Holy frig what a week, glad I found the time to really comb through everything because there was no shortage of content pouring into the site. Things are heating up for real, and it shows, let's get into it.

Monday morning's release of IMAGINATIONS
delivered the kick I needed to get my ass out of bed and once again start my daily grind. @Thib_Magnin is a baller plain and simple, and I hope we start seeing him more because I'm a fan, and It didn't take much convincing.----
A crew that eats Annie's mac and cheese together, STAYS together. We can only hope so anyway, because I'ma need a part 2 to WOCKY SLUSH. @Bhikmate1 and the gang at Killington linked up and shut it down in the Woodward park, and I know I've said it before, but this is another great example of what fun with your friends looks like. Yee lames take notes, this is what it's about.

The psychos are BACK. The @Trollhaugen mob released the first episode of this season's volume of Human Being on Wednesday, and everyone straight-up looks like some shit sent to Earth to beat Tammy Whamsticks in a game of SLVSH or something. I was bouncing in my chair watching this, it never gets old.

@ARMADA put out Joint Efforts episode 7 on Thursday, and if you're looking for wholesome backcountry short this week, Maude, Brita, and Malou have got you covered. The girls headed out to BC for a little decompression, and reconnection with what it was that had them fall in love with skiing in the first place.
----
It's finally here...Torin Yater-Wallace and Jossi Wells linked up after coming off their season-ending injuries and took it to the backcountry in their newest short with TGR called DEVIATE. These two, mixed with the wicked locations they shot in, make for an easy time stacking clips, and that's just what they did, pumped to see these guys back.

This week in the News tab, we saw the highs, and we saw the lows... But we're all good news here, so to start us off, @MattMasson dropped the news of Will Wesson's newest video series, which is definitely a high point in the week. Will's been dreaming of putting together a project like this for some time now, and finally, the stars have aligned. They have their own snowcat, cabin, and ski-hill, where we can build anything we want to." Uhh ya, that's a dream come true for sure, Cant wait to see what it brings.
The amount of work that @cydwhit puts out on a weekly basis never ceases to maze me. First was this awesome personal retrospective piece about the evolution of his relationship with skiing, which brought me DANGEROUSLY close to tearing up. Then later in the week published a display of his colorful style along with some creative takes on alternative ski vehicles, this was awesome.
@SkierPT had a great interview with @djikstra all about injuries and the physical therapy required for recovery. One of my personal favorite comeback stories, super cool to see the journey from this perspective.
Following @Twig s' NS Editor's Picks for park skis this season, we finally get a look at the picks for this season's Best All- Mountain Skis. Solid list pulled together from the team, and interesting choice including @Kretzschmar in the selection process, because we all know he doesn't ACTUALLY ski.

Speaking of the Editors picks, why not get your name in the drawing for one of the favorites from the reviewed park skis? K2 is giving away a pair of their Reckoner 102's. Need some convincing other than the painfully easy entrance process? go read The official Roofbox Review, and THEN tell me it's not worth it. These things are sweet, so head over here to get your name in the drawing!

What a week, so much to sift through that I know is worth looking at, so head to the latest Videos to catch up, and tell me if I missed anything!
