Netflix and Chill?... Try Netflix and Shred. When it comes to new slogans, we've all come across a friend or two awkwardly throwing out "netflix and chill." Where did this come from? It seems to have just popped out of nowhere almost overnight, and in a culture that is far too heavily saturated with sexual connotations, pressure, and innuendos, we'd like to just take a second and clear a few things up.

Surfing in Iceland: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JWeLfTHorUQ Surfers Hodei Collazo, Imanol Yeregi, and Natxo Gonzalez take journey to some of the coldest waters on earth. Starting with shots of the seemingly endless ice and snow, this video could be mistaken for a winter travelogue to Iceland at first glance. We see frigid waters and blue mountains, the northern lights and those that light up their surfboards, grassy green fields and an orange sun. With all of it's natural beauty, it's no wonder why surfers want to go to Iceland; however, it has only been made possible by the new technological advances in wetsuits. Chilly waters that prevent surfing

BSR With The Swedes I hope you're sitting down this morning, because this video will make you weak at the knees. Grab your cup of coffee, kick back and enjoy 4 minutes of pure bliss as Fredrik Blomqvist, Jeremia Hoppe, and Elevated Team Rider Christian Forssten drop bangers and locked in rail hits from their spring trip to BSR Cable Park in Texas.

Winches belong in cities: and so does snowboarder Dan Brisse adapts this symbol of man-made ingenuity to challenge the urban landscape in this new snowboarding video. Through the lens of the HERO3+® camera from http://GoPro.com, the video displays truly creative edits as it cuts back and forth, letting you first see from Dan’s viewpoint what it’s like to hurl down a run, and then cutting back to the more classic perspective of watching from a distance as the he conquers new obstacles.
