EVO GEAR
My newest sponsorship is defiantly the coolest shop out there! Evo Gear’s shop is in Seattle (my home town- REPRESENT!) located in the heart of the most happening area downtown. I am honored to become a part of this family because their values represent mine so closely. Evo carries the most stylish brands, involves the community, and is growing quickly!
“It is no mistake that our location is a venue, art gallery, and retail space all wrapped into one” -evo.
A year ago when I was paying a visit to Seattle, I took my friend from Japan, Yutaro, to an Evo party. They were premiering a snowboard flick where the pro’s traveled around snowboarding, surfing, and skating. Yutaro had a blast drinkng as much Seattle mircobrew beer as he pleased, hanging out meeting tons of people, and getting photos with the “pro’s.” Later Yutaro wrote me a letter and said, “I don’t like American party, I LOVE American party!” -Thanks evo for showing us how it’s done.
Here is my interview with Evo crew member Molly Hawkins…

The Fat-ypus V-ROCKS!
Last year Fat-ypus came out with my dream ski, the I-rocks. I loved everything about the ski! They were stiff underfoot making them super poppy and became softer in the tips and tails making them super playful. They had a perfect amount of rocker in tip and tail and super fat (126 underfoot) making them very floaty. The only problem was they were a bit big for me. Being 5′6” the ski towered over me with at length 186.
SOOO, this year Faty-pus is coming out with the……V-Rock! It will have the same flex but will come in a 176, way more appropriate for my size and be nice and rockered out for all my pow/jib experiments. It’s going to be a bit more narrow underfoot making it lighter for touring but still floaty with the rocker. Can’t wait to rock the V-Rocks this winter!!!!

ON A BILLBOARD!
Brent Benson and myself did a photo shoot for Snowbird’s Spring Advertising campaign. A month later the photos where used on flyers, published in magazines and on a Billboard! The billboard is only a couple blocks from my house at the base of Little and Big Cottonwood Canyon by the 7-Eleven.
