Late last season, in hopes of finding new terrain and lots of pow, the Sims crew headed down to Crested Butte, Colorado to shoot the 10/11 ad campaign. Three full days were spent in the backcountry hitting natural features that were only accessible by snowmobile. The last three days of the shoot were spent on hill at a closed to the public Crested Butte riding pipe, park and a special hip build. The mountains provided a beautiful backdrop while the snow continued to dump and the riders stomped landings in order to get the shot. The images were once again captured by Snowboarder Magazine’s Senior Photographer, Aaron Dodds and footage was shot by Justin Gunson.
But the fun really didn’t get started ‘til late night when pants would come off and the posing would begin in front of the white seamless backdrop. You just never know what you are going to get when you mix PBR, a handle of Jack and taxidermy animals. Here is a sneak peek…come back this fall to see all the debauchery.
Pro-Series Camp is almost here!

This month's issue of Snowboarder Mag features epic imagery of Sims riders launching insane air. We picked up our copies with plans for some intellectual after-dinner reading in our private study, possibly with some congac and fine stogies; after which we will discuss it's implications in modern society. Or, you know, we'll just say they are super gnarly.

Steve Fisher placed 2nd in the men’s superpipe finals at the second stop of the Winter Dew Tour in Mt. Snow this past weekend. Fisher raised the bar high on his first run, spinning all the way down the pipe throwing back-to-back 7s, back-to-back 9s, a 1080 and a cab 9. His resulting score of 92.75 put the pressure on all the other riders. Everyone had a tough time overcoming Fisher's strong standing except for Shaun White who snatched the lead on his second run. Fisher is in a good spot heading into the X Games later this month. Be sure to tune in http://espn.go.com/action/xgames/index for videos and more!
