This video is a great example of a perfect pairing of music and imagery.  Pro snowboarder William Hughes is here being filmed by artist Jacob Sutton while wearing a L.E.D. covered suit made by some electronics whiz named John Spatcher and it is all set against the backdrop of a somber piano backdrop that sounds like some Sigur Rós…but i have no idea who it is. Its pretty neat watching Hughes carve up the Alps in slow motion and black & white, in the dark of night, with the only light provided by the suit he is wearing. A beautiful video that I found once i clicked on it, i didn’t close the tab until it was over…a rarity these days. With the exception of those Ellen clips lately, SHE HAS BEEN ON POINT LATELY!

Watch and enjoy, its been a good return to action week at the Deuce, glad to be back with you all. Thanks for your readership and happy Friday.

Snowboarder Buried

The snowboarder in the below video is one lucky guy.  He decided to put a helmet cam on before his big run on Slovakia’s High Tatra mountains and good thing he did because he captured himself getting swallowed up and dragged along by an avalanche.  Its awesome to watch and its made even better because the dude actually is quite fine after it all.  No random horrific violence at all, how about that?  Not that he doesn’t come close to having this classified as a horrific violence video, check out how close he comes to biting it big time when he almost gets smashed up against a bunch of jagged rocks.  Insane footage.

Note…that is just a picture of a guy with snow on him, not actually the guy in the video.
