TanSnowMan and the local Panda Tribe in Pebble Creek's "Dirty Lines"...
In a world where honor has been replaced by greed. And in a time when the heart has been stifled by fear. There exists a tribe of skiers and snowboarders, whose only goal is to ensure their own happiness?And the happiness of those who surround them? These are the masters of play and the tellers of truth? Living in a place of fearlessness, and in a time of trust? They have no enemies outside of their own minds? They have no doubts in the goodness that exists? And they never take themselves too seriously... This is the Panda Tribe? These are spirits of Honor and warriors of the Heart... #TRIBEUP!

Part III of the 2015 Panda Poles Season Highlight Reel, this one's all about gratitude. There is only one ?I? in gratitude, and any one person?s happiness is a direct reflection of what they are grateful for...
We at Panda Poles know that regardless of the conditions, any day of skiing is a blessing and a luxury, and for that, we are eternally grateful for this sport...

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...
Emotions run high this time of year. And so do expectations. And whether it be because power goes out to the whole ski area on opening day, or it ends up raining to the top of the mountain on the very next, the love of skiing, and the convenience of being swept to the top on a floating chair creates the illusion that anything less is pretty much painful. So when the power does go out after 3 glorious laps on opening day, and when the rain does reach the top of the mountain on the very next, it?s important to remember that this is just the start--just the warm up--to what can only be another amazing season on the snow?

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...
