SUNDAY, JANUARY 29, 2012MONDAY, JANUARY 23, 2012![]() Aaron was always the driving force behind this project. When it seemed like things weren't gonna work out he always found a way to make it happen. He loved a challenge! I spent this last winter traveling around to many of his favorite places, meeting up with friends, and making some new ones along the way. I feel so lucky to have been able to share such great times with such an amazing person. When Aaron passed away in Chile this last July it was hard to even think about the movie, let alone sit down and edit hours of his footage from the winter. It wasn't until Blake Paul sent me an email highlighting the fact that one of Aaron's goals all season was to get everyone down to Chile and film a segment for the movie that I came to realize something that should have been so obvious. We had to head South and finish what he had started. Although we were physically missing the one person who really should have been on that trip I feel like he was actually with us more than ever. We'll miss you A-ROB! -Sam Tuor ![]() Here is a sneak peek of Gigi Rüf’s new project, Slash by Gigi. The new board brand is being produced by Nidecker and the initial line will include four different models including Gigi’s pro model and a pro model for Johnnie Paxson. ![]() Well, it is about time... It has been hammering snow all day here in Silverton, CO. The APX Cabin will be in prime shape for the next crew to roll through. ![]() Looks like the NW is getting some snow. If you could send some down South that would be great. Thanks ![]() Rather than let the En Route webisodes fade into the cyberworld mist, Nimbus has just released Aether. This mashup of footage allows you to relive some of greatest moments from Nimbus' 2010/11 season. Aether from NIMBUS INDEPENDENT on Vimeo. ![]() I love Dragon Mace goggles!
I have been rocking Mace’s for the past seven years and don’t see that changing anytime soon.
The 2011’-12 Maces are some of the best goggles on the market today. In fact, I feel that Dragon has one of the best goggle lineups anywhere with the Mace, APX and Rogue. That’s one killer grouping of goggles from just one company.

From the first of her three runs, O’Brian not only lifted the bar, but set the standard for the remainder of the finals. Her first run, a stomped, silky smooth frontside 720 nosebone to gapped lipslide had the web commentators on their feet and evidently also caught the imagination of the judges. Scoring an impressive 90.50 points out of a maximum possible 100. For the rest Click HERE. ![]() Check out the crew rolling around the mean streets of Park City, UT.
