With all the coverage today regarding Shaun White Supply Co. and it’s soon-to-launch signature line of China crap we were surprised that no one mentioned the one new Shaun product that is made here in America: toilet paper.
Shaun White may wipe his ass with crisp hundred dollar bills, but it’s comforting to know that he understands that the other 99 percent of us don’t. That’s apparently why he’s reportedly releasing his new triple-ply line of Shaun Wipe Xtreme bathroom tissue.
Rumor has it that he will roll out (and demonstrate) his new personal hygiene product immediately prior to his vert run in the Caffeinated High Fructose Corn Syrup Championships presented by Go Kill Elephants Daddy in Las Vegas the weekend of October 13-16, 2011. And seriously, we can’t wait to watch him wipe out the competition.

This is the trailer for the new Jeremy Jones movie Further.
Drawing upon a lifetime of experience Jones seeks out first descents and exotic experiences in an effort to evolve not only his snowboarding, but himself. The relationships forged from isolation and travel are almost as intriguing as the maniacal descents themselves. Join Jeremy and his crew in the Arctic Circle, Japan, the High Sierra and the remote Pickett Range among others as they push their minds and bodies Further.
The film features: Jeremy Jones, Terje Haakonsen, Xavier De Le Rue, DCP, Nicolas Müller, Lucas Debari, Josh Dirksen, Forrest Shearer, and Ryland Bell. And as Jones says, “It’s kind of the next step.” We believe him.

ESPN: The Magazine has posted a few teaser photos of naked athletes from their Body Issue that hits news stands on Friday, October 7, 2011. And Gretchen Bleiler is not only in the magazine, but on one of the covers as well.
“The nude thing is interesting at first. You’re like ‘Really I’m going to just take it off.’ It just gets more and more comfortable. Especially on a day like today,” Bleiler says. “It was nuking out there and I felt bad for everyone who had clothes on. I was the one who was lucky on a day like today. It’s a huge honor to be grouped in with some of the most amazing and skilled athletes in the world. Celebrating Men, women. Every different kind of body, every different kind of sport and showing that everything is beautiful in a very athletic way. I want to be strong and I want to be badass and I think we accomplished that.”
We’d have to agree. Mrs. Hotel is looking fit, especially when you flash back to her first pinup outing in FHM. Follow the jump for the video and magazine cover.

While we still don’t believe we’ve ever seen anyone under 45 using an iPad in the wild (fie to you obnoxious moms using iPads to snap photos of your kids at the beach), apparently Vans has. Why else would they put the time and effort into creating their new Off the Wall TV iPad app? Here’s what they say about it:
Off the Wall TV iPad app, delivers Vans’ offthewall.tv video network of exclusive, original action sports, music, art and street culture programming to millions of iPad users around the world. . . [users are] now able to enjoy offthewall.tv anywhere with the easy to use app.
The app (which is free in the iTunes store) features all the content from the offthewall.tv website. So, the next time you’re over at you aunt’s house, grab her iPad and load this thing up. It’s probably pretty cool. Not that we’d know.

Eddie Wall and Peter Line will be premiering their newest snowboard film The Peddie Files at Vestal Headquarters in Costa Mesa, California on Friday evening, October 14, 2011 at 8 PM. But don’t come expecting a video filled with naked children. No, no, no. This is a snowboard video. Sure, they could have just called their movie Walline, but then we wouldn’t have gotten all this Google search traffic.
Vestal is located at 730 West 17th Street, Costa Mesa, California.
