Everything else is a direct result to provide content for you tube and America's funniest home videos. As my father would say "That stunt and 75 cents will get you a cup of coffee". Whether your getting hit in the crotch with a baseball or hucking yourself down a rail, you most likely didn't come out of it $500 wealthier....Darien totally did, and her style and grace earned her the first place position on the podium.

No psd files, no wondering what d.p.i. it should be, just a quick drawing of the stuff we want and the way we want it...if we like it, sign the approval included and onward with life we go. simple and easy, the way it should be. fuck photoshop, sometimes pen and paper will be just fine. time to sign the dotted line, new hats 4-5 weeks. once again, patience.</div>Future Primitivehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07066759958490866777noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2797916628461889798.post-73683357023199290632011-10-11T10:34:00.000-06:002011-10-11T10:34:52.456-06:00computer eyes.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqrDJ8DCkuERoh5GI2kQtZFU8MLzXGFhNUROOnfweNiGoTOsbjbZXknK3OwJLvCDmJrKOqdz8egGS3NNq6rfoO8K4_vZPGBMKjO0VeVK_EYySVMJSNcz43v90-tKKZWrhZhCguAPQF71Zr/s1600/fashionforward.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqrDJ8DCkuERoh5GI2kQtZFU8MLzXGFhNUROOnfweNiGoTOsbjbZXknK3OwJLvCDmJrKOqdz8egGS3NNq6rfoO8K4_vZPGBMKjO0VeVK_EYySVMJSNcz43v90-tKKZWrhZhCguAPQF71Zr/s320/fashionforward.jpg" width="64" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #999999;">when i was a younger me my sister received a notification that she was about to get a tennis scholarship to a big name college. she was stoked. however, at the time her english grade was slipping. worried about a loss of scholarship she spent the next few weeks glued to a computer screen diligently working her english papers to perfection. Each word carefully placed, read, and reread in a courier font. When it came time to turn everything in, she hit the printer, went to her room and right to bed. the next morning she woke up blind. her eyes dried up from staring too long at the computer screen or something like that. its actually not that bad, it lasted a few days and she still kept her scholarship. Either way, heres a new board were making at nightmare. i hope im not blind by the time the season kicks in.</span></div>Future Primitivehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07066759958490866777noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2797916628461889798.post-86976837679501891052011-10-05T19:46:00.003-06:002011-10-05T20:13:40.692-06:00losers of the year<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRNxGqdPBDzPHWyXucDWk0Gg8_CVZWzi7ncbrvGMftZC_qyTYJ8wJ8skpclVr2ap9ab3IWunM-5KxYWIwBF8B7YFqqVAKpL6T636kty4H1jSr80fUcOHgayZcWhsARzcyvcEce8vFEotTJ/s1600/IMG_0473.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRNxGqdPBDzPHWyXucDWk0Gg8_CVZWzi7ncbrvGMftZC_qyTYJ8wJ8skpclVr2ap9ab3IWunM-5KxYWIwBF8B7YFqqVAKpL6T636kty4H1jSr80fUcOHgayZcWhsARzcyvcEce8vFEotTJ/s320/IMG_0473.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><br />

