Mammoth’s 3rd Annual West Coast Invitational

Thanks to Snowboard-Mag.com

First off I must apologize for slacking and not having a post up sooner. I know; it’s not like me or us at all. Here’s the thing. Something so random happened this weekend at the West Coast Invitational after party while Talib Kweli was performing on stage. While Pancho was holding my camera and showing me a “memory card full” message since we had taken more than 100 photos that night some crazy guy jumped on stage attempting to stage dive. Well literally within a split second security grabbed the dude and bro went flying off the stage landing directly on Pancho who’s like half this guy’s size. Anyway Pancho somehow survived but my camera did not. It went flying as well vanishing within seconds. So I’m putting the word out. Someone has my Canon digi cam with tons of rail jam and Talib Kweli party photos. We pulled some pics together for ya though, courtesy of Binky, and here’s a brief rundown of what went down at this year’s W.C.I. in Mammoth Lakes, CA.

Chris Grenier mobbin’ it before he got hurt.

April 1st at Breckenridge has become a huge party day for all the local shreds. Its sick to see the whole snowboard scene together on one day having what seems the most fun you could have on the mountain. Hunting down a good set of retro gear, setting you stance back, maybe cutting a swallow tail, spraying everyone and everything in sight, and slashing like all the old school shredders is what its all about. 
We were on the hill pretty early, the local holiday was still pretty low key but there was a good foot of fresh to be had. We headed directly for the T-bar and Imperial lift. After a short hike (around some very winded Welsh blokes) we had reached the summit of peak 8 with open powder fields in all directions. Once we had exhausted the new snow and some clouds rolled in we blasted our way to Park Lane. We were immediately surrounded by neon and snowblades, it was chaos. Constant soul trains with 2-4 people on a lip at any time, spread eagles, and the all mighty method were being thrown with screams of delight. 
 It was getting pretty dangerous in the park, after seeing more than a few wrecks we were thinking of calling it. Breck beat us to it. Soon the parks were closed to anyone wearing a “costume” and therefore empty except for the a few steezy shreders here and there, apparently the resort was not as stoked as the rest of us. Didn’t stick around to see the “gapers” unleashed on the rest of the mountain.

Growing up right outside of Boston doesn’t leave the aspiring shredder with too many options for after school shralping. Sure, you can build a sweet backyard park or hit some urban rails but what happens if you want to do some euro-carving? Thankfully for all the frothing rippers who live in the ‘burbs of boston, Blue Hills has you covered. With 309′ of vertical drop, 80% snowmaking and night riding, big blue is full equipped to handle everything you can throw at it.

A few riders and I drove down to Red Mountain pass to grab a few shots. Turned out that the snow was really baked. We managed to salvage a few spots before Jeff (Cormack) took a hit to the knee. With Partly torn LCL we drove back home.

Unknown shredder Jordan Morrisette is right on Kegan’s heels taking the flying squirrel urban.  

Damn Keegan came up with some never before done shit. He calls it the flying squirrel. I heard next year at the EXgames this could be a clincher. Trust The Possum and get extreme

my new set up! Woohoo! It’s sick!
