Red Bull have just <a href="http://www.redbull.com/en/snow/stories/1331732854272/world-record-longest-rail-slide-basti-rittig" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">posted</a> what they are claiming to be a world record rail slide, but they're kinda lying and it's really just PR bullshit...<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
They start out by bigging up the new record attempt while cattily having a swipe at the old (current) record.<br />
<br />
<i>"A couple of months ago, we reported on the Nitro crew’s latest project: to not only break a 2011 world record for the longest rail slide on a snowboard (78.70m), but to do it on a significantly more difficult and legitimate rail setup."</i><br />
<br />
As if the legitimacy of a record like this is anything anybody actually gives a shit about, and by doing it on a slightly different type of rail makes this silly record any less silly.<br />
<br />
Here's the video of the most recent attempt:<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
Now here's where the lad touches down on the rail...<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
I make that a 76m long rail slide, not the full 84m and that's a fair bit short of the 78.70m record. Using that method to calculate distance, I just need to find an 85m long rail and hop onto the end and I'll be the new record holder.<br />
<br />
Here's the original (and still current) record...<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
There's 15,753km of rail tracks in the UK, and they're all linked together at some point. I'm heading out now to find a level crossing to ride across and absolutely destroy this new bullshit record. </div>

Every so often I forget I don't have the patience to design posters, then a I start on a new one...<br />
<a name='more'></a></div>
<div>
<br />
While I've been running this blog I've also occasionally produced the odd bit of snowboard art, that tries not to look like snowboard art, so it can sneak in to places it would not usually be seen. This time I thought I'd start what could potentially be a series of gig posters for significant events in snowboard history. This is the first and only one of that series until I forget what a massive ball-ache designing them is and start the next one.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<br /></div>
<div>
It's Mike Basich's awesome heli drop, and if for some reason you're not familiar with it skip to 22:30 in the video below and let him tell you all about it. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: start;">It's the bit just after he jibs this enormous stubby metal penis. </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Anyway it's 22.30 for the heli drop, or just watch the whole thing for lots more good stuff...</div>

We've got a shiny new Facebook page, because some chopper decided to throw his toys out the pram and mess up the old one.

Funny stance really for a guy with a girl's name for a surname.

For the last two years a couple of snowboarders from Toronto have been cobbling together this game. I managed to blag a test version...<br />

I first saw some of the artwork about a year ago which caught my attention and I've been keeping an eye on the development since then. Feast your eyes on some of these screenshots as the world cycles through night and day and different weather conditions.<br />

Glad they decided not to go for a Go-Pro selfie aesthetic. </div>
<br />
<br />
Here's what the developers have to say about their handiwork:<br />
<br />
<i>"As snowboarders ourselves, we weren’t satisfied with any of the snowboarding games in the App Store. Most of them are cartoony, have bad controls, or are trying too much to be like console games.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>We wanted to capture the essence of snowboarding. That feeling of a great flow. Something fluid, fun, and natural feeling. That feeling you get when it’s just you against the mountain, alone in nature.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>We also wanted to build something that we ourselves wanted to play. Something fun for for people who snowboard. We spent a lot of time carefully crafting all of the terrain elements, so they worked in harmony with each other. We didn’t want to just stick your typical looking jump here and there and call it a day – we wanted to build terrain that’s fun to ride."</i><br />
<br />
I'm not convinced it replicates the feel of snowboarding, but it's a really good game and I'd recommend it.<br />
<br />
Here's the trailer...<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Wk5JupHelAg" width="560"></iframe></div>
<br />
Now they've finished it off and the game will be released on the Apple App store tomorrow. <a href="http://www.altosadventure.com/" target="_blank">Here's their website</a><br />
<br />
Enough of this, I've got llamas to round up.<br />

During the early growth phase of snowboarding one of the significant moments was when an article about the little-known sport appeared in the the February 1978 edition of Playboy. Disappointingly it had nothing to do with the drugs and sports headline on the front page, or the outer-space sex headline for that matter..,<br />

Here's the article from the <a href="http://www.mashf.com/Snurfing%201978.htm" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Muskegon Area Sports Hall of Fame archive</a> featuring Wintersticks, Snurfers and monoskis.<br />

Just got back from a week in Mayrhofen. It snowed a hell of a lot which kept me very busy, destroyed my thighs and sidetracked me from collecting enough crap for a full blog post. That aside, here are the top 5 things we did find this time...<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />

I spotted another truck with Wanker on the side but wasn't swift enough with the camera. It turns out that most of the world's Wankers can be found in the Tyrol.<br />

