Starting 2013 bastard is proudly supporting the Bardonecchia snowpark, The JibBig Park. It’s a huge snowpark shaped by Doors and 3,5 km long, with hundreds of rails and jumps.

If you didn’t visit yet the Bardonecchia’s snowpark, you can come on Sunday february 17th for the Stairway Session. An old school contest with no money nor ranking, but a large prize in products (there will be even a JVC Addixion action camera for the best trick). We’ll be shredding for three hours on the biggest structure of the snowpark, a huge double box kinked stairset. If you stomp a good trick you’ll win a chip, who collects more chips wins the session.

The JibBig Park – Bardonecchia

If you like reggae music and snowboarding, the DanceHall Riders snowboard camp is perfect for you.

The most reggae italian snowboard event starts today on the Corno alle Scale Mountains. It’s ideal to spend some time snowboarding and dancing together with Don Rico and TerronFabio from Sud Sound System and the other guests of the DanceHall Riders 2013.

We’re really happy to support events of this kind, obviously. Good vibes for everyone!

Next week bastard will be at the ISPO tradeshow in Munich, 3-6 February 2013, Hall A1, Booth 229.

After 18 years on the market we are still looking for retailers/distributors that share with us our same passions and commitments!

Come to meet us and discover our new snowboard clothing line for winter 2013-14 designed by Lukas Goller, the totally handMade in Italy snowboards and the products developed in collaboration with ROUGH snowboards and Todd Bratrud.

P.S. The ISPO tradeshow is reserved for business professionals only (a.k.a. retailers, distributors, wholesalers, manufacturers, magazines, riders, designers…)

Your life is precious, smoke less, smoke better. Precious makes accessories for those wanting to smoke for pleasure and not as a vice.

Together with Precious designers we developed a small but complete collection of products dedicated to all smoke-lovers. Every details studied for a specific use: long and short papers pocket, tobacco  and lighter compartment, fire-proof coating. The entire bastard Precious collection is available online.

Unintentionally monopolizing this blog, Giorgio Zattoni just sent us the video below that has been shot during his first visit at the bastard bowl in Milan. Unapproachable.

Thanks to Thomas Pilani for the video and to Giorgio for the Frankie Hill deck he was riding that day.

The future for this 14yo my-tshirt-is-bigger-than-me kid was learning McTwist and being an electrician. Yes, he reached (and went over) his first hope as you will see at the exhibition for the XX anniversary of his skateboarding history.

However, we can say, that’s the same even for the second one: somehow he light it up!

Where? At Bonolabo, via Centofanti 79 – Ravenna – Italy [map link]

When? On 5-6-7  January 2013.