Battery 621 as well as a large group of other businesses hosted this event and it turned into a really awesome time for all.</div><div style="color: #cccccc;">After dreaming up and shooting a 90 second video last month we were excited to see some videos from the other entrants as well as rub shoulders with some people that we felt were doing their part to change the snow sports industry. At the end of the night, 4 finalists were announced and nightmare was not among them. We were all stoked anyway, stoked to be printed within the program, stoked to have a display at the event, stoked that we had so much energy and enthusiasm. We were also stoked with the companies that were chosen, truly great Colorado entrepreneurs doing some radical things in the industry. Each final contestant had something unique and special to contribute, and in our opinion, some more than others. Folsom Custom skis has been a pioneer of custom skis for many many years now, his manufacturing facility is located in Boulder and they do everything in house to ensure quality and style. Loki gear was pioneered in Grand Junction and they are breaking all the rules when it comes to outerwear. you really have to see this stuff to understand why its so rad. Condorcam is an upstart with some incredible ideas, a cablecam that is remote controlled, allowing heli style shots without all the rocket fuel (and cash) . Flylow gear has been around for some time, they make sturdy outerwear with a pleasing color palate. Those 4 finalists got to talk a little more about their ideas before the judges made their decision. However the conversation being "judged" was less about the journey of a "risk taking" entreprenuer and more about managing/marketing strategies. The only question that stood out was "Why choose your company over the rest in your market?". This was the most obvious question and one would have thought to be the most anticipated, however the answers were not impressive. They did not hold true to the spirit that set the stage when governor Hickenlooper addressed the group. </div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><br />
</div><div style="color: #cccccc;">We saw this as another opportunity in our journey. We met a ton of other entrepreneurs, everyone had great ideas and has been hard at work trying to break into this game. We look forward to "growing up" with this family of business leaders and developing solid roots here in the state of Colorado. There was also free beer and pizza. just our style.</div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><br />
</div><div style="color: #cccccc;">Flylow gear ended up with the prize for the first annual SI Entrepreneur of the year award. Their booth happened to be loated next to ours for the evening. </div><div style="color: #cccccc;">The nightmare crew was disappointed, not because we didnt win, but because there were at least 3 more deserving businesses that demonstrated all the qualities that the judges were looking for. they had passion, ingenuity, and integrity.</div><div style="color: #cccccc;">They are all businesses that are not planning on moving out of the state of Colorado and manufacturing their gear as cheaply as possible overseas in China. Flylow told us last night that they are doing both.</div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><br />
</div><div style="color: #cccccc;">We want to make some promises right now, these are promises that we made to ourselves years ago when our journey began, but its time to put them in writing so that we can be held to them:</div><div style="color: #cccccc;">Nightmare will be a transparent company (no secrets, no lies, our products and process speak for themselves)</div><div style="color: #cccccc;">Nightmare will always be owned and run by snowboarders (yes, dirty, mostly broke snowboarders)</div><div style="color: #cccccc;">Nightmare will always preserve American Labor and Economy</div><div style="color: #cccccc;">Nightmare products will always be manufactured in the USA, with as many American made materials as we can source</div><div style="color: #cccccc;">Nightmare will always have presence in Colorado (there is a reason we started here and it is not related to costs)</div><div style="color: #cccccc;">Nightmare will do everything 100% no surrender/no apologies. </div><div style="color: #cccccc;"><br />

We’re literally obsessed with making our products better. It started when Jake Burton hand-built over 100 different snowboard prototypes in his Vermont barn back in 1977. At that time he was making snowboards using the construction techniques of skateboards, surfboards, boats, water skis, and even solid wood furniture. He tells a great story about how, since there were no snowboard manufacturing machines, he had do it all by hand, and almost killed himself twice when wooden blanks shot off his hand router and went through a wall." -Greg Dacyshyn, burton chief creative officer</span>
<br />
<br /><span style="color: rgb(51, 255, 255);">so this puts nightmare right around 1978, finally we are past the wood core dangers and have moved on to bigger problems. the crew is safe and sound for the moment, all of our walls survived the attacks.
<br />do you think his first hundred looked as good as ours do?

<br /><span style="color: rgb(51, 255, 51);">as the nights get longer and colder up here in summit snow is the only thing on everyones mind. now is the time to prepare for our upcoming season. obviously that means building tons of radical snowboards, getting the tuneshop stocked up, fixing all three broken snowmobile trailers, scrounging up money for season passes, signing leases and talking to summit county snowboard shops. </span>
<br /><span style="color: rgb(51, 255, 51);">but it also meas its time to start experimenting with film techniques, trying to get "the shot" in the backcountry without having to rent a helicopter. </span>
<br /><span style="color: rgb(51, 255, 51);">so our first step was to build a 6foot gopro camera jib without spending a dollar. this is the result, nothing fancy but it works and it was totally free. now we need a 10-15foot version that will attach to a snowmobile somehow.........</span>
<br /><span style="color: rgb(51, 255, 51);">show up on tues night for some skate action and help us test out the new jib and shred the box and the mini.</span>

We're hit with another graphic to make the general public scratch their heads wondering with question "is that snowboard graphic allowed to happen?" and "how do you expect snowboard shops to carry that shiiiiiiit?". There is nothing more fullfilling than telling our friends and supporters that with nightmare we will do <u><strong>anything</strong></u> we decide. However, the only thing that beats that is pushing that idea even further, maybe bumming some people out, maybe getting some people stoked, and in the end building something of our own that has limitless boundaries... it kind of feels like freedom, so I guess that makes us real live patriots.

So for now see things through the high eye and wander amongst evil kittens being attacked by dogs of lightning while our cosmos are filled with the fury of bears battling sharks and wolves struggling against the king octopus.

<div style="color: yellow;">in other news, the site (strangesnowboarding.com) is temporarily down for maintenance while we get ready for next season. if you are wondering what we are up to, stop by the factory and skate for a bit, keep checking the blog or facebook. </div><br />
the crew that remains in summit gets to shred tomorrow, in the middle of summer, on a 40in base at arapahoe basin. come join us for the last day of one of the best seasons ever. thanks for the snow ullr!Future Primitivehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07066759958490866777noreply@blogger.com1
