Late last season, in hopes of finding new terrain and lots of pow, the Sims crew headed down to Crested Butte, Colorado to shoot the 10/11 ad campaign. Three full days were spent in the backcountry hitting natural features that were only accessible by snowmobile. The last three days of the shoot were spent on hill at a closed to the public Crested Butte riding pipe, park and a special hip build. The mountains provided a beautiful backdrop while the snow continued to dump and the riders stomped landings in order to get the shot. The images were once again captured by Snowboarder Magazine’s Senior Photographer, Aaron Dodds and footage was shot by Justin Gunson.
But the fun really didn’t get started ‘til late night when pants would come off and the posing would begin in front of the white seamless backdrop. You just never know what you are going to get when you mix PBR, a handle of Jack and taxidermy animals. Here is a sneak peek…come back this fall to see all the debauchery.

The 1st Annual Kick In The Ribs closing day event went down this past weekend at Loveland. With over 3 1/2 feet of snow falling in the last week of the season, it made for epic conditions! Combine the late season snow with some hyped people, lots of food and drink and a bunch of product to giveaway and you’ve got a recipe for fun! Sims riders Erich Dummer and Bryan Daino were on hand to ensure that the stoke was contagious, giving away 3 shred sticks and a whole bunch of swag to the eager crowd. Throughout the entire day, over 200 lbs of pulled pork, 30 racks of ribs and more potato salad than you can imagine were consumed by some hungry shreds. A huge “Thank you” to Chris Heublein for cooking the ridiculous amount of pork to perfection on the Samquench! And many more thanks go out to Loveland, the Public Works, PBR, Red Bull, DVLP Clothing, and Spyder for making this a closing day to remember! See you next year at the 8th annual KITR!

The 2010 Take the Lake Competition took place this past weekend with our own team rider Seth Hill making a splash. Seth rose above the competition during the Triple Air Jumpline Slopesytle contest at Lake Tahoe’s Alpine Meadows. Representing Sims snowboards and outerwear Seth had the right mix of trick execution, amplitude, fluidity, and difficulty in the Saturday championship round to slide into the 2nd place podium spot and take home his cut of the cash prize purse.
Seth also took 2nd place at Echo Mtn.’s Liptricks Not Lipstick contest earlier this month. He is all over the place slaying podiums left and right. Congratulations Seth!!

The third annual Sims Pro Series Camp at Echo Mountain went down this past weekend resulting in a lot of bumps, bruises and bragging rights. Fifteen campers spent two full days learning new tricks from Sims pro riders Steve Fisher, Erich Dummer, Seth Hill & Bryan Daino. With lots of encouragement from their coaches the campers perfected their skills on the various box, rail and jump setups around Echo. The kids were then given a chance to show off what they learned during the progression session. Sims snowboards were awarded to campers who charged all weekend and pushed their abilities to the next level. Thanks to Echo Mtn, Sports Authority, Smiling Moose Deli, Beau Jo’s, all of the awesome campers and of course the Sims team riders for making it all happen. Looking forward to next year!

The Sims crew and other snow sliding enthusiasts flooded Echo Mountain earlier this week to enjoy a private session on the shred hill. The second annual Sims Snow Appreciation Day was a huge success bringing together consumers and industry influencers for a day of fun, low key shredding and high 5’s. Echo’s park crew even built a fun little box to box gap feature for Sims pro riders Erich Dummer and Bryan Daino to enjoy. Everyone snacked on Qdoba and cold beers from the bar. At the end of the day three lucky winners walked away with brand new 10/11 Sims boards. Our day of appreciating snow will hopefully lead to lots of fresh this month.

It was a perfect bluebird day at the mountain and jackets were quickly shed as the day progressed. Sims riders Bryan Daino and Seth Hill and the awesome Keystone instructors quickly spread their love of snowboarding on to the kids who eagerly hung on each instruction. Nailing their skills in record time, it wasn’t long before the kids were challenging the Sims riders to racing competitions! At the end of the day the students were already planning their next riding adventures. We would like to thank SOS and Brian Phipps for the wonderful opportunity, the Keystone instructors the kids from the Greenwood School, we’re all so proud of your progress!
