I watched the olympics halfpipe shit last night, honestly that stuff is so boring. But I guess so are most skateboarding competitions too relative to the type of skateboarding I like.
I went to a free snowboard video premiere last month for the first Vans video. It was like the "official" world premiere in Denver because it was the ski and snowboard expo that weekend, complete with all the riders there and Dino Jr. playing a show after. It was actually pretty sick. Got me hyped to snowboard and skate kinda. Not really any lame ballerina spin shit, and a lot of unique street shit.
The one thing I thought was odd is that there were a ton of shots that seemed to be a similar style to Greg Hunt/Propeller even though I'm sure he had nothing to do with it. Also I feel like snowboarders try to appropriate skateboarder culture in what they wear, but hey if they support Lakai while wearing like GNU or whatever snowboard company more power to Lakai.
