Shreddin' with the Legends!

Last year, Volcom and Method had a contest where the winners got a full outerwear set-up. Oh, and an all-expenses paid weekend at the Volcom House in the Arlberg, shredding blower pow in totally secret, locals-only spots to test out said brand new outerwear. Did I mention that Bryan Iguchi and Mike Parillo were there? Yea, I know... not bad, right?

Kalle styles out a tip grab tail bone Gigi landed a few frisky switch methods At the bottom of the run there was a bridge that crossed over the highway to get back to the lift, Kalle 50-50 on the creeper, a mere sheet of plexiglass away from death Gigi wanted a base grind after all the rocks and other debris we rode over on the way down, check out Surfer's Paradise in St. Anton, they'll sort you out proper Oakley gave Kalle signature goggs Photo: TAG We après-ed the shit out of St Anton Photo: TAG Gigi tied Kalle's right arm so he wouldn't get buffaloed, didn't really work though... Photo: TAG Yes, please! Photo: TAG The boys made off with Princess Leia and C-3P-ette Photo: TAG We had to run to make our massage appointment. Group effect in full effect!

Our dinner groups were HUGE Photo: TAG Kalle 'stache frost Photo: TAG Lensman in Chief Serge aka Metal Marc Photo: TAG The next day it was more slush and moguls, Gigi cranks one out Haakon was having fun, SUITCASE! The shitty snow didn't stop Kalle from dropping this thing into a field of moguls We were near the bottom of another mogul field when out of the blue Terje blasted this ollie right over Gigi's head, it was pretty fucking bossy Brothers from different mothers, Terje & his new homie Method tees will get you laid, guaranteed! Terje, Kalle & Jake reppin' hard Photo: Marc Vaudroz Our boards got arrested for being drunk & disorderly while we were inside eating... Freaky! Like I said, always a LOT of heads at dinners, thanx Volcom for hooking it up!

Jona kept feeding Jake beers, kid's on point After a while the boys got used to having cameras stuck in their faces at all times Henning is a WIENER! It dumped overnight and when we made it up winter was back in them thar hills, Gigi & Gnarlberg uber-local Holzi We found a sweet little zone with tons of possibilities, Gigs stomped this method tree bonk... ...and then threaded the needle between these two trees Holzi is a Volcom Family member and has a mean method Terje has timeless style Dude was bouncing and boning everything in sight! Jake launched a SICK roast beef into the deep end Haakon roasted some beef of his own Mad chowder Prokes & Haakon Gigi had snow ear muffins under his beanie Having Michi Albin shredding around with us made it even more special!
