some bluebird days for the BOOST crew !





Starting off the sledding season with a mixed batch of weather and snowfall, we have seen the stability of the snowpack get better over time. Right now we have a few weak layers but have since bonded well with a series of weather patterns that have migrated through. We were blessed with a high pressure zone and to top it off a temperature inversion that made the valley bottoms look and feel gloomy, but the mountain tops were pure blue skies and warmer temps than that of the valley floor. First we hit old faithful.... Boulder mountain, where the boys scoped out the monster bowl and made some spectacular climbs out of the main monster chute.

The rest of the day was spent playing in the trees and boondocking fun on turbo sleds. There isnt much terrain that cant be covered on a sled that pumps 250-300 hp.

We were having such a good time that nightfall hit us fast and we all travelled back to the trucks on fumes.

Far West Films announces BOOST 4 : the Beauty and the BEAST !


After a long, hot summer of editing all the footage from the 2008/2009 sledding season, the producer from Far West Films in Revelstoke, BC, announces this season's film : BOOST 4 : The beauty and the BEAST.
Although the winter season brought us mixed forcasts of unstable snow packs, the Boost brothers played it safe by enjoying the deep snow in treed areas and low risk hill climbs. Once the Avalanche forcasts looked better, and our own tests determined it safe, it was time to hit the big chutes !
Bringing on their signature status of " king of chutes " team NM and brothers of BOOST slayed the mountain ranges surrounding Revelstoke, BC.
This action-packed edition of the BOOST series also includes extra footage of the beauty in the mountains around Revelstoke, extra footage of the brothers at their finest, Jeff Parker in his jet boat, and some scenes around the city of Revelstoke in the winter.
