Snowpark Technologies, the designers and builders of custom snowboard parks for Burton, Winter X Games, Oakley, and Red Bull announced today that they have hired former Mammoth Mountain Action Spsorts Brand Manager Josh Chauvet as their Resort Program Marketing Director.
“Josh returns to the SPT family during a period of growth and change for our brand,” said Chris “Gunny” Gunnarson, SPT’s President. “In the past, Josh was instrumental in the development of the SPT Park Program. Over the years, the program has evolved and as we embark on a new chapter with our SPT partner resorts, and with our increased focus on company-wide marketing initiatives, he is a welcomed addition to the team.”
“This is a great opportunity for ourselves and our advertisers to bring frequency TSJ to new audiences,” says Publisher Jeff Galbraith. “It’s been a long while in development and it’s been worth it. Holding off on producing another web flip-book in deference for a real product in keeping with our brand was a good call. This is a true complement to the ten-year legacy of frequency TSJ.”

Bear Mountain will kick off the 2012-13 SoCal winter season the same way they have from the past eight years–with a huge party, fresh snow, and monstrous rails, walls, and other features. The 9th Annual Hot Dawgz & Hand Rails goes down September 22, 2012 beginning at 2 PM.

Volcom Snow is letting the kids do their own video parts with #IP2. And this is Daniel Brown’s turn. Here’s what VeeCo says about the project:
IP2 stands for “Individually Produced Parts” . Whereas, each rider has 100% control of the direction, action and content collected to produce their own part for Volcom’s 2012 Snow project. We identified the riding characteristics of our team, matched them up with a videographer and gave them the green light. We are excited to share their personalities, travel experiences and shit they pulled off this past season.
In addition to hitting the streets pretty hard, it appears that Mr. Brown also has a serious appreciation for hip-hop, weed and tittiies.
Every single company that makes snowboards and/or snowboard products now appears proud to announce the launch of their New 2012/13 lines of products. It’s all new, all great, and all up for viewing online.
Some are “kicking it off with a brand new site” others are “launching into an already award winning season with their 2012/2013 snowboard line-up.”
“According to our developers our new website features what is purportedly the latest in expensive web technologies,” they say. “We have seamlessly integrated Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram into our entire online presence making our continued social media dialog with customers completely transparent and stuff. To say that we have embraced mobile would be an understatement. We’re soul kissing mobile. Our new Android, iPhone and iPad are blowing minds.”
Rather than putting up all the press releases we’re just going to do it this once. Remember: It’s all new, all great, and all up for viewing online. Check it all out on your favorite brands’ websites today. Click the links and dive in. Yay!
Jussi Oksanen tells his side of the snowboarding movie making business in Burton 13: The Fourth Trailer.
Everybody is always helping each other and making sure, if I get a shot then I’m just going to chill and help Mikey get his shot. That’s far more important than me getting five shots on one jump. If you get shots, obviously it’s going to make you feel better, but a long as somebody is getting rad shots, that’s what it’s all about.
Nighttime temperatures continue to drop at Mammoth Mountain, and the lingering chill every morning can only mean one thing- Opening Day is right around the corner! Time to dust off the . . . boards, because the lifts start running on November 8!
We can guarantee that it doesn’t look like this at Mammoth now, but come November there will certainly be enough snow to slide on (white ribbon of . . . ). Mark you calendars, book a bargain room, and be shred ready.