For Vic Wild & Alena Zavarzina the answer has been a plethora of strange photoshoots<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6w_xiNcRdl_7ZcBqiDf48osHNR-qsemkZNCDruwKFGbfAGeNRb4UB6KQM1MlIFgTMww7pdj5eerAXNmfR-zVkuBv4tvgzg8S5VUnV8aTkx3hNsPFMwjnEHRU7MjFSaJrCd3iktWFogm4/s1600/zavarzina17102014-4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6w_xiNcRdl_7ZcBqiDf48osHNR-qsemkZNCDruwKFGbfAGeNRb4UB6KQM1MlIFgTMww7pdj5eerAXNmfR-zVkuBv4tvgzg8S5VUnV8aTkx3hNsPFMwjnEHRU7MjFSaJrCd3iktWFogm4/s1600/zavarzina17102014-4.jpg" height="448" width="640" /></a></div>
Vic Wild is to Russians, what a Russian bride is to Americans. He was the American lad who switched nationalities to Russia after he married fellow snowboarder Alena Zavarzina. He went on to win double gold in the parallel grand slalom and the parallel slalom at Sochi and Alena won bronze in the parallel giant slalom. Now they are Russia's golden couple and since the Olympics they've starred in a multitude of awesome photo opportunities. Here's what's been going on...<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
One of the first things Vic did was head to <a href="http://www.maximonline.ru/longreads/interview/_article/vic-wild/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Maxim</a> and get dressed up like a homoerotic Russian submariner dishing up a buttery bread roll on a snowboard.<br />
<br />

Here's a strange little product war currently raging in the world of professional snowboarding...<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
Water is currently without a doubt the most fashionable drinking liquid in snowboarding.<br />
<br />
A few years ago two pro snowboarders, Bryan Fox and Austin Smith, created <a href="http://www.wedrinkwater.com/pages/reason" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Drink Water</a> as a way of opposing the influence of energy drinks in snowboarding.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzJIe4PP2OmOdMIETXYt-ZxcI29GX7kUxq8FlFa3VJ8O1GH4S2aPrYqhGvpfqbBJQhngGNF6Neqsz9wHcDFje_LFSyPwmHusK_qDHXFOZ_Dm0CzxvFSQ5Lrn0EgB5V9QhduwZ6F8wz-lw/s1600/drinkwater_IMG_1689_grande.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzJIe4PP2OmOdMIETXYt-ZxcI29GX7kUxq8FlFa3VJ8O1GH4S2aPrYqhGvpfqbBJQhngGNF6Neqsz9wHcDFje_LFSyPwmHusK_qDHXFOZ_Dm0CzxvFSQ5Lrn0EgB5V9QhduwZ6F8wz-lw/s640/drinkwater_IMG_1689_grande.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Over time they've managed to build that protest out into a whole business. They've also got <a href="http://www.wedrinkwater.com/collections/people" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">a roster of pro snowboarders</a> supporting them, at least until one of the energy drinks offers them a good deal, because let's be honest, there's no way to refuse them...<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="480" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/bntfUA6TmLs" width="640"></iframe>
</div>
<br />
<br />
The next problem for fashionable snowboarders is the carriage of their preferred drinking liquid. The existing myriad of liquid containers are not ethical enough so there was an opportunity to produce more sustainable bottles. The early mover in this market was another pro snowboarder, Jussi Oksanen who <a href="https://www.mizulife.com/blog/latest-news/an-interview-with-mizu-founder-jussi-oksanen/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">started a bottle company called Mizu</a>...<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
They now sell an array of bottles which range in price from $19 to £34 and they've also rustled up <a href="http://www.mizulife.com/advocates" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">a team of professional snowboarders</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
And now another set of pro snowboarders are trying to elbow their way in on the action. Gretchen Bleiler and her husband, Chris Hotell are busy relaunching their bottle company <a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1914152870/alex-bottle-twist-open-clean-easy-pack-small" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Alex</a> on Kickstarter as we type.<br />

<br />
I'm not sure what happened to that business the first time and why it needs a relaunch, but if you fancy one of their bottles they're going for <span style="text-align: center;">$20 a pop.</span><br />

So now we have the very strange situation where we have two pro-snowboarder run companies, selling expensive water bottles, and fighting it out for a share of a very niche market. The battle is on.<br />

