What tricks did you do?
I did all the tricks I wanted to, mostly just kept hitting the down flat down and tried doing a bunch of tricks on that. My favorite was 50-50 back 270 boardslide to fakie.
What board did you ride?
I rode the 150 street series which is one of my favorite boards.
How wide is your stance?
A little skinnier than average, I ride it like that because it is how I feel the most comfortable snowboarding, it makes it more like skating.
What are you going to do next?
Headed back to Tahoe for thanksgiving, then to Vt to hang out with my mom, and do rails to riches.
You are not 21 what did you do after the BYB?
Ate a ton of pizza and a huge Cake, thank you Joe and Zach.
Did that mustache help?
It always helps, snowboarding and picking up ladies.
Michelle was in the Backyard Bang, here is a little rundown…
The setup was really impressive. I had fun boardsliding on the boxes and challenging myself on the kink rail. A lot of my roommates from Mt.Hood this summer came out for it and it was fun to compete against them. The boys were killing it and the girls were pushing each other to try harder tricks.It was very cool that the contest was able to be right in the middle of Denver, this allowed many spectators who normally don’t get to watch snowboarding contests experience the action. This contest has made me excited for the Campus Rail Jam Tour which will be coming to my school in a few months. -Michelle
I put together a short edit of some shots from a snowstorm that passed through Colorado last week. I’m working on a longer early season edit, but thought a little sneak peak would be cool.

Nick Ennen had a great year at Stevens Pass riding the park and taking it to the backcountry. He talks about some of the highlights of the season riding with the How the Northwest Was One crew.

Shot of Max from the Backyard Bang in Portland on Halloween. He made finals, which was awesome. There were maybe 45 guys or so, and they took 10 to finals. But it’s all good, it was a super fun event with good features and a fun vibe.
Think snow!
