The only feature really worth hiking at the Killington the week before Rails 2 Riches was the down rail so we spent most of our day there.  Some more park edits and teaser shots from this year’s movie will be showing up on the site soon.

Hopefully everyone is having a white christmas.  We’ll be heading to VT for the next two weeks to film urban, build jumps and spend some quality time with the fam.  Check back soon for some pics on what we’ve been up to.

After spending three hours at night building and shaping lips so that the snow would freeze, the uconn crew got together a few days before final exams to enjoy the first snowfall on campus.  We spent a few hours getting a bunch of shots on a fun electrical box jib that Abo destroyed with his board.  Then we took it into the night with a nice 16ft single barrrel with a small gap to another 16ft.  Everyone made the best of it despite several weeds on the inrun that occasionally tripped us up.  It was good to get the first few shots of the Uconn urban segment in the bag cause CT has a pretty limited winter to hit rails.  For more photos click HERE.

Winter is in full swing, but before it hit we had to truck in snow from ice rinks.   On December 5th Colorado Ski Shop teamed up with Ski Sundown and West Springfield’s Parks and Rec to put together one of the biggest early season rail jams.  Several reps were on hand with tons of product giveaways and displays while the locals gathered to watch over 60 skiers and riders compete on an extensive arrangement of rails.  Line riders Will Wesson and Ian Compton were on hand to help judge the finals.  Big thanks to Hussein and Brian for putting together an awesome and successful event.

Last Friday we held a dual movie premiere with Meathead films.   We showed our film, “To and From,” and the Meatheads showed “Wild Stallions.”  With over 200 people coming to view the films, it was a huge success.  Thanks to Tom Zelek and Eric Brandolini at GHS and Rogge at Meatheads.  Check out the pictures from the night below.
