get well trevor

For those of you who don't already know, our good friend/rider/farmer that eats, sleeps, & breathes amurica, Trevor Rhoda, suffered a head injury last week at a late season snowboard gathering in Michigan. He has since been in the hospital in a medically induced coma due to a fractured skull. So far, even though he is not conscious yet, he has been showing great positive signs of recovery. He has been in stable condition ever since his surgery & is slowly being taken off of the paralytic medications. It may be a long road ahead, but Trevor is one of the toughest kids we know & he will surely power through this like a champ. We're not sure how exactly he'll be affected by the damage to his brain but personally I think he'll be back on the board in no time & be the same exact person we all know. All we can do right now is keep him in our thoughts & pray that everything is going to go back to normal. So if you know him, or even if you don't, take a minute of your day to send good vibes his way. He & I & all of us would really appreciate it! That's about all we can do at the moment but the immense amount of love that we've seen thus far has been truly amazing & it's exactly what he needs to get through this!

down for Hobush

I met Brandon Hobush last year up at Brighton while we were hiking a down rail. Ever since I met him I have been amazed how good he is, Every time I see footage of the kid I am blown away. He is always doin new shit. He just got first at the TransAm at bear, and has won almost every contest at Brighton. Brandon should have some shots in THE LEAK.
After watching this video I am sure you will agree with me.

Blotto is da boss


I borrowed this photo off his website.
So a few of us were fortunate enough to hang with Blotto this winter and get to shoot photos with him. The man gets shit done. He was always helping us set up and tear down spots, constantly making us laugh, and was always on point with the photos he shot.
Blotto has a website http://www.blottophotto.com/ if you get a sec you check it out. He has this real sweet section called featured bikes, he is constantly blogging and also has stickers you can order. There are so many other goodies on his web site to keep you entertained for days.

arizona

Trevor Rhoda, Parker Duke, & I set off on an AZ resort tour about 2 weeks ago since Utah wasn't doing so well & we wanted a change of scenery. We stopped at Sunrise Park Resort, Mount Lemmon Ski Valley, & Arizona Snowbowl for one day each in order to make this edit & did all driving within the same days, minus the long haul to/from SLC. Click here for the BOND blog post & enjoy the video below.

Now that I'm posting all Bond/Weekend related stuff on the Bond blog (www.bondsnowboarding.com) it's pretty painful to have to do it twice through two different blog hosts, so I'm just going to put the post links on here from now on. Check out the first one from our first backcountry trip of the year by clicking HERE.
