Zach Stone.. Underdog or Top Dawg?

Although Zach Stone is still young he's had a pretty lengthy reign in the snowboard world, He's definitely had enough time to make a name for himself be it good or bad.

Ive always had respect for him when others are quick to judge. Stoner has always had tons of pressure on him when it comes to snowboarding; be it sponsors, contests, or knowing somebody is always watching and constantly judging. It's Zachs 'fuck it dude' attitude that made an impact on me.

Zach ignored everyone when people where telling him how to make his next move in snowboarding, it may not have been what his sponsors wanted but in my opinion it worked, in the last two seasons Ive seen his snowboard skills progress like crazy. He has also had the time to grow into a young man and kick that cocky little kid attitude that everyone holds against him.

I had the pleasure to go hit a pretty well known rail in Collingwood with Zach when he was back for a short time over Christmas visiting his family.

Stoners definitely a Top Dawg in my books, he has loads of talent and he's not afraid to make choices on his own despite what industry puppeteers are telling him.

Push.ca Interview

Here it is.. like I said a few days ago I was given the opportunity to do a little interview with a long time friend; Andrew Sayer for Push.ca. Thank you Sayer for the great intro.

Click the Photo to go to Push.ca



Still Shots FOR Days!

Don't you hate it when you go to a spot and work on getting a trick for a good 2+ hours but never actually get it the way you wanted it... I DO.

Must have got at least 60 photos last night, clogging up Momars memory card.. but maybe only got my trick once. I say maybe because it didn't feel right when I landed it but i guess ill see once it's pulled off the camera.

Thanks Greg, Skelhorn and Momar for your patience.

Jeff "Rat" Robinson


Jeff Robinson, Chomp'd.


Maybe the most under the radar, under rated kid trying to work his way up in Ontario.
If you can do a trick Jeff can do the trick and then he will do it switch right after just because he can.

He has no sponsors and I donated my old boots to him because his 32 lashed from 2007 just wouldn't hold another drop of shoe goo or strip of duct tape. His boots didn't slow him down nor did his busted board last season that he beat a bunch of us on to win the Smolik says rail jam.

This picture was taken the other day right after he hit his face off his knee when landing off a jump. 6 hours later and 4 stitches in his toungue I shit you not this is what he asked. "Can you drop me off back at the park, I still feel like riding.." And that is what he did.
