    Nice work TGR - some good showings in there!!



    POWDER MAGAZINE ANNOUNCES NOMINEES FOR 2005 POWDER VIDEO AND READER POLL AWARDS PRESENTED BY JABRA
    ***Aspen Hosts Annual Award Show***

    (Dana Point, CA – January 10, 2005) – POWDER Magazine, part of PRIMEDIA’S Action Sports Group (ASG), today announced the nominees for the 2005 POWDER Video and Reader Poll Awards. Now in its fifth year, the awards show will take place January 29, 2005, at The Hotel Jerome in Aspen, CO, coinciding with the 2005 Winter X Games.

    “POWDER Magazine takes great pride in honoring the world’s most talented athletes and the industry’s finest filmmakers at this year’s Reader Poll and Video Awards show,” said Derek Taylor, Senior Editor. “POWDER is excited to host the awards in Aspen, one of North America’s finest ski towns, and this year’s show, coinciding with the X Games, is guaranteed to attract the biggest names in skiing.”

    High-profile athletes such as Shane McConkey, Sage Cattabriga-Alosa, and Sarah Burke are just a few of the notables scheduled to descend on the awards show. Each year the show builds on its reputation as the premier event recognizing not only the who’s who in skiing, but, with awards like Breakthrough Performance in ski cinema, also establishing what will be the sport’s next big thing. And with this being Aspen, you never know which celebrity you’ll bump into.

    The POWDER Magazine Video Awards honor the ski world’s best filmmakers and top athletes in categories such as Best Line, Best Male Performance, Movie of the Year, Photo of the Year, and the Full Throttle Award, recognizing the skier who pushes what’s possible on skis to the very limit. Additionally, the show will feature the Reader Poll Awards, which name skiing’s top 10 male and top five female skiers of the year as determined by votes from the readers of POWDER Magazine.

    2005 POWDER Video and Reader Poll Awards is presented by Jabra, with additional support provided by Amstel Light, Aspen/Snowmass, The North Face, and Red Bull.

    Doors will open at 8:00 p.m. and the awards show begins promptly at 8:30 p.m. See you there!

    Still haven't seen Yearbook, but from what I hear, this is soooo true. Guess he's breakthrough award winner at least.

    huh, seems weird not to see Seth in there. Sure he'll be back for next year though!

    Ya from what i hear Amba did kill it!!! I hope that he wins. I do think that it was a little odd that Stimulus did not get into the best movie of the year award nominees. I swear i come home from school and just watch it maybe 2 times a day, its that good.
    Even though i haven't seen it i did also hear that free radicals was pretty good. I should probably look into buying that.
    Warning Powder may be deeper than it appears.

    You don't know who Kush is?!?! How is that even possible?

    For one thing he is hardrider's little brother and hardrider is a kirkwood, "Local Hero".

    Kush's crash is in the crash segment from the kirkwood comp last year. One of the competitors rolling over volcanic rocks during the worst condtitions of the year. He hits a rock and explodes then proceeds to roll over 2 more ugly looking rocks.

    Do you realize that you've just posted an admission of ignorance so breathtaking that it disqualifies you from commenting on any political or economic threads from here on out?

    I'm fairly sure that during the athlete tram party during last years Bird comp that a certain backstrom's bare backside was pressed against the glass from the opposing tram.
