Mammoth is open—shred season is on and the contest circuit is sill a month away (starting with the 70,000 person crowd at the Tokyo Dome), but right now it’s all about shredding with your Frends … and celebrating 21st birthdays—happy birthday Kevin and Scotty—go wild!
This column is your direct line to Danny Davis, Kevin Pearce, Mason Aguirre. Scotty Lago, Luke Mitrani, Jack Mitrani, and Keir Dillon.You can ask them anything—how to deal with pre-contest jitters, how to tune your equipment for specific obstacles, where to go in Japan/Europe/New Zealand (anywhere), where’s the best place to watch the action at the U.S. Open … or any other contest for that matter—they’ve been there and done that.
Hit us in the comment section below with your questions for the Frends (or e-mail us at snowmail@transworld.net). Do it now, and see your question answered in the next issue.

Broski’s,

Hey Frends! What do you think of the infamous Pete Wast?

I was wondering what the deal is with Keir Dillon being part of the Frends crew? Isn’t he a bit old? Is he only on part of it cause he rides for Burton same as all other members except Lago? If so thats pretty lame

Hey party people,
Why the hell can’t i figure out how to devote my entire life to snow slashing? My gnar skills will probably never land me a gig, so what will?!

Hey FRENDS!
I’ve got 2 questions:
1. How did you come up with the idea of FRENDS, and what is it that makes you FRENDS? I mean was it friendship first- project later or vice versa?
2. What’s the point of FRENDS? Just making videos? Or what? What are you planning for this season?
Thanks! And hope you all have a good season!

Hey Luke and Mason,
You may know how much I’m in love with overalls/bibs, which I wear all the time. How often do you wear your snow bibs? Does Shaun White ever wear them? What other pros are known to wear them, and how often? Seeing Bryan Iguchi shred in overalls in FLF Project 6 (1993) was such a thrill!

whats up frends,
I’m a grade twelve student from Alberta Canada and it’s kinda f*ed here. All the major jocks in my high school wear skate and snow brands, like they probably own more than any of the skaters or shredders here. On top of that these are the kids who make fun of us and try to start fights. I was just wondering if this is a common thing or I just happen to live in a living breathing oxymoron.
Thanks,
That guy

Yo Scotty-
I know you’re a religious man and I was just wondering how you stay real with God with all the temptations in the snowboard world - the drinking, the girls and numerous other sins. I’m having a lot of trouble staying true to my faith and not giving in to my desires if you catch my drift…
I’ve got mad respect for the Frends. Keep on shreddin
Peace and Love in His graceful keeping.

Hey Frends,
If y’all had to appoint a leader to the Frends crew, which one of the Frends would it be?

Scotty Lago,
Will you marry me?
Love, Justine

Hey KP, How does it feel to get your medal taken away by a no talent ass clown like shaun white when the whole snowboard community knows your run sealed the deal for GOLD?
