One of the more talented and twisted stop-motion animators I’ve ever seen, PES has become a web sensation with his mind-boggling use of everyday objects to turn ordinary scenes into some of the sweetest eye candy available online. This particular video was done as a commercial for Sneaux Shoes, but check out “Western Spaghetti” [...]
Anyone who’s ever joked about or actually participated in a Chinese Downhill race has “Hot Dog” to thank. Released in January of 1984, it set the stage for other teen sex comedies of its kind like “Snowballing” and “Ski School“, and became one of the iconic films of the entire decade.
Starring David Naughton (of [...]
I had anxiously been awaiting the arrival of Handsome Furs’ newest album, Face Control, which finally came out back on March 10. Like any good fan, I raced to the nearest record store and planned on buying it without a listen. Unfortunately, I decided to hang out at Amoeba for a little bit [...]
The recent heavy snowfall in the western U.S. hasn’t been good news for everyone on the slopes, especially those involved in the Freeride World Tour at Squaw Valley. Unfortunately, after a successful first day of competition on the Silverado Face, a storm rolled in and made conditions on the elusive Tram Face too dicey [...]
What’s going on in Canada? Our neighbors to the north have given us yet another band who likes to play with toys…known simply (and quite terribly) as Holy Fuck. This time, not only are we greeted with toy keyboards as with their fellow countrymen, Sunset Rubdown, but also a cacophany of toy phaser guns and [...]
Well, I can hear the heavy pitter-patter of rain drops outside my window once again which means people at higher elevations are having alot more fun than me. The Sierras have been getting crushed over the past 24-48 hours with over two feet of snow in most places. And it should continue coming [...]
Let’s face it. Getting to the slopes isn’t quite as easy as it was, say, 6 months ago. With the economic crisis as bad as it is, a ski trip is probably one of the first things to get crossed off your list of things to do. Of course, I could argue [...]
“Ski school’s not about learning how to ski!”
Dave Marshak didn’t quite know how right he was when he uttered those few words. This movie is #3 on our countdown for one reason and one reason alone…it’s fucking hilarious. It has no discernible stars to speak of (except for a few guys you’ll also [...]
Footage of Jonny Moseley pulling out a dinner roll during his 2002 Olympic bump run in Salt Lake City. Gotta love the dive into the crowd after the finish…
Ahhh, it’s so nice to have Aesop Rock back. His first two label releases, Float (2000) and Labor Days (2001), sent signals of a massive underground talent to be reckoned with. His beats are strange, dark and beautiful, and he has such a unique cadence to his rhyming that’s hard to compare to [...]
