Also this week: How to pronounce Obergurgl...

9. It's off the hook in Obergurgl

Obergurgl is a tricky word to pronounce, but it's essentially the sound that someone makes in the short gap between vomits.

That's how you do it, and here are the dangers of just following the guy in front:

5. New Snowboardable Architecture via Europaconcorsi





 The idea here is that the pad in the landing uses the kinetic energy to power the building. 

The only drawback I can see is that with a flat landing like that, they'll be entirely reliant on Mikey LeBlanc producing all the energy.

4. The 80s summed up in a single poster


The word "epic" has never been more epitomized in Core77's reissue of this 80s poster for Dutch poster company Verkerke by Fernando Agudelo. Airbrush illustration suitable for the side of a teardrop window custom van? Check. Cosmic rings? Check! Ferocious great white, teeth and gums awash in the blood of a fresh kill? Check! Fiery haired muscle bound surfer dude riding said shark with bolts of gleaming lightning crackling at his fingertips? CHECK! This illustration has it all! The only question that remains is if you're epic enough to hang it on your wall. Also epically cheap!
