    Dear Sessions, Bring Back The Goofy Footed Coat. Thanks.

    The storm flap on men’s snowboard jackets always closes to the right.  Pretty much every jacket out there does.  If you didn’t notice this then you’re probably regular footed.  If you’re a goofy footer then you’re probably well aware of this.  LAME. Say for example you’re hauling ass, clearly ignoring those SLOW signs at your [...]

    Best Snowboard Video Soundtrack

    Snowboard video soundtracks could be the most important part of the video.  Sick riding, clever camera work, artsy fartsy stuff is important…but if you slap some weak-ass track over all that hard work…forget it–it’s forgotten.  Picking the right tune can make the video timeless. For example,  Absinthe Film’s Transcendence which came out in 2001, right [...]

    Review: Rob Machado in The Drifter

    Taylor Steele’s The Drifter staring Rob Machado doesn’t follow the typical format of surf flicks out these days.

    Word Hole Trauma

    Have you ever been surfing, paddled out and nailed a wave immediately after reaching the lineup?  Makes ya feel like hot shiz, huh?.  “Yeah, i know what i’m doing.  I’ll take this wave right here….”  And then that’s the only wave you get for the whole session.  I hate it when that happens.  That’s what [...]
