MGT Snowboard Camp for Girls

Heyo!
Just a lil’ update from Mt. Hood! Last week was my signature session at High Cascade, as well as the women’s k2 alliance product testing week. It was awesome to check out the new line for 2011. There’s definitely some sick product that I can’t wait to get on! We’ll be shooting the catalog with the K2 team in Chile coming up in August…so not too many sleeps to go and we’ll be shredding some deep pow and getting some soul turns in. Yes!

So back to HCSC…one of my favorite features at high cascade was the airbag. I was pretty skeptical of the whole idea when it came out because I’d heard of so many people getting hurt. I passed by a bunch of campers so unbelievably stoked that they’d gotten all these tricks they’d been working on, so I figured I might as well give it a go. It didn’t seem like many people were getting hurt, and I saw some carnage go down! One of my first tries I rotated a backflip so slowly that I had time to visualize everything possible that was going to go wrong before my face hit the bag. And all I got was a bruised ego. So…from there, I decided that this was a good thing for my snowboarding. I’m getting to work on some tricks that I haven’t had the chance to try in awhile.

Snowboarding and surfing go hand n' hand. Like a hair extension and Brittany Spears. Or like a cookie and my mouth. So it makes us at MGT very excited to see 22 year-old Stephanie Gilmore land the first female cover of Transworld Surf. But why do they have to mention the 'sexy' bit? Read more.

Looks like you might be seeing snowboard slopestyle in the 2014 Olympic Winter Games in Sochi! Read more. Speaking of FIS.....a new rule states PGS racers can no longer wear 1 piece speed suits. Only 2 piece suits are permitted. You can all rest easy now.

Starting to crave loooong long days filled with ice cream, slush jumps, slush burn, tank tops, and multi sport sessions? We have what you need! Just take 1 dose of a summer snowboard camp and you'll be healed! Our good friends at High Cascade Snowboard Camp (HCSC) put together the most satisfying and soothing snow meds. Need some girl hang time? How about with MGT's Leanne Pelosi and Spencer O'Brien along with Ellery Hollingsworth and Elena Hight? Then save the date: June 26 - July 3 (Session 2).

Grenade Games returned to Whistler for a second installment of rewiring the hardware in your brain and what you come to expect from a snowboard contest. Soak up the photo gallery on the Monster Energy Canada site.

Thanks to everyone who came to the MGT camp at Lake Louise! We had a wonderful time, didn't we? Take a look at the photos on our Facebook Fan Page.

Honestly one of the most fun MGT weekends of all time. Thank you Lake Louise campers! View the Photo Album on the MGT Facebook Fan Page >>

MGT is coming back to Lake Louise! The last 6 camps here have been a happy riding, happy hamburger eating, happy-scared-gonna-land-this-trick extravaganza. Limited spots remain. Register online to lock-down a spot for this April 10-11 camp!
