Or sitting here in front of my computer... watching people view this simplistic creative masterpiece? Who wins? Genius.

JP Auclair – Avalanche

[iDevice Link] <— 0 views. After consulting with JP Auclair on the soon to be released Alpine Initiatives website – I began sorting through the masses of media we used to share back and forth.

This video amazed me back in 2005 and it still amazes me today. Shot in April, 2005 while skiing little goat in Haines Alaska. After I acknowledge he could be dead, JP recalls…

“hmm.. hard to say.. Seth was on top behing me.. so I’m sure he would have got to me in time.”

Even with someone like Seth Morrison who is exceptionally talented in the backcountry, I don’t think I would like to get caught in an avalanche.

Jim Hancock Sighting

[iDevice Link] <— 322 views Whenever you get an opportunity to see Jim Hancock - and not his shadow... you know it is going to be a good day. Here we have the 2010 Race of Champions in Düsseldorf where Sebastian Vettel uses his RB6 Formula 1 Red Bull car to create a series of wall art. I will personally ask Jim where these are going to be auctioned off this year and inform.

HYDLE – Skiing Day #1 – (Winter Park Opening Day)

[iDevice Link] <— 0 views. I managed to make it up by 3:00pm for 2 runs and 3 beers. The snow is fantastic and Mary Jane is expected to open on Saturday.

“Warren Miller… for 86 years that man has known what’s up. Get your ass out of the office – pack your car – ride a bus – carpool – get your ass to the mountains.”

Two things to note…
1) Monday – Thursday: Pass holders get $1 off beers (Blue Moon, Mary Jane, Coors Light, Coors O) at the Sunspot Bar and you can get a burger and a beer for $10.

2) Happy hour at the Derailer bar from 2:00pm – 4:00pm is fantastic. Cheap food specials + $2.50 Coors Lights + O’s.

Get your mountains on.

Square for iPhone – by Chris OConnell

[iDevice Link] <— 22,727 views A nice revisit to a good friend doing good things. I asked Chris back in May when he posted this video what he was possibly thinking about when he conceptualized this idea...

“Just trying to push the limits of extreme, I wanted to do something that hadn’t been done before. I consider this accomplishment as important as the invention of the internet, or even television for that matter.”

Genius.

Andy Irons Memorial :(

This is not the original… don’t know why they would have pulled it down. A little upset over it, but I will post a replacement.

“LeBron James asks for advice. In this spot, James seems to only stir up the antipathy that was directed toward him around his overly-publicized move to Miami. Doth he protest too much?”

Wieden + Kennedy Portland are still at it.
Basketball – welcome back.
