Oneshot Productions - All Filler, No Killer - Teaser! Snowboarding in the northwest 05/06 winter, cat skiing, back country and m
Plain and simple, the winter of 2005 was hell. Rumors were that it could be blamed on a toque burning gone wrong. for years the Crew had always burned a toque or other such endeared snowboard type objects from the previous season. It was a tribute to the snow gods, making a sacrifice for the new season, all in the hopes that the snow would fall upon them like a Volcano erupting and blanketing the world with ash. In the fall of 2005 the Guys got a little overzealous and brought a plastic Girl doll from China to the toque burning. Rumor is the lack of snow for that winter season was all her fault.
So she got her’s..
And we paid our dues, repented, and did a ton of alternative activities and waited for another winter..and waited.. and waited some more..
In EARLY November 2005 things were starting to heat up, or should I say cool down, that’s when redemption time kicked in.. For this was to be one of the best winters the Northwest had seen since the epic winter of 98. Storms blanketed the Northwest hills relentlessly and it seemed like the sun would never shine again.. As soon as the local ski resorts opened, they closed because of to much snow! For months we never ever felt our edges touch hardpack! And beneath each fluffy powder cloud we were grinning ear to ear.
This is the Story of two guys and their friends that repeated the splendor that Mother Nature provided over the course of the winter of 2006. No pro’s, just bro’s, sliding a piece of wood down a hill sideways like it was meant to be slid...
