Is anything like this ever going to come back? Those videos were dank. I just got done watching all 3 and it reminded me of when I didn't know about newschoolers and just lived on Freeskier. Ah, good days.

sidenote: what do they do at the end of this one?

episode 1 part 2 there's a shot where the 2 guys slide a rail together while holding hands and then hug afterwards.   pretty damn funny/gay.

I credit the Road Trip Challenge with giving birth to a slew of video blogs and other similar media.

I watch TC and thank RTC...I watch 90% of the other video blogs and I curse RTC.

RTC was brilliant and just unbelievably entertaining. What a great group of personalities. Sort of funny how poor the skiing is for the most part and even funnier that it just didn't matter.

This would be so sick. It would be even better if we could wait until next summer that way I could do it.

Freeskier dropped the ball so hard on this project. It was such a sick idea! One of the best they've ever had over there in my opinion. I'm stoked to have been involved and NS should absolutely do a similar video blog project.

At the end of that one episode, they went into some church choir recital (Hath knew someone there I think? idk)... and from what I can remember, threw some shit down the stairs outside the recital and ran out after it made the huge noise. Or something along those lines anyway.

It had absolutely nothing to do with any challenges, but made for a pretty funny clip.

Pretty much. I think it was an induced coma (maybe he was just sedated? idk) for a little while after he bashed his head at Okemo. That shit was really scary at the time. Glad he's ok now.

It's such a bummer the rest of the footage was never released/used anywhere.

God damn RTC got me into freestyle skiing. I remember sitting in the back of Physics class freshman year and watching them over and over again. I miss it so much.

RTC pretty much started ski video blogging. Too bad they couldn't finish a season.
