Tuesday, July 27th, 2010

HCSC Digger Chris Grenier is a horrible security guard. Great actor though.


Stop what you are doing and GO WATCH THIS MOVIE!

It features Signature Sessionerâ„¢ Jed Anderson, HCSC’s 1st Signature Sessionerâ„¢ ever Scotty Arnold, Frenchy Louis-Félix Paradis, HCSC perma-guest Bode Merrill and HCSC Digger Chris Grenier (as a security guard – Chris was hurt) and was made by filmmakers: ex HCSC Session Video Producer Justin Meyer and Pierre Wikberg (who comes from another country).

Congrats boys!  Can’t wait to go shred tomorrow after watching this.

Session 5: The Videograss Session Kicks Off

Tuesday, July 27th, 2010

A High Cascade 15 Passenger Chariot pulling into the Session 5 Stable. Unload bags. Check In. Let the good times roll.

The whole Videograss gang is here for Mikey LeBlanc, Darrell Mathes, Laura Hadar and Desiree Melancon’s Signature Sessionâ„¢. The agenda for the week is looking pretty all time with the Videograss world premier for “Bon Voyage” going down Thursday Night at the High Cascade Theater (shhh! it’s a secret, so please don’t spread the word).

Justin Bennee, LNP, Alex Cantin, the Hacker brothers, Louif Paradise, Johnny Miller, Jordan Mendenhall, Will Tuddenham, Chris Grenier, Harrison Gordon and Nick Dirks are lurking around camp all week putting on special on-hill clinics, activities and more.

Of note: this session is a Signature Sessionâ„¢ Size World Record.

High Cascade's staff ready to get Session 5 rolling

We’re also sooooooooooo psyched that a few long time HCSC family members brought a few groups to camp.  Ex-counselor Mike Ramirez is here with the Mammoth Mountain Snowboard Team and ex-coach Nick Nagel is here with the Winter Park Team.  Plus, a group from the Chill foundation will be our guests this session… it’s going to be a blast.

Snagging a Camper T

Hopefully this guy knew he was awesome before getting a camper shirt at check-in. At least now he has a shirt to prove it.

Sticker Kit

Campers getting their sticker jobs ready for tomorrow: FDOH (that's First Day On Hill to the lay person) - one guy was so excited his face started to blur... but Nurse Greg fixed him.

Cookin' up!

Lead Cook Jake grilling up some shiskabobs at the BBQ. Fresh, local organic food from Mt. Hood Produce in Hood River, OR... No big deal - the K-Unit holds it down.

The Session 5 Gang

This is our 100% snowboarder packed crew! The Session 5 gang seems like an amazing group. Good times guaranteed.

Rock Paper Scissors

Assistant Camp Director Adam Kisiel (aka Kisiel) keeps tabs on perhaps the most heated game of RPS (rock, paper scissors) of the summer. Camper Griffin vs. Signature Sessionerâ„¢ (and HCSC Digger!) Desiree Melancon (Des won!).

Tim's Eddy's Group

You could scour the face of this planet - and you'd be hard pressed to find a better human to spend 8 days of your life with than this man: TIM EDDY. Tim and his coaching group coming up with a game plan for Session 5.

LDOH!!

Think Thank Movie World Premier: Right Brain/Left Brain

Sunday, July 11th, 2010
20100709-Blatt-untitled-IMG_6491.jpg

'Signature Sessioner', Jesse Burtner and crew premiered their newest snowboarding flick, ‘Right Brain/Left Brain’ up at HCSC last night – great movie, great crew, good times… P/Blatt

Jesse Burtner and the crew from Think Thank have done it again!!!  We just had the privalege of premiering a super-sneak-peak of the soon to be released feature film “Right Brain/Left Brain”.  This movie was fresh out of an all-night last minute editing marathon and was played right off of Burtner’s lap top. (doesn’t get any fresher than this)

It was a dizzying display of one footed feats, heavy tricks, relentless humor and more creative snowboarding than ever seen before.

An estimated 650 viewers packed into HCSC’s Skate Bowl Theater to stare wide eyed and dropped jawed at the big screen for one heck of a movie.  Stand out parts were too many to name: yet failing to mention Scott Steven’s part would be egregious. One-footed-backflip-mid-invert-chairlift-karate-kick? Yup.  That just happened.

If you only purchased one movie this fall Right Brain/Left Brain would be the no-brainer decision.

Check the Teaser:
