Panda Poles @ The 2014 Beartooth Summer Session
The Panda Tribe at the 4th annual Beartooth Summer Session
As a member of the Panda Tribe since our beginnings, Tyson McDonald has been stoking the Panda fire for years. He has evolved from an untamed stunt monkey into a legitimate player in the freeride scene, and last season he proved that he is not afraid to take it to the limit... #TribeUP @tysonmcfilthy!

What most of our fans probably don't realize, is that if not for Icelantic Skis, Panda Poles probably would not exist today. This is the history of the Icelantic x Panda Poles collab...
If there's one thing we can say about our boy Lee Swassing is that the homey can send... His skiing last season was absolutely ruthless! Full-on, cranked way past 11!
But on-point, nonetheless...
Although he can make some really beautiful turns, it just so happens that 95% of our footage of Lee is of him sending 40 footers...

"Why do you want to take it to the level of 'extreme? Why does human nature drive us to push it to the limit? What type of extreme technique to you need to become extreme? What is extreme skiing?!"
-Chuck Mumford (American Ski Actor/Motor Sports Enthusiast)
Dive into the controversial topic, and take it to the limit with Chuck, OWA, and TanSnowMan, as they go "Extreme Turbo", or as some call it, "E.T"...

2013 may have been a lack luster year for snowfall, but that didn't keep us from having an absolute blast on the ski hill! There's always plenty of laughter and stoke to go around. Sit back and enjoy some of our favorite clips from last season's on-hill antics... Disc 2 to come soon...
After several years of below average snowfall, and last year having one of the lowest snowpacks in the history of the western U.S., it's easy to become discouraged by skiing's potentially detrimental future. And if you pay attention to the news, it's easy to feel that the whole world is falling apart.
However, there are those of us that believe that regardless of whether the first day of the season gets rained out, or it hasn?t snowed in weeks and there is dirt showing everywhere. Or even if it seems like the whole world is going crazy, the mountain is our temple, and every joyful jump and turn is an expression of our heart, and a prayer for world peace...
May we present to you, Part I of III of the Panda Poles Season Highlight Reel 2K15!
BELIEVE!
When the snow cakes 'The Rock' like it has this season, the local Panda Tribe grabs their saddles, and they Pony UP!
Better grab the reins and hold on tight!

With record low snowfall across much of the Western US this year, it is easier than ever to feel the potential threat of the diminishing habitat of the snow enthusiast.
And with this apparent loss of habitat is a loss of morale. An overall loss of stoke.
A small group of individuals in SouthEast Idaho has set out to keep their stoke alive, and in doing so has created their own snow dance for the spirits. How do you say? Ah, yes... Cha Cha!

Another installment of Oakley White-Allen and the Panda-Cam. Get Hyphy-nated...
TanSnowMan at his home mountain Pebble Creek
The first day of the season may have ended after only 3 runs, and it may have rained to the top of the mountain the following night... There may have only been a 36" base for most of the season, and the mountain may have closed a month early... Regardless of the conditions, a few passionate individuals managed to make the most of Pebble Creek's "worst season on record", and had an absolutely radical time with their friends and fellow Panda Tribe members at "The Rock"!
It's not the conditions that dictate the quality of the season. It's the amount of stoke one can cultivate that creates the richness of anyone's on-snow experience...

Without further ado, may we present Part II of the "2017 Panda Poles Season Highlight Reel"...
Tribe UP "Glory"!
Filmed on location at Pebble Creek Ski Area, Beaver Mountain, Kelly Canyon Ski Resort, and Cherry Peak Resort.
Part I of the 2016 Panda Poles Season Highlight Reel, this is "Shred The Rock"!
Filmed entirely on GoPro Hero 4 and iPhone 6.
The Panda spirit is a gentle soul. Although they could so easily shred flesh, they choose to mostly shred bamboo. However, such as with the balance of black and white, there are moments when the Panda spirit is placid, and yet there are times when the Panda fire comes alive! It is in these moments that the Panda spirit chooses to shred that of snow and rock...
