MACK DAWG STEPS UP HUGE WITH NEW TEASER!

Here is the teaser for Mack Dawg’s new release, “Picture This” due out in September. It looks Brad Kremer and company has invested in some new camera trickery machinery to document this season’s shred tom-foolery. It seems that Mack Dawg trailers are usually pretty mind-blowing in regards of riding, but with “Picture This” they have now added ground-breaking High-Definition cameras to up the ante. Throw a captian-insano line up of riders and “Picture This” should be quite a ground-breaking release.

SICK JUSTIN CAHILL SKATE PHOTOS

Here are some new pics of Justin Cahill. Justin is gnarly. The stuff he skates is rarely hit by other skaters! Peep the photos and yu'll see what I'm talking about.



NEW SNOW TEAM RIDER


The Source is proud to present new snowboard team rider, Donn Hore.

Have you ever had that feeling when you’re out riding, thinking you’re pretty good and all, and then you see someone come by and destroy the crap out of everything leaving you feeling completely humbled? I find one of two things happen:

1. You think to yourself “wow, I thought I was pretty good, but now I think I completely suck,” and proceed to reminisce about how much more fun snowboarding was when you were actually kinda good at it.

2. You realize right then that snowboarding has so many unopenend doors for you, cause if this dude is blowing them the ___ down, you can at least knock nicely and weasel your way in with some hard work.

#2 is Donn Hore, and we’re not the only ones who think so. His first published shot was the cover of Transworld! He’s also gone on to see a crapshoot of photos published in Snowboard Canada. The future looks bright for young Mr. Hore and we’re stoked to be a part of it!!!

THE SOURCE WINS 2007 SHOP SHOWDOWN!

April 28, 2007- LAKE LOUISE, AB. - TJ Schneider & Dwayne Weibe win the Lake Louise Shop Showdown!

After 15cms of fresh springtime pow fell, it was once again time for the annual Shop Showdown to go down at Lake Louise. The Shop Showdown is an event that pits shops from all over central and western Canada together in a hand-to-hand fight to the death for the title of most ripping shop in the west. Okay that’s a bit of an exaggeration, but the shredding does get pretty heated between shops. Basically the deal is that each shop is represented by teams of two riders (one team rider and one shop employee) that compete in a slopestyle for extravagant prizes and the title of #1 ripping shop in the Wild West. The Source had the most presence at the event, represented with 5 teams.

After a morning of ripping some insane pow, the contest was ready to get going at around noon. The setup had most shop employees “employing” their pants, with a 40 foot table to start into a 60 footer and then some rails after to finish the job. The team consisting of TJ Schneider and Dwayne Weibe pretty much sealed things up first run with TJ dropping a switch back 5 into a front 7 and Dwayne ripping a backside 7 into a frontside 7 to seal the deal.

Dwayne and TJ took home RCR seasons passes for 2008 (an $1100 value) and a Texas Mickey of Jack Daniels for their efforts. Nice work boys!
