Kelly and Daley Slater

Kelly Slater has a twin brother? We know there are some popular twins in surfing. Most notably the Patridge girls, but this powerhouse duo of Kelly and his brother Daley has been a secret keep for far too long.

SurferToday.com reports

"He (Kelly) never talks about it, because I asked him not to. I really like to have my private life here in Moledo", told Daley to SurferToday.com.

We asked him who the best surfer is. The free spirited twin brother responded immediately. "I surf much better, no doubts". Daley Slater still has many hobbies from times back in Cocoa Beach, when he still lived with Kelly and their parents.

Daley likes to paint and loves speed windsurfing, unlike his twin brother. "I really don't understand how Kelly might like golf. That's not a sport. That is a business meeting garden", jokes Daley.

Living in the North of Portugal, Daley watches his younger brother's victories in the online broadcasts because he gets nervous when he attends the surfing competitions in the middle of the beach.

"Very often people ask me why I am not surfing my heat. I have to tell them I am his twin brother and there's only room for one", says Daley.

Danny Kass, the Dingo, Louie Vito and a host the entire snowboarding Monster Arby come to Bear Mountain, California for the 7th Annual Grenade Games. Sunny Skies, lots of fun park features and plenty of libations set the stage for he most fun snowboarding contest of the year. This video is only Day 1, but provides a quality representation of the mayhem that is Grenade Games.

When you're buried alive - these guys are angels.There have been almost two dozen snowboarders who have died this season in avalanches, tree wells or other accidents, calling attention to the ever present danger inherent in the mountains. One that every skier or snowboarder or snowmobiler must be aware of before venturing off-piste or especially in the backcountry.

Given that, we decided to compile a quick list of the best avalanche survival vids we could find on the web. No doubt there are some missing but this should be a reasonably complete representative sample.

Remember people, don't ride alone and always wear your peeps!

The Man and the Mammoth

Episode 19 of the 4th season of Salomon Freeski TV takes a turn in the who knows where direction. But regardless, it is a rad stop-motion-claymation film by Public Ritual.

Stop motion creators really are an inspiring lot. Probably one our favorite examples was LINO, which chronicles a group of traveling surfers. It was all-time.

That said this Mammoth and the Man video is really quite amazing as well.

Bravo!

Fred Syversen just prior to hucking 107 meters into
oblivion.

This video is actually pretty old (circa 2008) but it's making another lap around the blogosphere this month for some reason, so I thought it was worth posting again. We all recall Jamie Pierre's world record cliff drop in the Tetons back in 2007. The infamous 75 meter leap of faith that looked like a suicide drop.

Despite the massive fall, Pierre's close encounter wasn't enough to dissuade Fred Syversen for making his own bid on history. Here he drops in on an unassuming line, but before reaching the bottom he inexplicably bangs a hard right while maching and plummets over 100 meters to an unknown fate.
