Griffen Cummings and Fraser...?

Hey. I saw the clip of these guys in Volume 8 and they looked as though they were really good and were down for the whole gorilla steez. Also Dash Longe mentions them as his favorite riders. What I'm wondering is, why aren't they better known? Where are they from? Who are their sponsors? And how come they aren't more popular? Cuz they seem good to me. I figure it would be cool if these guys skied for the true fun of it and aren't pursueing sponsorships etc. I don't know if thats the case though... Thanks guys.

There is another guy from hood, Ike, he is the shit, Ike, if you are on here I just wanted to tell you that your are the shit. Keep rockin it.
Ike skied 3/4 of last season with one Darkside from like 3 years ago on his left foot, and one darkside from 2 years ago on his right foot, and he still did the dopest rodeos I have ever seen.
All those guys from hood have been skiing the 'Gorrilla Style' before it was called gorrilla style. Its just how they ski. Pollard is really the only one to have gotten any play from the media out of the group.

i think pollard said the reason all of the hood guys have been skiing like that was because the people on hood are (predominantly) racer or snowboarder. those guys didnt have any freestyle influnce around them so they tried snowboarding-ish stuff.

Griffin helped make those Solutions TwinTips about four years ago, he also helped out around COC back in the day, maybe he still does I don't know. Anyways, he was going Pollard style back then, 4 years ago. He's a homie.

fraizer works winters as ski patrol for cascade. He real sick. pollard always thanks him in interview cause he taught pollard alot of stuff about skiing when he switched over. He was on line at the begining, and does do alot of coaching now.

Josh and Griff are both really good guys. Like Andy said...they're in it for the sport, not the fame. Josh patrols and works summers at COC. I think Griff works summers at Windells but I'm not 100% sure about that. Anyhow, both are sick riders who are just out there to do what they love.

josh fraizer is really sick... he was with us (skiboarders) when we were at camp o champs last summer, and he didnt give a shit what we had on our feet, he is a really good guy, and was probably a perfect coach.... if anyone knows how to get a hold of him toss it my way.... he's a really good guy
