Up For Grabs: With Darrell Mathes

The first time I hung out with Darrell Mathes I was a bit skeptical of this pseudo-metro Portland pretty boy. I knew the dude could ride rails, jumps, pipe, anything but whether or not he could hang was another question entirely. Whenever the waitress came around I expected him to order either some form of designer martini or a Mike’s Hard Lemonade [aka the Dateline Chaser.] Darrell ordered neither. As a matter of fact he didn’t order anything. This only heightened my suspicions.

Take a Hike with Leeward Cinema

"Step by step, I cursed the idea of a 'green' film and yearned for the smell of gas fumes and the idle ticking of a snowmobile awaiting me as my chariot to this Godforsaken tent site. All the while, Chris stayed behind, ensuring all of us arrived safely, the tacit shush of his split-board skins reassuring us all of his company."

The Launch

"Still in their formative years, the snowboarders invited to The Launch represent the best up-and-coming riders in the world. Though many of the attendees had existing bonds within their local scenes and interactions at contests, the objective of The Launch was to get these groms together outside of a competitive environment and have them get to know each other as more than just bib numbers."

Mind The Gap: Red Bull Gap Session 2008

"Standing at the top of the steep thirty-five-degree run-in is daunting enough, but contemplating jumping the massive gap jump below? 'Not for ten thousand bucks' is the general consensus of the spectators gathered below. As for being the first to drop, the 'guinea pig'? Not for a million."

So as I was glancing through this issue I noticed that snowboarding is still about having fun, crapping with your friend in the woods, or just an article about nothing in general. The main thing is this mag still makes me laugh after all these years.

So.. I just re-subscribed... what ever happened to the letters from readers.. I always found that amusing... and another thing.. Is Forum some how banned from the buyers guide.. Word on the street is they have started manufacturing everything in china.. My theory is that Jake Burton is behind it to make the products inferioir so noone will want to buy them anymore and start buying Burton..any thoughts?
