I got invited to a day at Australia’s smallest resort for the semi-opening of their new Big Air Bag. The management want to turn the entire mountain into a park. For a place as small as this with such a limited window, it’s a pretty big deal. www.mountbawbaw.com.au

Season just started here, try and give you guys an insight to whats happening over here

Yeah, WTF? We thought when we created this program we’d get sponsor reels coming in on the daily – too many for Frankie to keep track of. Don’t you want to blow up? Well, here’s the idea. We’re thinking of trying to put together an edit of all you guys doing what you do, where you do it. Now, we know most of you have your own crews in your zones and that most of you’re A-footy is therefore locked down for your video parts, and we respect that. In fact, we’re really stoked on that… But we thought it would be cool to get you out there even more with an NWO team video that ends up on Burton.com, a bunch of other snow media sites and all the really hip blogs, and in (the appropriate) shops all over the world!

hot stuff here!!!

So, all you need to do is send us as much of your raw footage as possible so we can put together an edit of the crew. It’s that simple. Don’t have access to you’re A-Footy? Send us your B reel. We’ll Photoshop out the sketch. Remember, we need it in raw files so we can edit it. Send it to:

Frankie Chapin
Burton Snowboards
80 Industrial Parkway
Burlington Vermont
05401

By 7/31. That’s it. Don’t blow it.

If you’re going to be in or around the Mt. Hood area this summer, please let us know so we can hook you up with passes so you can get your shred on for free.

bitchin!

Pretty much all of the snow is gone wherever you go.  The few of you that live in zones with year round snow are stoked, those of you who don’t are probably trying to figure out ways to get to where the snow is.  Help each other out, find the homies that live in Oregon or wherever and convince them to let you crash with them, head to Whistler, head to the Glaciers in Europe or the snow-domes of Holland, find it, shred it, and document it!

We’d be stoked if you guys would update the crew where you’re at for the summer through this Blog, upload some skate photos, shows you go to, photos of the babes you hang with, places you chill, vacations, bike rides, bars, skate spots, whatever!  We do keep tabs of who is staying involved and who isn’t..  *hint hint*

Be easy!
