Really don’t know how we missed this one. Maybe it’s because we never watch Larry King Now. But 48 Block alerted us to this interesting interview with Rob Dyrdek. In the interview we realized that there is no getting around it: Rob Dyrdek lives his life and makes things happen.

SMI Snow Makers, a family run, Michigan based company, has set up massively technical snowmaking facilities in Sochi, Russian to make certain that there is enough snow Winter Olympics. With setup that looks more like NASA Mission Control and 400 snow guns, SMI is going to make it happen, according to this edit from National Geographic. And as these are the “most expensive Olympics” ever, we’re hoping SMI gets their monster slice.

How long before all this RC helicopter drone footage gets boring? Probably next week when every single GoBro is buzzing his Hero 3+ around every corner of the world. Remember the Matrix shot?

Danny Davis did a wicked job of holding it down in the finals of the Winter X Pipe last night (Sunday, January 25, 2014) and slipped away with a well deserved gold medal. His first. Yes, Iouri Podladtchikov continually got underscored for not landing the YOLO flip, and it would have been more fun to see Shaun White in the mix, but aside from that it was a good show.
For a complete, compact, and easy to view compilation of snowboarding results from the X Games, follow the jump. [click to continue…]

We’re no fans of Justin Bieber, however, when the kid had his house searched and violated by nearly a dozen LA County Sheriff’s officers last week simply because the Biebs was accused of “throwing eggs at a neighbor’s house,” we’re glad he’s left SoCal and getting in some quality shred time at Aspen. Seriously. We’re living in a total police state these days. It’s crazy!
