the guest list for their epic party here in Aspen. Epic it certainly was with live entertainment, Sal Masakela, dancing, and cocktails. Here’s four of my favorite photos from the party. For more, head over to Freeskier.com and peep the glory. Thanks Freeskier.
