Scott Hoffman in Mammoth's Unbound Magazine

Mammoth mountain released their first issue of a magazine last month.  The name of the magazine is called "Unbound". The Magazine focuses on the Mammoth mountain and around the area.  I got a photo  jumping over a fence that Terren Gomez photographed.  Gomez has published many photos in Transworld and Snowboarder magazine as well.  Check out the intense story behind this photo by clicking on this link.

Banged in Transworld

Well in the life of Bang, today I would like to discuss my first Transworld Snowboarding Magazine photograph. I got home and checked my facebook to come to see a photo I recieved in Transworlds Photo issue.  The photo was taken this summer by my friend/Windells Photographer Darcy Bacha.  Darcy received a "check out" in this issue and I was fortunate enough for them to use a photo taken of me. I saw this old snow cat just sitting on the snow one day and had the idea of tapping or jumping over the snowcat.  I got shut down by the mountain manager one day while I was shoveling the take-off over the cat. The jump was nearly finished and that night another snowcat took down the jump.  Darcy and I knew it would be a unique shot so we built it up again a couple days later with the help of Justin Norman and Matt Gonzales.  Each one of us got a few tricks and then ski patrol came by and told us we were cut off.  Thanks Darcy and everyone else who made this possible.

Work Day

Today I worked at Shoreline of Tahoe.  I am an employee as well as a team rider for the shop.  I worked 12 hours while it was a blue bird day after our huge storm.  I got myself an Airblaster ninja suit for the season and got a pair of Union Bindings.  Thanks Union! Tomorrows Thanksgiving and have the day off.  I think I'm going to jib a turkey. Happy Thanksgiving.

Sierra opening day!

Today I went to Sierra at Tahoe with some friends.  There is a ton of snow for it being only November 23rd.  The snow is super light, not wet.   It was snowing and I had plenty of time to hang out in the white room.  We filmed some slashes on a Hero cam so stay tuned to watch the opening day video. Its time to go shovel more snow.
