So sick. Dylan Gamache is one of the only few riders I like to watch jibbing (and you guys know how much I don’t like rails and urban stuff)

Same.

THIS is the kind of creativity we should see MUCH more of!

I really don’t get why almost every snowboarder with a video camera and a computer follows the same tired old formula of shot-after-shot of standard resort jumps and rails - when if they don’t have access to the world’s best riders, they will NEVER be as enticing/entertaining/impressive as the pro videos. Frankly, they’re boring.

With a little ingenuity and originality, these guys produce edits that are FAR more fun to watch - without the need for the big name riders throwing down the latest tricks.

The first carve to backside butter 360 was sick. And in the middle of the video toeside carve to revert/reverse carve was awesome as well.

@chucky: I agree, you can see the creativity in edits like this instead of just 1 shot of 1 rail trick/jump and done. Plus these guys has insane board control too, you don’t see too many rail riders that can carve like that (in my opinion).

Hey skip, you going to try that toeside carve to 360 nose roll thing? I’m soooooo keen. I’ve been doing them 180 in transitions so you link constant toeside carves, so I guess this is the next logical step.

Absolutely!

I have very little respect for snowboarders who look impressive enough on park features, but can’t carve a decent trench or ride a double black run.

I reckon sales of that Capita x Spring Break collab pow board (the fluoro green and white one) will go through the roof thanks to this vid.

@chucky: Haha, I can’t even do a regular frontside 180 nose roll properly (well I can, but it’s not high and it doesn’t look good haha). Haven’t actually tried backside nose rolls, will try it next time I ride. That spring break + capita collab board seems like a rockered board?

It worked on me!! Although i havent bought one, its on my list of possibles.
Its awesome, it looks like an aeroplane wing with bindings on it!

That revert carve was madness!

I love creative riding like this. Agree with what all the guys above have said.

NEED MORE CREATIVENESS! I have stopped watching a lot of edits because it is so repetitive
