From the looks of this Neffland Episode 1 it would appear that Park City finally got some snow. Hope it stays around for awhile because this setup looks fun. At least Blaze Kostenburg, Sage Kostenburg, Brandon Hobush, Stevie Bell, Zack Hale and Dylan Thompson make it look that way.

Things must be right with the world if the final results from FIS World Cup Sprint US Grand Prix Snowboarding from Copper Mountain on January 11, 2013 are any judge.
Jamie Anderson and Chas Guldemond took their rightful places at the top of the podium by huge margins. Chas was 12 points ahead of second place, Finland’s Roope Tonteri. And Anderson took her event by nine points over Norway’s Kjersti Buaas.
Guldemond even took one for the team. “My first run was for the U.S. Snowboarding team and my second run was for me,” Guldemond said. “As always I try to have a good time snowboarding no matter what. It feels so good to be on top and start the Olympic qualifying period. It’s my goal to continue this success to the best of my abilities. . . I have really been working hard to perfect my run and it is going well so far, I am happy with how my dub 12 is coming together.”
Anderson, who wins pretty much everything she enters still finds a way to sound surprised, which is nice. “This has all been unreal, I feel so lucky,” Anderson said. “Thirteen is my lucky number, I was born on the 13th and there are 13 letters in my name so I would like to think this good vibe will keep going through.

Daniel Rajcsanyi is a snowboarder from Munich, Germany. He is also reportedly “openly gay,” according to a story on Outsports.com. Dani wanted to enter a video for Nike’s Chosen competition so he filmed himself hitting a rail to stairs naked. The video (which is NSFW) is aptly titled German Sausage.
“I wanted to make a funny thing out of snowboarding. It was a provocation for the ‘freestyle’ scene. I wanted to change the bourgeois thinking and show the total freedom and fun of snowboarding, which should be the main thing.” He said he does not know of any other openly gay snowboarders and hopes that with the video he “made a little step forward.”
We never saw this edit featured in any Nike Chosen marketing, so we’re guessing it didn’t win (his other videos however did quite well and actually won in Austria, according to Nike). If you’d like to see Dani’s German Sausage edit, follow the jump. [click to continue…]
