I've rounded up a few of my favorite snowboard videos. Mack Dawg is my "instant classic favorite", but I don't think they have a video out yet. Here are some by Forum, Standard Films and Absinthe. I hope you guys like watching snowboard videos in the middle of the summer too!

Here are some snowboard videos that are coming out in 2010.  Make a comment if I am missing any that you would like to share.

Cheers,

http://www.cbc.ca/canada/calgary/story/2010/07/29/banff-sunshine-village-stunt-killed-court-overturn-ski-resort.html

The CBC is reporting that SSV will not be held accountable for the death of maintainence worker Karl Stunt, 25. Karl was reported to have 'died of massive head injuries after he was hit by a metal bar while working on a chairlift at the Banff resort."

Did you know Karl, or have any contact with this incident? Post your thoughts below. It's certainly tragic to see a young life snuffed out so soon, and by doing a job that enables others to have fun.
