Un Rendez Vous

Guy Ritchie for Dior Homme. I’m curious to see what the other powerhouse’s have in store. If you haven’t seen Martin Scorcese’s “Bleu de Chanel” or Frank Miller’s “Gucci Guitly,” it appears celebrity director collaborations are running the new advertisement game.

Red Bull “Illume”

In any sport a generation, group or an individual will stand out in an iconoclastic matter and influence others to come. In this day and age, the people at Redbull have every right for that type of recognition in there involvement in the world of sports. Although they may have gotten society addicted to caffeine and craving them in even larger doses, we have them to thank for pushing the very limits of what is possible with their vast types of events around the world. In they’re most recent venture “Illume,” photographers all over the globe were challenged to capture amazing feats in various style categories in action/adventure sports. Below are some of the finalists (not in particular/pertaining order) categories: Close up, Energy, Experimental, Illumination, Culture, New Creativity, Playground, Sequence, Spirit, Wings.

Well the cold has descended upon us again or at least some seriously moody clouds, and in celebration of this display of weather I am overdosing on snowboard teasers. Also thanks to Fred’s amazing post below of Yosemite, I am officially jones’n for some magnificent mountain days. For now these high quality video teasers of outstanding shredding will have to do.

The Arena

for all of the smack and vibe that surrounds the MFM, I gotta give em props on standing and delivering over and over. Each year he brings out a solid group of shredders with a creative approach. THis year is looking to top all others. DIe hard for sure. Plus i think he represents a mindset in snowboarding that will always be true to the core, “hey, check me out. i’m better than you.”
