Backcountry hunt!

Check these backcountry monsters - Juuso Laivisto, Stian Solberg and Erik Botner who spend a majority of their season together in the US last year.

Follow them around on their hunt for perfect shots trough the woods and backcountry kickers. The pirates are going deep with these parts for the newest Pirate Movie Production, called Hooked. Juuso Laivisto flying over road at 04:42 ! Nice, ah?

Some chilling action from Jackson Hole to Tahoe and Baker and back....

Shaped Railbattle, Belgium !

It's a nice thing to have a closed-door snowboard park in your country, yes? (or even several).

If you like, than let's head over to Ice Mountain, an indoor slope located in Comines (Belgium), situated not too far from the French border for the last stop of the Get in Shape Tour.
This final stop took place last saturday, in a park specially tailored for the event. Here is the event's edit, with some Dutch rap from the band 'Jeugd Van Tegenwoordig' to top it all off..

The very special thing about this short movie is that you can actually see what kind of material the riders pants are made of while in air or giving you the slightest sense of human superpowers (having a slow-mo vision if you like :D) or how the wind slowly blows the park flags and ofcourse the chill music in the background.
