Flux Friday!

It’s been a long week but we have finally made it to Friday!

We started out the week with Bear Mountain’s ‘Sunday in the park’ featuring a few shots from Flux rider Chad Tarbell. Keoni was also out there sporting his fresh TT30s.  Were stoked to see what comes around this Sunday funday. CLICK HERE TO SEE EPISODE 2 OF SUNDAY IN THE PARK. 

 

One way to get rid of that case of the Monday’s is to tune into Mark ass Mondays.  This week’s episode has some on mountain mischief and some secret spot rail shinnanigans.  The Tarbells tear up the jib pipe that was just put in at Bear. Have you seen it yet? Yupp…It’s a lot of fun…..

Eric Willett made his way across the seas to Beijing, China!  If you haven’t seen this huge set-up in the Olympic Birdsnest you should really check out this footage. CLICK HERE to see that crazy, huge, Chinese,  wild jump they call The Shaun White Big Air Competition. Congratulations on making it to the 2nd round in Beijing, Eric!! Watch some of the video here:

 

Can you tell which one is Eric?

 

Jaeger Bailey and Mitch Richmond have staked their spot in Mammoth for the season. We are stoked for them to shred the enormous, pow-filled wonderland.  They already came out with this epic edit of the first few shred sessions. CLICK HERE TO SEE IT!! If they are doing this kind of stuff now… imagine where they will be in a few months!

 

Geoff Brown is riding the Flux DS30s to take on the mountain’s up in Canada this season.  Check out his website to see videos and photos of Geoff: www.geoffbrownsnow.com

When we asked him about his whip he said– “My stance is centered, 24’’ wide, 18 degrees in the front and -24 in the back. Yup it is a weird stance but it works for me!”

 

Lynn Niel has been spending her preseason getting rad in Colorado.  Lynn and her friends at Wasatch Project made this edit of what we are missing out on…..

FLUX FRIDAY!

Feliz de Friday Flux Fans!  It is the last day of September and we are officially falling into Fall–the season between summer livin and winter wonderland– the season of waiting.  Autumn is the time to amp up, gear up, and start seriously thinking about snowboarding.

Flux riders Erik Leon and Ian Sams took a trip last season from Crestline, CA to Stevens Pass, WA and back— known only as Van Delirium.  It was wild…it was trippy…and I wouldn’t expect anything less from these guys.  They are awesome.  On the Van Delirium, they contemplated– ”Why do we snowboard? Why do we care why we snowboard? If we care about why we snowboard, then are we really focusing on what matters most? What does matter the most? Why wouldn’t we just go snowboarding for the sake of snowboarding?”

So, for the sake of snowboarding… this is episode 1 of their trip :

Didn’t we say these guys are awesome?  So awesome that Ian won $25,000 in the SME video contest that was announced at Hot Dawgs last weekend!!  A big congrats goes out to him– he will be livin cheesy this winter! Check out the video that got him the win by CLICKING HERE!

Besides winning more cash than the actual winners of the contest– Ian laid down some gnarly tricks at Hot Dawgs.  The weather was perfect, the set up was huge, and Flux riders were killing it.  If you didn’t make it, the event was very well documented.  Snowboarder Magazine and Transworld Snowboard Magazine all captured the moment well, while we got some sweet shots of our Flux team.  Stay tuned for the video–coming soon.

Yuma Abe and Kataro Kamimura flew out from Japan just for Hot Dawgs—Why weren’t you there?

Jaeger Bailey was head over heels about his first ever Hot Dawgs experience….

So was Cody Boan…..  Newly rockin the RK30s.

Chris Brewster came all the way from Alaska and showed us some tricks that made his “Ammo” part especially epic.

Scotty Vine, Scotty Vine… always a good time…

 

On the otherside of the globe, the YES crew premiered their movie in Chile and Jake Koia premiered “Given’s, ‘One.’”  in his hometown of Queenstown.  The movies was just as good there as it was here… but they were in a these rad places and  just had more Red Bulls. Looks like it got wild.  Check out Jake’s Blog and this wrap up video….

 

 

 

 

FLUX FRIDAY!

Happy Friday Flux Fans!!!

If you haven’t heard of the annual Hot Dawgs and Handrails–going down tomorrow– you must be living on a different planet!

Tomorrow at Bear Mountain, they are pulling in tons and tons and tons of snow to make a sweet snow set up.  Invited riders like Chris Brewster, Scotty Vine, Jaeger Bailey, Chad Tarbell, Ryan Tarbell, and Ian Sams all get to take on the set up for a chance to win $15,000!!

This October, keep and eye out for Arbor’s film ‘Van Delirium.’

Flux riders Ian Sams, Erik Leon, and Scotty Vine adventured to Washington and back and caught some wild footie on the way.

My favorite part is the lady at the end of this teaser walking her boyfriend on a leash.

Looks like its going to be a trip……

Fluxing Fantastic….

This past weekend, snowboarders took over the OC as “Given” was premiered in Laguna Beach Friday, September 16.  A lot of people came out to the old theater to watch some good old fashion snow slashin and ridiculous rail riding.

Snow movies should play in theaters more often–everyone was having a good time.

A big congratulations goes out to Zac Marben for having a wildly successful first art show!    From the small detailed doodles of black pen on white paper, to the big brush strokes of some of his larger pieces—Zac’s creative energy shown through!  A definite favorite was his enlarged polaroid photos on a wood backing.   Zacs art, set alongside some awesome musicians, a vibin crowd and complementary brews was a great time! Keep the art alive Zac!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Jordan Michilot and Matty Mo are really workin it in this film,– “Working for the City.”   You can watch and enjoy the full film here! 

Do you know how to party? You should take some lessons from these guys.  Laying it down in the indoor course. Check out some of our Japanese riders in this video….

So, are you ready to party? Come bring in the upcoming season at Hot Dawgs and Handrails this Saturday, September 24th at BEAR MOUNTAIN!  Flux riders, Chris Brewster, Ryan Tarbell, Ian Sams, Jaeger Bailey, Chad Tarbell, and Scotty Vine will all be riding in the contest.  You wont want to miss it!
