For the past 2 years I have been working with a team out here in California and we have developed an IPTV media platform. The site is called 50-50tv and it is designed to feature and highlight videos from all across the action sports industry.

Our goal is to create an entirely new kind of community. It will be "The action sports collective"- the idea is that this site will be a community/audience of people that is broader than the individual sports the site highlights.

We feature Skating, Surfing, Skiing, and Snowboarding.

Newschoolers has been providing an endless stream of new ski content for the 10 years that i have been following and working in the ski industry. It has been at the top of my website history for a full decade... By also showcasing content from Skating Snowboarding and Surfing and by integrating that into a single platform i am excited to reach an audience that is as dedicated and focused as newschoolers but is also broader than our sport.

I am stoked to already be featuring content from:








and I look forward to featuring many more of you guys... Take a look at the links.

Click register if you are interested in becoming part of the site. Also be sure to take a look at the skate and snowboard content we are featuring... Much more to come as my team and I have a ton of surprises in store...

registering will give you the ability to vote on videos; save a library of your favorite edits; follow your favorite contributors; and create a profile so that you can be tagged in videos you appear in.... Next week we will roll out comments feature; tagging and search

A ton of additional features in the works... We also will be accepting submissions from members. If you register and then submit videos that you want to see featured we will put your edits in front of an audience that is broader than just skiing.

We want to grow the site to include wake board, Mt Bike, BMX etc but we are starting with the four sports our staff are most familiar with.

Scope Re-Jib because after they were miserable failures at trying to be another ski content/facebook/pinterest style page, they rebranded themselves to accommodate a spectrum of action sports. They're very similar in several aspects.

You tell us... If the demand is there we will add it quickly.

What other sports would you guys want us to add?

Hahahaha.... HAHAHAHAHA


I remember when snowboarders wouldn't allow skiers into the park or into contests because, "the demand isn't there".

It's the tell-tale sign of a fucking clueless gaper.

Well I was insulted...

In fact I already dropped Mt. Biking to the bottom of the list just to spite you. Now its in line behind rollerblading and WNBA highlights...

I hope you are happy.

Oh no, if mtbing isn't showcased on your site then... then...


NOTHING HAS CHANGED.


I know you're bluffing. There's no such thing as a WNBA highlight.

You're gonna love them... Good luck watching the whole thing... Then remind yourself that this has been seen 132,000 times...

And that is exactly why skiing needs a bigger platform. (Mt. Bikers welcome.) We will add it in the next few months.
