RUTHLESS

Sep 2017 - 1K views

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...

#TribeUP "RUTHLESS"!

Panda Poles Season Highlight Reel 2K17 dropping soon... Stay tuned!

"You know, even though I've skied half way around the world, I've somehow managed to ski the same chairlift for most of my life. It's not that I don't like other chairlifts. And it's not that I don't like hiking. It's just that this is home. It's where my heart lives. And no matter how hard I try to leave, my heart keeps coming back. The Skyline Chairlift will forever hold its place in my heart.

And now I have the honor of giving that gift to my son..."

- Panda Chief TanSnowMan

PPSHR2K16: Shred The Rock

by PandaPoles
Sep 2016 - 554 views

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...

PPSHR 2K15: The Rock

by PandaPoles
Nov 2015 - 635 views

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...

PPSHR 2K15: BELIEVE

by PandaPoles
Oct 2015 - 768 views

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!

"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"...

Ski The Rock: Cha Cha

by PandaPoles
Mar 2015 - 847 views

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!

SkiTheRock: Shredded Expectations

by PandaPoles
Dec 2014 - 638 views

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?
