EXPN recently released a making of video about the That’s It That’s All project by Travis Rice. We saw the movie in avant-première a couple of months ago and really digged this one. Click the read more button to see two other T.I.T.A clips.
The O’Neill Evolution is living up to its name more than ever for 2009, with the 6-star TTR event evolving to push the boundaries of freestyle snowboarding in a way never seen before.
Inspired by the heights to which the riders fly in the world-class quarterpipe at The O’Neill Evolution every year, the idea of playing with and defying gravity has paved the way for its advancement.
Ice sculptures will adorn the kickers and start gates of the new slopestyle course, live music from top bands will be integrated into the heights of the actual course, and its original evening-time format attracting thousands of spectators, ensure that as well as being one of the most challenging and creative events on the TTR World Tour, it is also about getting out there and enjoying the experience. › Continue reading

The 16-year-old French Canadian exploded onto snowboarding’s global stage for the first time in 2006, coming from nowhere as a 13-year-old amateur to win the Empire Shakedown contest in Canada. Since then, Toutant has been busy traveling the globe and cementing his reputation as one of snowboarding’s brightest young talents.
Despite setting the bar so high at such a young age, Toutant hasn’t been fazed by the weight of expectation. Instead, the young rookie has gone from strength to strength. After notching up another victory in Canada at the end-of-season Telus World Ski & Snowboard Festival, the Montreal native traveled south to New Zealand this summer to compete in the Big Air event at the Billabong Snow Stock Festival. It was there that he chose to unleash his signature Tootsie Roll – a double corked backside 1080 – to claim his first career victory on foreign soil. › Continue reading
