Trevor and Jeff @ Mt. Hood w/ Oakley






So last week Trevor and I along with Todd and Alec from the Orem Milosport and several other shop employees from other shops around the country, got an invitation from Oakley Eyewear to fly up to Mt. Hood for 3 days of shredding.
It was the final session of the season for High Cascade Snowboard Camp witch was Bjorn and Erik Lienes's signature session. So we new we were going to see some sick riding from those two.
The first day was kind of a tough one for all us to get acclimated to riding again but at the end of the day we got a special treat Erik Leines was cooking Habenera Broughts right in front of our condo were he had his camping trailer set up. We went and skated alittle on the HCSC wooden bowls and street course and hit the sack early so we were ready to shred.

By the second day are legs were ready to rip it up mainly sessioning the 1,500 vertical feet of runs still open on Timberline's Palmer snow field and also the jibs, jumps and especially the halfpipe of HCSC. Trevor even started to figure out how to catch air in the pipe.

The third day was much the same as the second with a special bonus, we got to see some amazing riding from legends Scott E. Whitlake and Bobby Meeks and also crazy tech riding from up and comer and HCSC coach Scott Stevens.

Well that was a brief sum up of our trip. We had fun, got to shred with some new friends and old ones and in August to top it off. We like give a special thanks to Oakley, High Cascade Snowboard Camp, Erik & Bjorn Leines (Celtek Gloves) and of course Milosport for working out the schedule so we could go.

Monsoon Hit South Jordan Milosport


Today at sojo milo we got rained out, it was raining so hard that none of the normal shop kids that come here everyday, could come in(very unusual).Today was not like the other day when the RVCA team (check out the RVCA website blog) came in to do a signing and demo at sojo skatepark. The skaters that were here were Leo Romero, Raymond Moliner, David Reyes and Nestor Judkins, they all killed it especially Leo!
.....Anyways back to today, by the power of the gods the rain stopped and the bright and shiny sun came out to shine its humble rays of sunshine upon us. Not to give up hope of the shop rats little Sam came in to hang out and grace us with his presence.

The Bosses Are Gone!


Yup Josh and Cal have left to parts unknown for the next week and a half or so. I guess Josh is exploring somewhere in china for lost treasures. Cal took his family to an exotic island in the south pacific, well Hawaii anyways. I guess somewhat exotic, Cal thinks that he is going surfing. I think that he is to fat and outta shape to even think about it!

What we got going on right now at Milosport is just got in a bunch of the limited edition Vans Syndicate shoes including the classic RAD shoe in several colors have showed up. Get them quick because they are going fast. Also the ES Scale has just come, this is truly the lightest non vulk skate shoe out there for sure.

Anyways thats whats up come in and check it all out and see what mischief we get in well they are gone.
