Red Bull Ultra Natural 2013 - Biggest event in Snowboarding...

Pat Moore flies the open skies at Red Bull Ultra Natural.

Last year it was Supernatural, now the team at Red Bull along with main brain stormer, Travis Rice, present the Ultra Natural. Backcountry terrain mixed with man made saddles, drop offs and jumps with some of the top riders in the world over one day. This event takes riding to another level!
In the end, Austria's Gigi Rüf stood on top of the podium after putting together a creative run showcasing his unique style, utilizing a variety of both the natural and man-made features on the mile long course. Switzerland's Nicolas Müller not only took second place but was also presented the Best Trick Award with a gigantic mute air over a tree, sending himself nearly 100-feet down the 45+ degree course.
Rounding out the podium was Southern California's Bryan Fox, a first-timer at Red Bull Ultra Natural and a late addition to the event as a wildcard entry.

Southern Tip Snowboarding - Winter is almost here...

Yes happy snow fans of the deep south of Africa, summer draws to a close and the winter approaches. Judging by the last few winters and the insanely hot summer, I am calling a winter of dumps and Pow! So to get you into the mood, here is a great little edit from last year's Quiksnow SA Champs, by our man, Lebo. I cannot recommend enough, how good Afriski has become and what a great time can be had at the Quiksnow weekend. Book soon, places are minimal.

Travis Rice went big to win his own Competition.

The coolest event in Snowboarding finally made it onto American Television over the weekend and we can only hope, that somehow the show makes it to SA Screens. In the meantime here is the full web video to salivate over. Supernatural is the brain child of Red Bull and Travis Rice and takes the free riding from their films, such "the Art of Flight" into a terrain area for competition. Enjoy the video...

 

The Friday Mix - RIP Michael Peterson, Perfect Powder Run & Monster Girls at the F1

MP the legend in action!

The surfing world lost one of it's biggest stars this week, with the death of Michael Peterson. He was a true originator in the first days of professional surfing, an absolute hooligan and an eccentric visionary in the water. No one understood him, but everyone loved to watch him surf.

Also in the mix today, a picture perfect on board run in Jackson Hole. With the Northern Winter Season coming to an end, we can only hope this winter in SA has some proper dumps so we can go pow pow riding in Lesotho. Then to end off, check out the life of the Monster Energy Girls at the first F1 of the season. They have it so rough, haha, not...
