Another Few Days in Utah...

Our destination: Mt. Raymond

This past week I found myself back in Utah with the goal of getting some still photos. The last few days have been action packed with lots of skinning, hiking, standing around while waiting for the light, skiing pow, hanging out with my Utah buddies and watching Chad's Gap get hit by Mike Wilson and crew.

Beautiful scenery on our lengthy skin to Mt. Raymond

Let's Send Iris to AK!!


This winter I have been competing in the NorthFace Masters. I have had consistent solid performances in the Masters. That has earned my invitation from Nick Perata to compete in The King of The Hill during Tailgate Alaska in Valdez, April 3-11. I am pursuing my dreams and passion snowboarding in this event, I am so excited to represent Tahoe and shred like I do here! I'm so grateful for my sponsors support of gear and limited travel funds to help make this happen, but I really need the most important support of my home town to really make it a reality. I'm raffling off all my extra gear, donated prizes from local resorts and businesses and a day of private coaching with myself at Squaw Valley USA. BassHeavy drops sweet beats and good vibes every Thursday, so come out, have a good time, support, get some raffle tickets and win some gear this Thursday, March 18 at Bar of America and next Thursday, March 25 at Lanza's. Big thanks in advance for your support and huge thanks to my sponsors, Signal, Smith, Porterstahoe.com, O'neill, Bula and Squaw Valley USA.

Nick Visconti wins Nike 6.0 "The Farm" Contest in Germany

Last month I was invited to the Nike 6.0 "The Farm" Contest. It was outside of Munich, Germany. Good riders good people, good sausage! Check it out! ~Nick~



From the Nike6.0 website:
"On Sunday, February 7th 2010 twenty international riders came together for an invitational Best Trick session at an abandoned farm close to Munich, Germany.
Amazing tricks went down during the heated session held in a cash-for-tricks mode. For a total purse of €10.000, invited riders including Jed Anderson, Nick Visconti, Louis-Felix Paradis, Marc Swoboda, among others, brought out their best tricks.
Nike 6.0 supported the locals, including team rider Basti Rittig, in setting up a stunning jib park, made out of natural materials that served as the location for this stunning event. And naturally, the park will be around for the locals to shred whenever there is snow…"
