Talk about progression. Talk about motivation. Talk about event organizers. Talk about Pro Snowboarders. Talk about Travis Rice.

Travis is one of the most innovative and progressive snowboarders in the world. This winter alone he organized, hosted and won The Quiksilver Natural Selection contest. This contest was the first of its kind and truly unique for both riders and spectators. Along side his contest planning Travis has been filming for his video titled “Thats It Thats All” which will be a different perspective movie about Travis and the athletes he tends to work with.

Travis is the kind of rider that will push himself as far as he can go and when he can’t go any further will pick up the camera and help attain footage for the movie. This kid is dangerously motivated.

Heikki Sorsa and Burton Snowboards

Snowboard Revolution — Wed, 02 Jul 2008 17:42:33 +0000

Heikki Sorsa and Burton Snowboards - Heiki Sorsa is one of the greatest Finish exports. He is one of the best riders of Burton Snowboards’ Global Team. He can ride from half pipes to rails with so much style and control. I’m glad that he is back in the Burton Global Team. They told us that JP Solberg and Romain De Marchi are not longer in the Global Team. Heikki is sponsored by Burton, Oakley, Analog, Gravis, Red Bull and GSM-Suomi.

Kael Hill and Brothers Factory

I talked to Kael Hill last night and we will have an interview with him coming shortly. He sent me a preview of his new video part coming out for the “Brothers Factory” new video. I was hoping to use it for the site because its one of the most progressive rail riding video parts I have ever seen. He told me that this part will be used in the new Brothers Facotry video and I cant wait until you all see it.
Kael is a Banff kid that is pushing the envelope of snowboarding for sure. He is Endeavor snowboards newest addition to the AM team, he is killing contests (1st place Empire Shakedown), making insane video parts and is also a part of a new business venture called “Waffle Cone Zone” Collaboration. You can expect to see plenty of their collaborative stuff dropping on Snowrev soon.

Check back for Kaels full interview.

Chany Jeanguenin - Alphanumeric Brand is one of the main sponsors of Chany as well as Expedition Skateboards, Demon, Indy Trucks and Lakai.

Chany Jeanguenin is a great skater that back in the day moved from Switzerland to USA to make the dream. Chany (no to be confused with Dick Cheney) skates any type of terrain from halfpipes to curbs to hand rails. I had the pleasure of skating with him back in 91 at the Brookling Banks in NYC. We talked with him today about snowboarding at Alphanumeric Brand Headquarters.

Volcom Snowboards

Its true. The rumors have settled an Zac Marben was without a doubt been riding a Volcom Snowboard at Mt Hood.
If Volcom continues with this board line we can expect to see some of the coolest graphics and unique technology on the market. Volcom brings a unique and creative feel to everything they do. Their apparel is great, outerwear is unique and even their events are cool as can be.

Apparently Zac Marben and Seth Huot will be the main riders on these shred sticks. See if you can get yourself one…

Check out our coverage from Volcoms most recent contest “The Peanut Butter Rail Jam”

Suburban Blend

snowrev — Sat, 28 Jun 2008 20:39:06 +0000

Suburban Blend in downtown Jamestown is one of the most core snowboard and skateboard shops in the world. They currently sell worldwide through the website Shoptheblend.com and have been really making a name for themselves this past year.

Their are so many snowboard shops in the industry today and that is ok with me. The more shops in the world, the more people have the ability to get snowboard gear and the more people that will actually be snowboarding.

Check out Suburban Blend now.

Shaun White Burton Snowboards

Snowboard Revolution — Thu, 26 Jun 2008 17:01:18 +0000

Shaun White Burton Snowboards - What to say about Shaun White? He changed the face of snowboarding: from playmates to the cover of Rolling Stone, from Hollywood Hills to winning the gold at the 2006 Olympics and from a Dodge Patas to driving a Lamborghini. The list of his sponsors is endless; Burton Snowboards, Oakley, Red Bull, Volcom, Adio Shoes, Park City Resort, HP, Target, etc.

Shaun White is also a professional skateboarder and has a pro model with Tony Hawk’s company Birdhouse and trust me he can put the hammer down when we are talking about skating transitions. Everybody is wondering if he will get his second gold medal at 2010 Olympics in Whistler, Canada? Do you?
