Sit back and enjoy the new Sexual Snowboarding teaser for the Helgasons and co’s third movie, DTF!

Wowzers, it seems it’s teaser time again. Enjoy the bangers and bails from Eiki Helgason, Halldor Helgason, Ethan Morgan, Gulli Gudmundsson, Leo Crawford, Kevin Backstrom, Tor Lundstrom, Ulrik Badertscher and more.

To say that Hoppipolla headwear has a good team is doing a disservice to the word ‘understatement’. With a team that reads like a who’s who of contemporary Scandic talent, this March team edit is predictably bolts. Check it…

Riders: Eiki Helgason, Halldor Helgason, Stale Sandbech, Kalle Ohlson, Alek Oestreng, Erik Botner, Torgeir Berre, Gulli Gudmundsson, Toni Kerkela and Lonnie Kauk.

Not only were we blown away by the setup knocked together for the burn Rail Jam in Istanbul, we were also floored by how many people showed up to watch the likes of Eiki Helgason, Gulli Gudmundsson and Ludde Lejkner get wild. Sick riding too.

Check out Halldor and Eiki hiting up the Val Senales booter with homies Ethan Morgan and Tor Lundström in tow. We could watch Halldor’s insane double barrel rolls all day. So sick!

Arguably the best movie that hit our computer screen this fall was the Helgasons’ 2012 effort Pepping. Why? Even though anticipation was high and they had some problems delivering their masterpiece on time they delivered a unique mix of off-piste antics and insane snowboard stunts by Eiki Helgason, Halldor Helgason, Gulli Gudmundsson, Ethan Morgan, Eero Ettala and many more. And best of all: The Open part was a collection of their fans’ footage.

Eiki, Halldor and their homie Gulli Gudmundsson do what they describe as ‘fucking shit up’ at their Icelandic home town of Akureyri. Looks way funner than triple corks. However, should you want more drama from these three amigos may we direct you to their movie, Pepping!, where you can watch them risking life and limb as every true pro snowboarder should.

What has been soberly called “Eiki Helgason’s full part from the 2011/2012 season” on Helgasons.com we call a fucking hammerfest by the old half of the Icelandic snowboard geniuses. This is a mix of tricks from the Helgason’s free full movie Pepping and a lot of new/unseen/whatever footage.  Ski poles, kickflips, crazy antics, and a raw love for the shred: This edit has it all. Watch it now and get your daily dose of stoke.

Big names in skateboarding and snowboarding have come together to build the world’s largest community of skateboarders and snowboarders by launching Spot Digger – The App for finding the best Skate- and Snowboarding spots around the world. Spot Digger has been originally founded by Eero Ettala and Fredu Sirviö and has an impressive global team of professional riders behind it. The development of the Spot Digger app has been financed by Samsung Finland.

Spot Digger is a location based social mobile application and internet service that lets users search, find, share and rate the best skate and snow spots, and lets them add their favorite ones to the map and list favorite locations. The users will create the content by adding their own spots. The application lets users see all the spots on the map and in a list view. They can also search for specific locations filtered by distance, name, rating and type. They can check in to spots, add photos and information about their own locations and rate other’s spots and pictures. In the news feed, users can see in real time what others are up to;

“I check the Spot Digger news feed all the time to check where my friends shred.” Says Halldor Helgason, Spot Digger team rider.

Spot Digger has an impressive global team of professional riders behind it; the snowboard team includes global super stars: Eero Ettala, Mark McMorris, Aaron Biittner, Fredu Sirvio, Halldor Helgason Eiki Helgason and Heikki Sorsa. The skateboard team includes professional skateboarders: Madars Apse, Jaakko Ojanen, Simo Makela, Jesse Turunen and Pirkka Pollari and more joining soon.

The team members will be an active part of the Spot Digger community. They will create content such as blog posts on spotdigger.com, videos and pictures for Spot Digger, list their own favorite spots while travelling the world taking part in the biggest contests and filming for the most popular skateboard and snowboard movies.

“I used to have hundreds of spots in my head and finally there is a way to store them all on my phone. I feel like I have tons of free brain capacity again.” Says Eero Ettala, one of the founders.

With Spot Digger you have all the spots in the world in your pocket plus you can easily see what your friends and professional riders are up to. Spot Digger offers an easy way to follow your friends, the pros and your favorite brands. Samsung Finland is Spot Digger’s main launch partner and actively participates in related events. “Samsung is passionate about sports and we think that snow- and skateboarding are really exciting pursuits. We have been involved in organizing sports-related events in the past and have developed products, such as the Galaxy Xcover, that offers durability and are perfect for snow- and skateboarders. We’re excited to be a part of the Spot Digger launch as it is a cool, new innovation that helps snowboarders and skateboarders find the best spots to do their thing”, says Samsung Finland’s marketing manager Eva Carrero.

The application was launched worldwide for Android during Board Expo trade fair 2nd -4th November 2012 in Helsinki. The iOS version of the application will be launched worldwide in the beginning of January 2013.

Eiki and Halldor Helgason hit up Saas Fee earlier this autumn and threw down a bunch of funboarding, bangers and kicker overshoots with homies Ethan Morgan, Tor Lundström and more. Watch them fly!
