Tatum Monod Double Backflip

Tatum started out the week in Retallack with a claim that she was going to land her first double back flip. With blue skies on our last day and a well build kicker she made good on her promise.

RETALLACK; There’s no better place (or people) on earth.

We’ve been working with the Retallack crew for 6 years now.  We’ve developed product with them, we outfit their guide staff, we’ve shredded endless pow out of the lodge, we’ve built friendships and have created memories with them that will last a lifetime. There’s something special about traveling deep into the Kootenay Mountain Range of British Columbia, where cell phones don’t work, old mine shafts litter the mountain side and reality tv shows seem not to exist.  It’s one small town after another as you head out of Spokane Washington on a “B line route” towards the destination of our …

Alex Beaulieu Marchand… A few words with an up and comer named Blomi!

-Salut Alex, Comment vas-tu? // Hey Alex, how’ve you been? Très Bien//Super good -Peux tu me parler un peu de toi? De quel coin viens tu? // Can you talk a bit about yourself? Where are you from, how did you get your start in skiing, what is it about Quebec… so many good park kids?  Je viens de la ville de Québec. Je skie au Mont Sainte- Anne depuis que j’ai 3 ans.

SPOT FEATURE UP RAIL

The Orage crew found this up rail at some random football field in Park City, Utah last winter. It was a mellow session but a fun one. Plenty of bungee pulls and a stuck pole in the fence. B Dog is a machine… we must have pulled bungee for him at least 50 times..

SPOT FEATURE JP PROFILE ALL I CAN

Arguably the most revolutionary film segment of 2011, JP Auclair reinvents urban skiing in a way that only he can. Imagination – All I Can… Sherpas Cinema. Like no other.

SPOT FEATURE RHYTHM RAIL

In this weeks episode, B Dog sizes up a feature for a solo session on our last night in SLC. Watch the way he methodically works this rail like a surgeon.

SPOT FEATURE RETALLACK POWDER AND PERSONALITIES

Retallack is a place unlike any other on planet ski. The Orage team makes the journey to pow heaven an annual event, but not because of the powder alone, more so because of the people we get to chill with while we’re there.

SPOT FEATURE RETALLACK JP

JP Auclair, The Man, The Myth, The Legend and now most notably… super chill guy. Watch JP do what JP does best as he lays it down in deep, delicious BC pow.

SPOT_FEATURE_PC_SKATEPARK

In this episode we hit up the PC skate park with Nate Abbott from Freeskier Magazine during a week long team shoot in Utah. It was day one and we were off to a rough start. We got stranded on top of the Canyons resort due to a wind hold and after burning half a day waiting to download we headed to the park to see what we could find… You win some, you lose some. That’s life in the ski biz.
