For this month’s Every Third Thursday the Signal Snowboards crew clicked deeply into the Call Of Duty: Black Ops 2 world to deliver a “bona-fide bulletproof Snowboard.” You know, for the times you’re caught in the crossfire and you need a little cover. We haven’t seen this much blood in a snowboard edit since RedSnow.

This little clip of Peter Devries and Noah Cohen getting into some cold Canadian ramps is called Birds of a Feather. It’s from the Sitka Surfboards crew up in the wilds of Canadalandia. Our fingers are numb just from watching this. But it was worth it.

Have to admit it, these Supra Backwoods by Prodigy of Mob Deep look like the perfect after-shred sneaks.
The “Infamous” Backwood is a work boot/athletic-shoe hybrid constructed atop a unique sole that has a lightweight and comfortable SUPRAFOAM midsole with a rugged, rubber lug outsole. Prodigy designed the upper with grey suede camouflage and black ballistic nylon.
Warm, grippy, stylie. What else you want? Follow the jump for the official word from Supra. [click to continue…]

Spy, The Seventh Letter, and international graffiti artist Pose worked together to create this color way for Spy’s Platoon snowboard goggle.
“We provided Pose the blank canvas of the Platoon and let him take full advantage,” says Brent Sandor, SPY brand manager. “The SPY + Pose sharpie that comes with it is the icing on the cake.” . . Pulling graphics from several large scale paintings, the SPY + The Seventh Letter + Pose Platoon bleeds his trademark graffiti style on both the inside and outside of the goggle strap, is accented with raised, sign painter inspired 3D patches and carries the Pose seal of approval in the form of his signature logo emblazoned onto the lens.
SPY + The Seventh Letter + POSE retails for $150 and comes with a “fully sublimated microfiber pouch and a free yellow bonus lens” for those super stormy days. For the official word from Spy, follow the jump. [click to continue…]

In one of their most recent steps toward becoming a big, old, new media snowboarding super site Yobeat.com has announced the promotion of their intern Justin Thomas Moulthrop Leveille a.k.a. “Stan, Young Mountain Baby, J Money the Mountain Man, Weekend Warrior, Terry Dactyl, Mr. Anonymous, Hansu Weith and Tech” to the position of Managing Editor.
Leveille will assist in content curation and creation, as well as providing entertainment and herbal refreshment at the office. He will continue to exploit his brainchild the Toeside Terrors, as well as starring in “Thursdays at the Office.” His varied skills and complete willingness to make a fool of himself on a snowboard and on camera were the perfect addition to the crew. . . “Basically I knew Justin was a keeper when my sister, who was on the UVM Snowboard Team with him, said he was ‘Not an idiot.’ That’s the kind of skill set we look for at Yobeat,” YoBeat publisher and Editor-in-Chief Brooke Geery said.
We’re wondering if this promotion has anything to do with Geery’s recent “employment upgrade” at a local Portland cobbler. Follow the jump for the official word from Yobeat. [click to continue…]

So it’s November and the action Internets of the world are all aflutter with the new Reef calendar. This document is full of hot ass, asses, ass in the water, ass out of the water, and ass next to the water. Several of the asses even have heads, fewer still have faces. If hot ass is your thing, then Reef certainly has the hot ass calendar for you.
This year’s collection of monthly ass-attacks is reportedly: “. . . dedicated to the welcoming people of Ecuador, particularly the government and local people of San Cristobal, for their warm hospitality and enthusiasm in collaboration on this project.” Apparently the people of Ecuador enjoy ass as much as the next guy.

Stoked Mentoring rounded up a large group of surfers and friends and spent last Saturday (November 10, 2012) helping to clean up at Beach 67 Street in Rockaway Park, according to a story on The Local.
High school students, volunteers and organizers — all members of the Stoked Mentoring non-profit family — descended on the beach community with cleaning supplies, tools and hundreds of meals in lieu of longboards, working through the day to bring relief to the residents of their favorite surf spot. . . “We have a relationship with Far Rockaway. We’re the first and only non-profit to take kids surfing in Rockaway,” said Mr. Larosiliere, known to many as “Stoked Steve.”
