THE LIFTY COLLECTION
If you ski or snowboard you know how many times a lifty has saved your ass whether it’s from freezing to a small sheet of ice or falling off a rickety chair lift. These unsung heroes are responsible for getting you and your planks to the top of hill so you can safely enjoy sliding your day away.

FLOW STATE
Fall has officially snapped and we’ve got snow on the brain! No, not in the form of a bad ice cream headache but overwhelming excitement for Teva’s foray into snow sports. Recently, we launched the Lifty Collection inspired by those anonymous men and women who dust off the lift before you plop down to enjoy the scenery and subsequent slopes. Also, we’ve added Lel Tone to the Teva team, our first winter sports athlete who will be appearing in Warren Miller’s latest snow sports film, Flow State.

TREEPEES
Look! Up in the sky! It’s a bird? It’s a plane? It’s a … a campsite?
As one adventure-type-y person said to another adventure-type-y person, when it comes finding your camping chi, it all comes down to finding the perfect campsite, my friend.
And with fall just around the corner (or, after Indian summer for us, Southern Californians), a slew of eager folks will be scoping out their ideal camping retreats from Yosemite to Big Sur. But what if there was a way to beat the crowds, avoid those reservation prices and maybe not have to bother with clearing foliage/rocks for a site? Well, camper friends, we wanna share how you can take your camping to a whole other level—literally. In fact, finding your camping chi could be as close as the nearest tree branch.

COW-A-DUNGA!
What do Vermont ski resort owners, local farmers and about 10,000 dairy cows have in common? At Killington Ski Resort in Vermont, the trio is proving how cow poo is helping make greener strides and taking everyone to greater heights—a 4,241-foot mountain peak to be exact.
At first glance, our little black-and-white speckled, pasture-grazing friends have nothing to do with snow-covered peaks, half pipes, lodges or fresh powder but, as we’ve recently discovered, cows have everything to do with giving us a lift to those things.
Such as? How about the highest chairlift in Vermont.

Off to Antarctica
There are lots of things that get me excited about my job, and receiving video messages from SOLE-sponsored athletes is one of them! Less than 18 hours before Team Jordan is to fly from Southern Chile to Antarctica, I received the video below in my email inbox:
Doing Good While Doing What You Love
At SOLE, we have the opportunity to work with some pretty great people. Some of them run 350 miles straight (Dean Karnazes, runner), some of them overcome incredible obstacles (Trevor Thomas, blind mountaineer), and some of them take something that they love and do good with it. Enter Mark Vaughn. Mark is one of SOLE's Sales Representatives based in Colorado. On October 9th, Mark ran the Denver Rock'n'Roll 1/2 Marathon with a group of people trying to make a difference. In a donation request letter sent to friends, Mark wrote: I am dedicating my race to helping provide clean water to communities in Africa. I'm kind of nervous about the miles, but I know that training with this purpose in mind will keep me going.

Artist Collection
One of the many great things about designing with stainless steel is that it creates a perfect medium for all kinds of art. This is why we have chosen to showcase our artists' work primarily on the round stainless steel bottles, available in seven categories.
Our Bottles
Whether you like to see your beverage or sport the latest artwork, Waterbox has a solution for you. Our products are made of food-grade materials that are durable and safe for every member of your family. No hidden liners to worry about. No "weird" aftertaste. And an easy to open cap that we will replace for free if you lose yours - a virtual guarantee that your Waterbox bottle will be in your life as long as you want it to be.
Who We Are
Waterbox grew out of the idea that a bottle should not be limited to its functional use, but should look and feel good as well. Over 32 million single use plastic bottles are thrown away every day in the United States alone and this doesn't have to happen. One of the things we recognize is that if your bottle looks great and functions well, you'll use it every day.

The Breck stop of Winter Dew Tour 2011 is in the books and Skullcandy hero Tom Wallisch has taken the win.

ESPN has singled out Bobby Brown to highlight in a video piece called The Road to X.
TANNER RAINVILLE IN LEVEL 1’S EXTRA DARK #8
T Rains and some other powderhuffers drop pillow lines in BC, while you wait for a little bit of snow to cover the ice luge that is your local resort. Life is unfair.
Nitro Circus 3D Trailer
The Nitro Circus Crew is back with the latest teaser for their upcoming full-length film, Nitro Circus 3D: The Movie.
Bamboo Water Bottle
The most strikingly beautiful new water bottle also gives you the purest drinking experience. Inside the bamboo shell is a 17-ounce glass bottle, which doesn’t contain BPA, doesn’t need a liner, and doesn’t retain the taste of liquids. The whole thing disassembles to throw in the dishwasher. While it’s a little heavy, it’s the best combination of good looks and safe drinking we’ve seen.
Bamboo Bottle Company Makes Stylish, Insulated, Glass Bottles
Given a choice, I prefer to drink water out of a glass container. Glass doesn't leach harmful chemicals like plastic, it adds no flavor to the water like metal sometimes does and I just like the way it feels.
Bamboo Water Bottle Offers Worry-Free Hydration
Remember when Nalgene water bottles were all the rage? Then we learned about BPA and all the nasty stuff that plastic was leaking into our water.
