The backcountry superstar and Snowboarder Magazine's two-time Rider of the Year, John Jackson, has recently switched from riding for Forum to Burton. Although the two companies are very similar in that they are essentially Burton, Jackson no longer rides with the same park shredders. He is now expanding his horizons in the backcountry where he ultimately dominates. When asked about his thoughts on the team switch, he believes that Burton will open many new windows of opportunity for him by doing exactly what he loves, “chasing snow and shredding”.

 Gretchen Bleiler and Louie Vito Pose Nude for ESPN Mag
(more vids like this)
ESPN- Gretchen Bleiler posed nude once again along with pro snowboarder Louie Vito. We've all seen the beautiful pro snowboarder Gretchen Bleiler pose nude in various magazines in the past, and now she has made it on the cover of ESPN's Body Issue magazine. Although she has posed nude for an ESPN cover in the past, this experience has been a very different one compared to her previous magazine shoots. In an interview with ESPN, Bleiler explains that she used to feel pressured to pose nude in the past and was portrayed in a way that she was not happy with.
However, this time was a very comfortable experience for her in that she feels like she is portraying exactly who she is: “badass and dangerous”. In her words, "I wanted to do the body issue because it's about power and strength.” Along with Bleiler, Olympic snowboarder Louie Vito also posed nude for the same issue of ESPN’s Body magazine which she was very happy about. That being said, she is very grateful to pose among some of the top athletes in the world in a setting that’s not about being “sexy” but how strong and powerful they are.
