Sandy Beaches and Salted Rims
— boredyak.blogspot.com — I'm skipping town for Cancún kids. The ol' lady's celebrating a milestone and I have a free... place to stay. When I get back I'm hoping for snow on the mountain.

The Airblaster Movie
— boredyak.blogspot.com — Least creative title ever, not what you would expect from the Airblaster crew. The riding, however, is... exactly what you would expect. Fun resort runs, rad pow and hot rhythm section action (this time with trees!). They visited a host of foreign territories from Japan to South Korea to North ... (more) The Airblaster Movie

Ask for a B-Movie and That's What You Get
— boredyak.blogspot.com — Old habits die hard. I've gotten into this habit where I feel it's acceptable to drive three... hours to see a snowboard video. Even when I have no one to help with gas money. That's how badly I want to see some new snow footage. That's how badly I miss winter. Burton provided my fix this time. ...
