Some fresh meat hit the shop today including the destroyer Sammy Baca "creature rip."

"THE PARTY"

Ryan Martin aka "Party Marty" sent us this clip for your viewing pleasure.

FIX IT HERE

Rails and boxes will eventually destroy your board. It's NOT a warranty issue but we might be able to save it for a good street board again. Here's a perfect example of a brand new deck with the entire side wall caved in from one over charged tree rewind. Expect damage eventually if you do the tricks wrong, but we are a shop that will take on the work to keep you riding. It's not always going to work but our kill rate is really good when it comes to repairs.

THULE

Make getting to the mountains easier this winter with a Thule system. Pack more people in the car, split the gas, and stick the boards on the roof. The six pair ski carrier also fits four boards and clamps right onto just about any make of car with a factory roof rack already on it. It comes stock with locks already for $149.99.

ELECTRIC IS BACK!

We finally got ELECTRIC back in just in time for the big freeze and lots of snowmaking weather. Great frames, colors, prints, sizes, bonus lenses, bandanas ....all good. These frames and more just came off the truck today.

LOCALS..WAX UP AND GET READY!

HERE'S THE LATEST ON WAWA FROM THEIR SITE.....OPENING UPDATE

We're getting closer.... with Saturday's 4 inches of natural snow and the colder overnight temperatures this weekend, the snow guns are finally in full force. The weather forecast is calling for overnight temperatures to continue in the 20's through most of this week allowing for snowmaking operations to continnue almost every night this week.

When temperatures dip into the 20’s, we can progress very quickly and our snowmaking crew will be working around the clock as weather permits building base depths and extending coverage. We are planning to be open for skiing and riding by Thursday, December 10th or sooner as weather permits. Snowmaking operations have started on Conifer Connection trail from the summit for intermediate and advanced level skiers and riders, Indian Summer for beginners and Ollie's Teaching Area for first-time skiers and riders..

The long range forecast is for consistent winter-like temperatures to continue through the rest of this month. Our state-of-the-art system and extensive water supply will allow us to maximize snowmaking efforts to open additional terrain quickly as we head towards the holidays. Snowmaking depends on cold temperatures and low humidity – just like Mother Nature we can make snow when temperatures dip below 32 degrees -- the colder it gets, the more snow we can make. To be most efficient during the early season, we strive to get temperatures at least into the 20’s so we can maximize our efforts.

We have the best snowmaking crew in the business and they are psyched to be working hard to get you on the slopes! We will update the snow conditions on the website and snow phone with our snowmaking progress and opening date progress.

LET US FIX IT...

...if you need a good backyard rail board, or it's just not the year to buy a new snowboard. Every EB is a full service repair shop and these clamps have repaired and salvaged many a beaten board. We also still have a few boards left over from last season at 40% off and jackets and snow pants for 50% off.

J HARDY AND JAY L

Connecticut session...same spot Jay almost took himself out on the lower ledge.

THANKS SEPPI!

EB's man over seas Seppi Scholler just sent us a copy of the new LOVE video "Loveolution" and we were stoked. Great snowboarding and a lot of really good skating and skate spots too. ( See you when you come back to the states...thanks again Seppi! )

IT'S DUMPING!!!!!!!

Wheeeew the morning commute was brutal today. Maybe it's just my town but just look at this photo from my road!

OK well at least the nights coming up are looking good for snowmaking. Fear not, winter is on the way.

GRIP IT AND RIP IT

Burned out drills, old files, awls, and thousands of razor blades have gripped endless skateboards here over the years. Every deck thats gone out of here has most likely got some sort of story behind it too after you took it to the streets. There are always a few boards that you'll wish you had saved too, just to look at it and know what trick you did on one random day at some obscure spot. They don't call them glory days for no reason.

RAILS TO RICHES

This could be a nice way to snag some extra spending money this Christmas. Rail jocks unite!

Mondays...

...can feel like this sometimes.

BLACK FRIDAY

HAPPY THANKSGIVING

Everyone at EB would like to wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving aka "Turkey Day". Here we have the flag of Turkey, A coloring page , a vintage hot farmer chick and her unlucky friend, and a little turkey humor. We'll be closed for Thanksgiving but back and ready to go for Black Friday 10am - 9pm.

NICK JULIUS

Julio First Week Snowboarding from Nick Julius on Vimeo.

EB Leominster team shred Nick Julius already has some early season lines from Breck here. Looks like things are starting to happen out West. Soon enough we'll have our own snow with any luck. Keep an eye open for Nick up at Waterville Valley again this winter while he gets picked on, and groomed for tricks by non other than the infamous snow bro Coach, Bill Enos. Another EB head (..and not quite washed up yet) Luke Mathison is still in charge of the Waterville park this winter too, so you know it'll be good. Get there..the Waterville Valley staff is on point as usual.

Bikes
