DROPPIN' F BOMBS / NORTHSTAR AT TAHOE AND BRIGHTON

DROPPIN' F BOMBS - NORTHSTAR
A sizable midweek crew came together at Northstar-at-Tahoe for a detonating demonstration of explosive snowboarding, bomb sliding, gut bombing, and bomb dropping. Chris Bartkowski brought home a Forum Destroyer Snowboard for being the first to 50/50 540 off the missile. Cody Boan got some Forum boots for a nose-press f/s 360 off the firecracker stick, and Andrew Brewer received Forum bindings for his f/s Chuck Norris Chop b/s 450 revert off the upright F Bomb.

DROPPIN' F BOMBS - BRIGHTON
Meanwhile, over at Brighton, Utah over 100+ contestants signed-up to test their skills against the F Bombs. Ben Farrell was rewarded Forum bindings for his 50-50 to Bennihana off the missile jib. Alex Andrews will be stomping around in some Forum boots for his cab 450/450 out on the firecracker stick, and Christian Hobush will be jibbing in style on a brand new Forum Youngblood for his 360 nose bonk on the upright F Bomb. Mucho gut bombs were served, so one should shudder to think what the Brighton bathrooms looked like. But, the biggest explosions came after the contest when Brighton lit-up a fireworks show in celebration of all the bombs being dropped.

DROPPIN' F BOMBS SUMMIT AT SNOQUALMIE

The Northwest produced it’s (almost) patented moist and hazy weather for what proved to be an energetic stop of the Droppin' F Bombs event type thing at Summit at Snoqualmie. The custom course contained a bomb-drop drop-in, mogul minefield and three custom F Bomb jibs.



The unique set-up allowed for serious creativity, where hick-ups (from gut-bomb burritos), hang-ups and stylish bonks were all fair game. After a full days session in the course, a Forum board, boot and binding were rewarded to three worthy competitors.