I've just realised it's the 10th anniversary of this...<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
That was the banner on Ride's booth at the 2004 SIA trade show which unsurprisingly whipped up a storm of backlash. They even managed to garner some negative mainstream press coverage, which is an impressive thing for an obscure company in an obscure sport at an obscure trade fair.<br />
<br />
To resolve the controversy Ride were forced to release an official statement, which they did through <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20040730034244/http://ridesnowboards.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">a small link on the bottom of their homepage</a>. It didn't help a great deal that the statement mostly consisted of a whole heap of flagrant bullshit:<br />
<br />
<i>"</i><i>It has recently come to the attention of management at Ride Snowboards that a very inappropriate and insensitive statement was posted at our recent industry trade show booth. At the outset, we must be clear that our company and its employees in no way condone or otherwise support this type of activity or message. We are very disturbed by its occurrence.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Ride Snowboards apologizes to all those offended by this incident. We fully appreciate the extent of disappointment and dismay. In response to specific concerns expressed to us, we would like to clarify that this statement was in no way authorized, and we were as surprised and offended by its existence as the individuals we have recently heard from.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Throughout Ride’s 11-year history, we have always attempted to hire, educate, and maintain a non-judgmental and socially open-minded workforce and we continue to act in accordance with that goal. Accordingly, the employees responsible for this incident have been suspended without pay for a period of time, during which they have agreed to participate in a program that will heighten their sensitivity and social tolerance. Upon returning to their jobs, the individuals will remain on probationary status for an additional period of time.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Furthermore, although this incident was limited to the actions of a few, Ride Snowboards will begin to immediately re-educate all of its employees on its existing company policy of zero tolerance for any workplace harassment which includes negative conduct to an individual because of gender, race, religion, sexual orientation or disability.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>We have also taken steps to communicate our sentiment directly to NSIA as well as all individuals and organizations that have contacted us regarding this incident.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>To those most directly offended by the statements made, our customers and the public generally, we thank you for your understanding in this matter – and again offer our sincerest apologies and commitment to zero tolerance in matters like this.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Sincerely,</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Robert Marcovitch</i><br />
<i>President</i><br />
<i>Ride Snowboards"</i><br />
<br />
<br />
And that my friends is the finest example snowboarding has so far produced on how you royally fuck up both trade show branding and controversy resolution.<br />
<br />
Robert Marcovitch has gone on to hold a series of handsomely paid CEO roles at the likes of <a href="http://news.coleman.com/coleman/news/robert-marcovitch-named-president-215578" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">K2 and Coleman</a>.<br />

That's how he describes himself on his website. He's got some skills, particularly when it comes to type and zombies. Here are a few choice examples from his portfolio.<br />

This one was suspiciously self-titled so I checked it out. It turns out that the place does exist and it's <a href="http://www.proctorski.com/" target="_blank">a little store in Nashua, New Hampshire</a>. The guy that owns the store is also called Jeff Proctor which means one of three things: </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
1. It's his dad's place and his dad is an incredibly unimaginative namer of his spawn. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
2. The Jeff Proctor who owns the store figured the only type of people he'd hire are people with the same name as him so all the people who work in the store and all his suppliers are called Jeff Proctor. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
3. Jeff Proctor the illustrator is vampire who doesn't age, but switches identities and careers every generation to hide the fact.</div>

If you want to see more of this sort of thing (there's less fart, but more zombies) take a look at his website <a href="http://www.makenonsense.com/" target="_blank">MAKENONSENSE</a></div>

By far the most bonkers thing about Willy's fashion business surprisingly isn't the rotten designs, it's the amount of money this stuff costs to buy. A Bogner jacket will cost anything up to $3,300, pants $1,200, gloves $350, a set of skis $3,500. Take a guess at how much this beanie will cost...<br />

For 40 years Willy Bogner Jr. has somehow got away with foisting clothing that looks like it was created by two monkeys having a knife fight in Liberace's wardrobe and amazingly he's made a lot of money from it. It's one of the most perplexing careers in skiing and a great hope for anybody with very limited talent who are lucky enough to inherit an already thriving family business, particularly in fashion, because apparently no one in fashion has the faintest fucking clue about fashion. We can only dread what will happen next.</div>

The world's of snowboarding and snowmobiling have a lot in common, beyond the common wish that we'd both thought of more succinct names for our activities when they were invented. However both things come from very different backgrounds which keeps the cultures distinct in a few very specific ways. Because snowmobiling harks from the world of motoring it does have the unfortunate propensity to embrace a few things snowboarding wouldn't touch, like the use of shitty graphics, the addiction to three letter acronyms and what we're looking at today, the objectification of women. To demonstrate that difference let's take a look at the output of <a href="http://www.snowmobilecalendars.com/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Snowmobile Calenders</a>. Maybe this is the real reason why Jeremy Jones chooses to walk everywhere...<br />

Another sign of the approaching snowboard season is the first call-out for someone to work for free and Rider's Lounge the UK distributors of Capita are the first to get involved this year...<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<br />
If your career ambition is to be a modern-day slave, then good news, these guys have got just the job (non-job) for you. It's a great opportunity to put in lots of work for literally no money, food or life-sustaining drink. What's not to love?<br />

</div>
<br /></div>
<br />
Please Note: This is a job for professional slaves only, no 'hobby' slaves, this shit is serious<br />
<br />
<br />
Stick around, because later in the season Rider's Lounge will be offering more great prizes such as:<br />
<br />
If you're under 16 you could be the lucky winner of an opportunity to makes shoes for one of their brands in the Philippines.<br />
<br />
And there'll be thousands of chances to win big when the Rider's Lounge will need your help to build their new square-trangular-pointy-shaped headquarters.<br />
