Here is a video that we are sure most of you have seen by now… not because we posted it on the site, but because we have been annoying the shit out of you to vote for it on Facebook. Now that we can put all that behind us, we shall post it on the site. If you haven’t seen it, enjoy… if you have, well hopefully you liked it enough to watch it again. Good work out there Evan.

Bender… Yep, it is almost the end of the Lake Louise season. As goes with tradition Rude Boys will gather us dead beats all together for a day of sending and consuming our favorite beverages. This year it follows Ruckus in the Rockies held by Monster, which from what we remember… or don’t remember… is one hell of a party! We all know that the best way to remedy such a hangover is a classic hair of the dog day of boardin’! So throw this weekend on your calender and come send it… it’s the right thing to do.

We have been a busy crew this week taking care of our own events and bringing as much as we can to our local boardin’ scene. Much like us, there is another group of dudes in Revy that try to bring as much to their scene has humanly possible. Karl Jost owner of Society Skate and Snow held his second annual S-games last weekend at Revelstoke Mountain Resort. Karl is a rad duder and a good friend so when he asked us to attend the event again this year there was no way we could deny such a good time. Gui, Murray, and Steveo cleaned house coming home with a lot of swag and even more stories about how hard everyone partied. You will find a video below highlighting some of the fun had during the day. Shout out to the whole gang in Revy, keep killin it!

The Mega Buckle Bowl went down with out a hitch today at Lake Louise Ski Resort! A great turn out of riders and spectators alike made for what was without a doubt one super fun day. With any contest there will be winners an losers, but as chesse as it sounds ….. we feel that everyone walked away from todays contest with at least a smile on their face. As for the winners of the product and the money, you can see them listed below along with a few podium photos from our homie Geoff Simpson. Huge thanks to all the sponsors and volunteers that made this rider driven contest possible.

Womens – 3rd Josepha Tanguay, 2nd Kyna Daley, 1st Jessica King

Junior – 1st/2nd/3rd Matteo Massitti.. all other competition decided it wasn’t worth trying to take this kid down

Mens – 3rd Murray Hodgson, 2nd Jonathan Chew, 1st Alex Morris

Simply put, Guillaume won a GoPro2+Handle at the PBRJ last weekend… so we decided to give it a go through the park. Figured we would each take a crack at the dice for a lap. Sorry for the lack luster audio… it is a GoPro after all, but you’ll get the point.

We are helping bring a solid Slopestyle contest to Lake Louise this season. Contests in the Bow Valley have been on a decline as of late due to the lack of support from resorts with their terrain parks.

Come check it out and SUPPORT your local scene.
