TETON SNO*BOTS The Journey and The Story

Alright, so late october everyone just gets so stoked to go ride but problem is that there is no snow... What do you do?  Well you call up Sled Shed and find out when they're going to have their rail jam... One of the best rail setups you'll find in Idaho...  They have real snow made by Mother Nature herself and the perfect slope for a rail setup too...  If thats not enough Sled Shed even makes Sled Shed Jerseys to give to all of the competitors so they can use them as a bib...  So if you're in Idaho or Utah or anywhere close, then come to the rail jam and have a good time...  Not only that but theres an After-Party with live bands, a DJ and a HUGE raffle...
We'll just show you some of the pics from this year from making the rails to building the lips, from the session till the After Party...  Check it out!

So bright! So wielding!

As you can tell, painting high grade paint in an inclosed area can make you a bit high and stuff...  Look at those wonderful faces.

Hauling the rails to Smith Park in Rexburg, Id. which is a good place if you have your own rail and wanna get a little bit of a session going on...  and if you don't have a rail or box then just use some of the picnic tables there.

Over 400 people packed in there...  One good show.

Its been a very very, ummmm different winter...  We have been getting hardly any snow and just recently its been snowing pretty good...  It is now the beginning of February so we're missed a bit of stuff...  Lets take it back to the beginning and let the pictures tell the story.
We are actually going to start clear back in July... Why?  Cause I went to Mt. Hood in July.  We have a friend, Sean McDonald which has a brother named Corey that works up at Mt. Hood in the High Cascade Snowboard Camp.  Corey McDonald was kind enough to let us shred the hill as long as we help set up features and help groom the park.   Check out the vid and just get a glimps for yourself...





We also have a few pics from the trip, some on the way there, some at Mt. Hood and some of the ride home...

So we decided to use a trailer to haul our stuff yonder from Rexburg, ID till Mt. Hood OR.  Well we made a quick stop over in Idaho Falls and when we got out of the car we could smell something burning and soon found out that one of my Boots (Burton Sabbaths) got caught in the wheel well of the trailer...  Haha, I demoed some boots as soon as I got to Hood.

Dang we look greasy...  13 hour drives are way fun and not at the same time...  Quick story, on the way there in the middle of nowhere our tire blew,  we put the donut on it and then camped out at a rest stop.  I was so worried I was going to get stabbed by some serial killer or a homeless dude...

First time on the hill after our frickin long drive, we are stoked even if we don't look like it...

Us in Trillium Lake over by Mt. Hood.  For some reason it decided to be 90 degrees all the time while at Hood.  We slept outside so there was no escape from the heat except this wonderful lake.  If you go to Hood in the summer make sure you hit up this Lake for sure!!!

View of the ski hill from the lake!!!  If you look close enough you can see the halfpipes and jumps and rails!


This is the jump they made for Bode Merril to hit at the private photoshoot.  Lucky for us we were able to hit it up the day after.  Everyone was throwing down on it.  Then the snow decided to get super slushy and we all ended up getting broke off after hitting the knuckle a couple of times.  Too bad this was also our last day at Mt. Hood...


Shoshone Falls over by Twin Falls.  Hit this up if you're going by Twin Falls for sure.  I hear in the springtime is the best when all the snow is melting...

Mexican Band making a music video when we arrived at the falls...  We couldn't pass up a pick with these fellas! YEAH
