PortersTahoe.com is proud to announce the addition of Nick Visconti to our snowboard team roster. Nick brings a unique flair for the unconventional whether it be approaching features in his own skateboard-inspired way or belting out show tunes one minute and laying down fresh raps the next.

"I came from the bay but now in Truckee I live and stay with inspiration every day
When I wake up to the cosmic rays I look around and praise
With a smile on my face, every day is a beautiful day
Tahoe is a dream come true shredding on the daily with my crew
From the bay to the mountains I think I found the youth fountain
I feel extremely blessed and so I attribute the rest
To my friends family and Jesus… and to Porters… a shop above the rest!!! – Nick Visconti”

Nick can be seen in Think Thank Productions 2009 movie release COOL STORY now available on DVD. He also can be found sharing some of his insights into his daily life of snowboarding, skateboarding, and other shenanigans on his popular TahoeDangerzone.blogspot.com. He’s teamed up with EasyLoungin.com to bring all of the TahoeDangerZone webisodes to you in high-definition "HD" this season.

Nicky "Fresh" – as he’s also known in the shred community – is a truly unique voice with tons of energy and enthusiasm and technical snowboarding skills. Be on the lookout for his snowboarding adventures, and if you see him slaying it in the park at Tahoe's Northstar, Boreal, or Squaw Valley resorts this year, don't hesitate to walk on up and give him a high five. You'll get even more love from him if you can sing a couple of lines from Kenny Loggins' "Highway to the Danger Zone"!
