Onboard, Luka and Gerome hit up the APX Lodge in Silverton!!!

Dragon Euro riders, Luka Jeromel and Gerome Mathieu thought it was about time they headed to the APX Lodge in Silverton to see what all the fuss was about. Sami from Onboard Magazine was kicking about and decided that he'd join us for the trip. Luka was already shooting in Mammoth so he had an easy flight over to Colorado. Gerome however was out in Norway shooting with the Pirates, so had to endure a 24 hour journey, followed by a 4 hour wait for Prendi. Sorry Gerome!

The Dragon house. SWEEEEET!!!

 Next morning was bluebird, so after only 4 hours sleep we got into our riding shizz and of course our APX and headed out to scope some spots.

Scoping spots

Instructions for ready made kicker. Just add shredders.

Alex Pashly is running the whole operation and knew that this kicker spot (above) was good to go. So with a quick re-shape the kids started throwing down.

Take off clean. Booter ready to go!

I don't get many days that start off that good. Both Luka and Gerome stuck the first hit. Gerome with a switch back 180 and Luka with a BS7. Gerome then started doing Switch BS 9's and 10's, and on his last hit, came up short and caught the wind lip... But managed to do a weird butter tap type thing and then drop another 5m. Looked sick!

Through the viewfinder of the camera, Luka's day looked painful. He got the BS7 from two angles, but then wanted a FS7. That's where it started getting messy. Some of gnarliest rag-dolls I've ever witnessed. The edit will be online tomorrow. Be sure to check it out!

The landing after the session

It was a little late in the day to get another spot done, so we drove around beautiful Silverton to check out some ghost towns and some old mine shafts that could be potential jibbing spots.

The team after a good day

Prendi in the filming capacity. Stoked to get some shots!

The hat is the caption

The nice people at Contour had sent us some cameras. So we'll be busting them out tomorrow.

Alex cooked up an amazing pork chop dinner, which went pretty well with a few beers. After that, we pretty much just chilled and enjoyed some sunshine. Alrighty, gonna catch some Zzzzzzzz.

Check back tomorrow!

Europe’s Leading Snowboard Mag and Australia’s premier Filming Crew Make Their Way to Dragon’s APX Cabin for a final round of Epic Pow.

 Onboard Magazine, the Go Seek film crew, Dragon’s pan-European team, and our favorite Ausi shredders are heading to the APX cabin in Silverton, Colorado, for the final showdown this weekend.

Transfer Magazine will be filming for their latest film Go Seek and featuring the APX cabin as their ultimate destination. Sitting at an altitude of over 12,000 feet and dubbed the APX cabin, the facility is designed to test the revolutionary APX goggle in the most extreme conditions and serves as the perfect backdrop for the Go Seek crew.

Canada and Silverton Co, Together At Last

The crew have arrived, they have selected their chosen APX goggle and we are making our way to the APX Cabin in the back-country of Silverton for some no big deal product testing.

Confessions of an X-Games (trip) winner

This season we wanted to say thanks to our best UK retailer by giving them an all expenses paid trip to the X-Games in Tignes, France. The winner of the trip was Ollie Maslin from Bucks boarding center. Here's his diary of the trip;

Hair straighteners + a ton of gel + hair spray + inverted blow dry = the above

Getting on board the sleazy-jet flight in Luton. Destination, Geneva!

The APX!!!

Killing some time on the flight to check out the new APX goggles that Craig (our UK rep) just delivered to me when he dropped me at the airport.

Easy Jet wing... Oh and the Alps in the background

Approaching the Alps from the Swiss. Not too much snow, but we made the most of it.

The view from our room

After taking a wrong turn and ending up somewhere near to Italy, we finally made it to Tignes. We heading straight of to the Monster party at Jacks club where we managed to blag some VIP wrist bands. Free drinks all night! Sweet!

Monster party. Free bar!

The hangover was tough, but I forced myself out of bed and off up the hill for a bit of shred time.

Hooked up with some friends from back home...

Looking steezy, hehe

... did some follow cams...

... and showed the kids how it's done. After that we headed off to a restaurant with the Dragon team for some traditional French grub.

I took it pretty easy at the Dragon dinner as I'd heard word that the forecast was bluebird and didn't want to be hanging. I wasn't disappointing, check the photo below;

High in the Alpine. Yeah Tignes, you were rad!

After a long day on the hill, I headed down to watch the mens final of the half pipe. Again, I managed to blag an all area pass, so I didn't have to stand at the bottom with the commoners.

Standing at the bottom is for common people

That's more like it. In the royal gallery with aristocracy.

The mega pipe

Well yeah, that was my trip to Tignes. Thanks Dragon, it was a banger, let's do it again next year!
