I was recently interviewed for the MAS Report on minorities in Action Sports research project. Props to Marcus Jimenez for reaching out. I love to share my thoughts on what Snowboarding means to me.

Crazy late start this season for a lot of people. North America was pretty dry stateside but glad last week Tahoe and Utah got dumped on. I’ve been getting in a few sessions myself. Last weekend I hot up Big Boulder in Pennsylvania with the homies. Next time I go I have to rock this joint on the playlist. Shout to Rah Digga!

This South Bronx band was sampled by a lot of Hip Hop artist. I can most defiantly shred to this hands down!

Yes! we are getting closer to days on the mountain out east and the playlist that I have been building up over the year is almost ready. Recently I hooked up with the homie Chris Black America to Direct his music video “Who Am I?” featuring Creature and Supa Nova Slom. He came by the crib with the track and played it for me and I was like  ”You know I have to do the video right?!” Funny thing is we met 11 years ago and I developed the Black America logo way before I got into motion graphics, and now The logo comes back, but this time it’s a video project. Enjoy!

Be sure to check the band out this Friday 11/18/11 at the Shrine in Harlem. Show time is 8:30pm and it’s FREE
2271 Adam Clayton Powell Jr Blvd btwn 133rd & 134th street

I had so much fun shooting this and working on the post. Shout out to my entire production team:

Shawn Peters - Director of Photography

Jason Grant – Editor

Brooklyn Brown – Key Grip

Tavon Paupaw – Assistant Director / PA

Rashida James – Stylist

Been waiting for Nas to drop another gem for my shred playlist this winter!

I got to give it up to people like Jeremy Jones and Xavier de Le Rue. The level of big mountain riding has been insane since I started Snowboarding 12 years ago. I think it’s a true talent to Snowboard on such scale and navigate lines as you make your first descent into zones never ridden before.Watching this trailer gets me charged up, and at the same time; reconsider my appetite for  backcountry Snowboarding. LOL

We will be raffling off Snowboards, skateboards and other cool items to raise funds for our 2012 Snowboard program. Please come out and make a donation and get in on this raffle! See you this Saturday!

I think you might want to start going in that storage room and find where you stashed your set up from last year. Some of us are lucky to to ball out and cop a whole new set up head to toe this season. Either way it’s about four months to #SHREDAGEDEON nothing like Metallica to get the blood bubbling for that first run on the hill!

Elzhi will be performing with a live band in NYC this week at S.O.B’s. I already know it’s going to be a dope show. I posted a link to the “Elmatic” mix tape download a while back here. See you there!

Straight off Movies on Demand 3 is another heater from the homie Consequence. This is going on the playlist for that much awaited shred day. Shout out to the Fam on Linden BlVD!
