In Australia and hungry for some big-mountain lines, Milligram rider Antony von Chrismar took a weekend hike into New South Wales' Kosciuszko National Park in search of freeride terrain which would rival that of the Alps. A stone's throw from Perisher Mountain Resort, the area, which has many peaks above 2000m altitude, looks like it has plenty to offer!
If Revelstoke wasn't on your skiing bucket list already it will be in five minutes time! Last winter, Cartel skier Jonnie Merrill upped-sticks from home in Salt Lake City to spend the cold months in Revelstoke, a mecca for any powder addicted skier or snowboarder. The footage he's pulled together proves that Jonnie is one to watch!
Amplid's Peter Bauer chats with Blister Review's Jonathan Ellsworth to talk about snowboarding, how he discovered the sport, its culture and what contributed to the sport's meteoric boom in late 80ies and 90ies. A real insight into the history of the sport and why being "anti" skiing was essential to its growth.
Amplid team rider Julien Lange just released the trailer for his up-coming movie "C'est Dans La Tête". Jam packed with Julien's usual intoxicating mix of big-mountain skiing and silky smooth freestyle trickery, C'est Dans La Tête looks like a movie that you don't want to sleep on.
It's mid-august, the hottest time of the year, and Finnish shred talent Christian Stromberg just dropped such a sizzling edit, that it might just pull Europe into another heatwave. From creative urban lines to balmy rail tricks and experimental cork spins, Christian leaves the heat!
Last month, Amplid homies Buell Steelman and Matt Strouder took advantage of the remaining snowpack on Mt Jefferson, Oregon's second highest peak, surfing perfect early summer corn on their Milligram splitboards. From the pictures, we reckon this mission was well worth the early start!

Blue skies and fresh powder greeted the 250 competitors hoping to nail a fast time at the 4th edition of the Volcom Banked Slalom at Kitzsteinhorn glacier resort.

Spring brings warm weather, longer days and most importantly, the annual SLVSH Cup at the Sunset Park in Peretol, Andorra!

Late spring is the perfect time to explore the incredible mountains of the Lyngen Alps. Towering above the Fjords which separate them, these Norwegian gems hold great snow until early summer, and the long days of the Arctic Circle’s summer make them the perfect place to splitboard. Amplid friend Juergen Haider is leading an expedition to the Lyngen in late April and there are still a handful of spots available.
Snow conditions in California this winter have been incredible. Ambassador Buell Steelman and his touring buddies have been making the most of the great snow, scoping and bagging incredible lines all the way along the Eastern Sierras, from Bridgeport to Lone Pine.

Le Trip - Luca Wasser

Swiss shredder Luca Wasser went on a road trip east this winter taking-in a handful of Austria's best parks. Watch as Luca flows like water (see what I did there) through the features of Kaltenbach's, Planai's and Flachauwinkl's next level terrain parks.

This winter, Milligram mega-fan Andreas Baumann and his girlfriend traveled east to Japan for the splitboard trip of a lifetime.

After a month of cabin fever inducing weather in Alaska, Ambush rider Ben Reynolds was finally able to access some of his favourite zones in the the Chugach range, close to his home.
