“We spent the season following the powder and documenting the life of our riders in Europe, Canada, Japan and Alaska.” 

“We camped out, we hiked a lot, we flew with helicoperters, we froze our feet, we laughs a lot and we got scared as well. All in all another amazing season!”

Völkl armed their crew of riders with GoPros last winter and then cut together this edit of their footage. Click Play for an orgy of faceshots, POVs and selfies.

Lipstick Productions dropped their first all-girl, all-Euro shred flick last season, and now they’re back with a bang with their follow up, EUROTIC. Check the teaser.

Last season’s movie, 5 More Minutes, Please?!, was a decent first stab at dropping a girls’ Euro snowboard movie, but with their second film, dubbed EUROTIC, it looks like they’re gonna knock the ball out the park.

Most of Europe’s noteworthy ladyshreds are part of this project, and with the epic season Europe enjoyed plus trips to further flung places like Iceland and the Former Yugoslavian Republic of Macedonia the movie promises to be a good ‘un.

Starring: Basa Stevulova, Diana Sadlowski, Julia Baumgartner, Lisa Fizmoser, Ana Rumiha, Urska Pribosic, Conny Bleicher, Suray Fernandez, Ursina Haller, Sina Candrian, Aline Bock, Vera Janssen, Margot Rozies, Tini Gruber, Aimee Fuller, Tania Detomas & friends!

Peep 3 mins 14 secs of the Deeluxe team getting wicked. Sick riding from Marco Feichtner, TJ Schneider, Dan Brisse, Xavier De Le Rue, and more.

Some of this you may have seen, some of this you may not have, but if Deeluxe wanted us to watch this and think “Darn, the Deeluxe team rips,” then they can sleep safe in the knowledge that they have suceeded admirably.

This is what they say, and they deserve extra kudos for using the term ‘safety meetings’. These are very important.

One year of developments and innovations, travels, safety meetings, kickers, rails, gnarly lines and most important a lot of fun!
Marco Feichtner, Dan Brisse, Xavier de Le Rue, Elias Elhardt, TJ Schneider, Aline Bock, René Schnöller, Sebi Müller, Tadej Valentan.

Here is the 2011 Deeluxe Team clip.

Völkl just dropped their 2011/2012 team movie called SIGMA. The Völkl team rides powder, grinds ledges, slides rails, hits table tops, pushes doubles and escapes avalanches.

Featured riders: Martin Seiler, Aline Bock, Chris ‘CK’ Kröll, Michi Stanschitz, Keiji Okamoto, Simon Pircher, Michael Schatz, Rob Matera, Roger Schuler, Roy Brönnimann, Patrick Cinca, Patrick Müller, Maria Kuzma

This photo/shred contest has been giving amateurs the chance to step up to the big leagues for a few seasons now, and they’ve just announced they’re back on it for the 11/12 season with the unveiling of the winter’s first Snowpark Rally mission: SILHOUETTES. Get involved.

Mission 1 – Silhouettes is on from NOW until January 17 2012, watch the video above for the deets, so get your crew together, get creative on the hill and ship your shot over on www.snowparkrally.com. For each mission there’s a bunch of swag up for grabs from Burn, Völkl and Onboard for who the riders and pro photographers judge to be the best shots.

The overall winners from each of the missions will be invited to send it with the Burn and Völkl pros like Gigi Rüf, Werni Stock, Chris Kröll and Aline Bock on an all expenses paid trip to the Showdown Finale at the Hotzone.tv Snowpark Gerlos and its surrounding backcountry from March 29 to April 1, 2012, with some even more awesome prizes to be won for the overall winners of the Finale.

And this would be a surf trip with the Völkl guys for the winning crew, and the photographers will also get to head to the Burn team shoot. You don’t need us to tell you that’s quite the opportunity.

So grab your camera, assemble your crew and get it done. Further information please visit www.snowparkrally.com

We had a fireside chat with Lipstick Productions’ Conny Bleicher the other day about what went down and what we could expect. Have a gander at that for the backstory and then peep the full shebang right here.

So distracted were we by all the talk of anally bleaching (don’t ask) that we forgot to ask about the story behind the rather cryptic name of the movie. Wonder no more as we hit up Conny again who dispelled our altogether seedier theory. Kinda… “The name already came up when we were looking for a production name. It’s basically that women always need 5 more minutes. They need 5 more minutes in the bathroom, they like to turn around in the morning and sleep 5 more minutes. Same in snowboarding; it takes them 5 more minutes to jump a big booter, to shovel a kicker… We are just a bit lazy and we enjoy being lazy and not stressful! Don’t take everything too serious!”
