#Vans Team Rider Eric Willett cruised through the Dew Tour Slopestyle Semifinals on Wednesday and qualified in third place for Sunday's main event. This gave him plenty of time off to relax and prepare — which apparently means taking practice laps through the course holding a GoPro. Check out this sick video filmed by the man himself on Eric's facebook page.

On top of further progressing women's snowboarding last season by busting a Back Seven over the infamous Mt. Baker Road Gap, Hana Beaman further upped the ante with her P.S. webisodes by crewing up with a couple other backcountry mavens, Robin Van Gyn and Leanne Pelosi. After watching their collective footage and their recently-released flick Intervals, it made sense to get a behind-the-scenes perspective of this trifecta's time spent riding hard throughout the Pacific North West from ...

Vans Bridger Vest ($100) Vests are kind of like the redheaded stepchild; they’re easily overlooked. We tend to toss on a hoodie or a flannel because it’s easy and comfortable, but a vest adds that extra layer of style and function. This one from Vans has that classic two-tone outdoorsman look and insulates properly with down feathers. It’s not the most technical, but it’s a choice look for the streets to the shred. Pick one up ...

These boots look like classic Vans Skate-His, OG skate shoes. It’s rad when you’re riding and you look down, you can almost image skateboarding. The best part is that they have some tech going on inside, but don’t look like a spaced out ski boot. —Hondo (via twsnow.com)

EDITOR REVIEW: You must under stand that “to infuse” is just a polite way of saying “to spike” or “to dose.” That being said, the new Vans Infuse is certainly spiked with performance enhancing properties. Take for instance the Hybrid Boa system. It blends the proven workings of laces with the next level tech of Boa’s lifetime warranty closure system. Focusing on the critical instep area, this adjust-on-the-fly option locks it down. It also eliminates bad trips altogether, while ...

There is no better place to go ride pre-season and get warmed up for a year of filming than Bear Mountain. Scott Stevens, Joe Sexton, LNP, Darrell Mathes, Chris Grenier, Sam Taxwood, and more headed out to Bear for some good times.

Words and photos: Larry Nuñez The entire West Coast finally got what they needed last weekend: a major storm that pounded the mountains with multiple feet of fresh snow. From Mammoth Mountain to the Sierras and into the Pacific Northwest, white gold rained down and allowed many resorts to fully open for the 2012/13 season. The Rockies got their fair share as well, with resorts in Utah and Colorado receiving a bit of moisture. But one of the resorts ...

Creativity and action sports have always gone hand-in-hand – something demonstrated on the latest film released by our friends over at Looking Sideways, in which they document the process that saw a huge crowd-sourced mural get turned into an exclusive range of LS X Endeavor x Vans Snowboards. The project came about as part of the huge exhibition the crew put on at the Vans Wangl Tangl event in Austria back in March. Artists featured included Ed Templeton, Schoph and Blaise ...

Brooke finally figured that Intern is actually not really Justin’s name and maybe, just maybe, he’s worth keeping around. To thank her for the promotion, Justin heads to MapleXO to pick up some handmade jewelry made out of recycled skateboards, but things don’t go quite as he planned. (via YoBeat.com)

Darrell Mathes is one of the most stylish riders in snowboarding. From Technine to Mack Dawg, and “Love/Hate” to “The Darkside,” Darrel has brought his approach of good tricks done proper to the masses. He also seems to be someone who is always on to something when it comes to styles such as clothes, photography, and even his new Howl glove line. On the music side of things, Darrel’s parts have always featured good music. I’d have ...
