Something has to get cut, so here’s what didn’t make the movie. Still better than my best day. . .

GROWup Productions early season from greg saunders on Vimeo.

 
This is Luis from Tall Treez Productions, they create videos here in the Tahoe Area. All over the mountains you can see their Tall Treez hoodies. They look like a gang…and they are a gang, sort of…but really they’re just friendly skiers and snowboarders out having a good time filming each other. This is part of their story, check out more of their vids, and hoodies online at Talltreez.com

“Karl’s Big Break” by Team Heist from Z Systems on Vimeo.

Hey Troops, this is Bob Daly the blogger, Flimer, editor, for Shoreline of Tahoe, and just to prove that I’m not the only crazy person in my Family, watch this clip. This is a video that my older brother Jack wrote, filmed, and played the cameraman in. This short film won first place in the “Z Systems Second Annual Film Festival” in Mpls. Minnesota. Yes he has hair too….

Flex is something we know. Over 20 years of building the worlds best snowboards has given Never Summer an unfair advantage when it comes to creating flex decks.

This is Mike Chantry about 1988 wearing a Shoreline of Tahoe…Back then known as Shoreline Ski & Snowboards team rider jacket and pants.  If we could read the embroidery on his left pocket, we would be able to read “Shoreline Ski & Snowboards  Pro Snowboard Shop” that suit was sick, made by a Company called “Hot Dogger” that Very quickly came and went. Yea those were pink Palm trees on his pants….Way Cool for 88…
Mike Chantry is one of those people that have a way shaping a movement without getting too entangled. To do this you must love your passion in a way that never ruins it for you. In other words not depend on it for you sole source of income. He some how became a great supporter of both Sessions Snowboard Shop and Shoreline Of Tahoe in the early years. I think Joel Gomez started Sessions in 83 followed by Shoreline in 85. In the early years you knew everyone, if you saw someone with a board, you most likely knew them or knew someone they knew. It was kind of a relapsed hippy phase where if you saw someone hitching with a snowboard you would go out of your way to give them a ride just to talk about snowboarding. Mike has always been old to me, I meet him when I was 23 when he hosted “Terror in Tahoe” the now legendary Skate contest. Like I said Mike greatly influenced the skate an snowboard scene for decades, so I was happy to see this old shot of Mike,  it brought back many fond memories of a time long gone, but not forgotten.
