Assuming you know, but in case you dont, here’s a little brief on Frequency! “

That’s right, the nimbus team has come home in their latest “En Route” webisode. Follow me to the video.
Let the road trip all over the West Coast of America begin.The Nimbus Crew stays close to home, traveling between Andy Mahre’s backyard, down to Cali and Benchetler’s stomping ground, Eastern Oregon and a quick stint at Mount Saint Helens near Mr. Pollards base of operations.Many miles where put on trucks and sleds in pursuit of blue sky, soft landings and big jumps, bringing you the latest installment of “En Route,” presented by K2 Skis.
Not even a bluebird turned puking day could bring down this event. Tons of skiers showed up and threw down a nod to their freestyle roots, walking away with tons of shwag and bragging rights. Organizer and evo employee Chris Shalbot worked the megaphone during the event, calling out challenges to the entrants and handing out prizes.
A boy becomes a man. Happy Birthday Austen! The following is written lovingly by evo team manager Shal-Bot
evo’s youngest team member Austen L. Sweetin was born yesterday in 1991. Austen is the son of two avid skiers, and like most skiing families it wasn’t long before young “Ten” was hitting the slopes.
Over the constricting one-piece adorn for so many years, the lure snowboarding’s free spirit caught his eye. After begging and begging his parents, they finally got him his first board.
What’s better than waking up to clear skies and coffee at 6:30am, driving to Stevens, hiking for pow in the shade all morning, sharing parking lot pounders and winning scratch tickets, and a last sunny afternoon hike to build the perfect spring jump and hang out above the crowd while a goggle tan silently solidifies its way onto your face?
Oh. Nothing. Unless you can do all that and not getting caught in 3 hour long post-shred traffic.
