Archive for November 2009

You know the feeling. It's november and the new season hype is reaching it's heyday and all you want to do is f...ing shred and "testroy" the new equipment. But without snowfalls under 2000m the local resort is still closed. So what are you gonna do? Call your friends, put the saved money together and have a Glacier session. That's what I did. My destination was the mountain of Stubai Zoo. And I have to say that my guess of an all icy pre season glacier was wrong. Between some runs at the nice shaped park and wild style slope action with the dawgs, I took some hikes and slashed some good ol' pow. Have a look at the pics below and visit www.jrbkingz.com for more story.

Elias got almost a few covers this fall and Marco keeps going big. Check it out. Rock on Fellas!

"After a terrific kick-off day loaded with action on the Dachstein glacier, the audience witnessed a fulminate spectacle on a dreamlike and sunny day. In the end, however, only one could win the contest: Splendid winner of the men’s judging was Elias Elhardt" - Word. Congratulations Elias, you rock buddy!

The JRBK crew is proud to announce the launch of their high end movie production, "Bonk'em All". The dirty premiere will take place on november 28th in Dresden, Germany, with the Airmovie from Airblaster as bonus! Long life to JRBK!

Back from my 10 days trip to the US! i had to do some poster signing's ( zumiez shop) in two spots in the us (minneapolis and new york), we also had some photo shootings and some meetings in the Ride office in Seattle - so i had to travel a lot around the us!

About the poster signing's: ride snowboards showed there new promo team movie in some zumiez invited shops all over the US - and Ride invited me and Hana Beaman to come to two stops- one was in Minneapolis and the other one was around New York! And i think it was a big success for us- it was alot of fun because one guy played a song in front of us, the security team ask for a photo with us, to get a free ride board they had to pronounce my name!

After the stop in Minneapolis we flew to Seattle and i spend around one week there- the whole international team was there- we shooted some photos for the new catalog, we had some meetings (lots of talking) also i had my first halloween in the us- party like hell!

All in one- it was a funny trip and it was cool to see and to spent some time with everybody again (team and peoples behind the brand)

Finaly this season i get and already got some photos and ad's in the US mags- thx alot guys!

talk to you soon fichtl
