I detest the 8th grade content in TW Snowboarding and Snowboarder. You'd think that with a sport as photogenic as this you'd get something akin to Surfers Journal or Concrete Wave for snow sliders but no...just drivel. Now the latest issue of Snowboarder arrives and the only decent section in the whole mag - "elements", where they grudgingly serve up some decent photos, you now find full page ads on every other page.
The only thing I like about snowboarding is the ride...just about everything else about it SUCKS. Lift tickets, jibbers, lame videos, wannabe punk ass posers...and a whole media devoted blindly to the lowest common denominator.
Arrrgggghhhh....I'm glad they're are some indoor skateparks around here.

I couldn't agree more with that entire post. I think I've hated the whole snowboard culture for close to 10 years. The last thing I was into was the first year of the Palmer team with Andy , Temple and Shawn

I think I found what I was looking for: Frequency Magazine. $12 a copy but worth it. The Mike Olson interview in the latest issue is great, and so are all the photos. |
