Single-Trick Edit Battle: Adam Delorme vs. Grigory Fuzeev

By Dunfee3 Comments

Screen shot 2013-05-14 at 11.56.31 AM

Sorry we couldn’t embed this, WordPress ain’t down with the javascript. You’ll have to suffer through a Disney commercial first…

Boom! It’s a big week for the BroBomb Edit Battle section. First we had McNutt going head to head with Shay Lee, with fewer people opting for the handjob option than expected. Only 24 hours later we’re dropping two of the hottest tricks of May 2013 – Adam Delorme’s cork 5 to tailslide (?) vs. Grigory Fuzeev’s hand-drag dub flat 7. And hey, Nick Goepper did a triple! Must’ve been all those secret moon water injections aboard the Red Bull helicarrier, which is currently sending mind control rays from its secret base in the South China Sea. At any rate, it’s time to go head to head for the best single trick of the week. Is it Delorme’s 2018-level tail butter (future butter?)…

Armed Pro-Am Edit Battle: Nick McNutt vs. Shay lee

By Dunfee18 Comments

By now you’ve likely seen the unreal POV edit Whistler guy Nick McNutt put out late last week. Nick’s the first guy since Andrew Whiteford to make a name for himself purely off his POV edits, partly because he skis like a maniac and partly because he chooses music that could really offend very few people, unlike the majority of edits I click play for and then delete the page because I can’t stand the goddamned awful hip hop or reggae being thrown over what may be worthwhile skiing. At any rate, I was all excited to give myself credit for scouting Nick as one of the most promising up and comers to roll out of last season in our “10 Best Skiers of 2012″ post, but alas, I never actually wrote that piece. Damn schizophrenia!

1st Inter-Sibling Armed Am Edit Battle: The Brothers Swing

By Dunfee9 Comments

Oh boy, we’re definitely going to get some hate mail from kids and/or parents for this one. Courtesy of filmer Patrick Meynard, we have our first INTER-SIBLING ARMED AM EDIT BATTLE. Both the Swing brothers hail from Sugarbush (which I will probably just start referring to as “Boreal East”), both have the same filmer, both ski for Fischer (?) or at least support it, and both are likely MAD CHYLL. But who does Mom love more (/is a better skier)? Alva…

April 17 Armed Am Edit Battle: Shane Healy v. Charlie Dayton

By Dunfee12 Comments

Oh, baby! We actually have some talent on this week’s Armed Am Edit Battle, with this week’s internet sensation – Shane Healy – going up against up-and-coming East Coast hesher, Charlie Dayton. This will be a real test of how much BroBomb’s readership does or does not despise the spin-to-win rail game.

So what will it be: Shane Healy’s unstoppable Wallisch-level supertech game…

…or an East Coaster (his name is Charlie) who wears tight pants and does some cool quarterpipey shit on the side of jumps at Sugarbush? (To our credit, Charlie DOES use poles, for those who are accusing us of a no-poles obsession)

Big Boulder Armed Am Edit Battle!

By DunfeeNo Comments

Oh baby! It’s an all-hometown Armed Am Edit Battle this week, with two ams getting harassed for their edit choices that they filmed at BroBomb’s home mountain of Big Boulder, Pennsylvania.

Joe Shapley

Life in slow motion + scrubbed rail randings + WOW! was that a front 2 OUT?!? + lawndart + dubstep + ugly backflip + ugly rodeo + since when was it less intimidating to learn a flip than learn a 360 with a decent grab?

CMH With Dylan Siggers

By DunfeeNo Comments

A few fun facts about this edit:

-A Bell 204 “Huey” helicopter, like the ones CMH use, burns around 120 gallons of fuel an hour on average. That’s roughly a metric ton of CO2 emissions per hour.

-Helicopters are more efficient when cruising but much less so during slow flight, hovering, or take-off, i.e. heli skiing. So the previous number should probably be bumped up a bit for our purposes.

-An average helicopter carrying four to six people will burn somewhere on the order of 15 gallons of fuel just to start up.

-Due to our enjoyment of skiing, understanding of the threats of climate change to said enjoyed skiing, and impact of helicopters on climate change, BroBomb’s official stance is anti-helicopter.*

-Dylan Siggers is the luckiest teenager in Canada, though his grandkids might not feel that way when/if there’s 1/2-1/3 as many powder-stuffed pillows in 2070.

*”BroBomb’s official stance” in this case = Dunfee’s personal stance

Armed Am Edit Battle: Crapules vs. Loon Lake

By Dunfee1 Comment

 Talk about inclusive – this Frenchie crew called “Crapules” even lets a tele skier shred with them! You got to admit, landing a rail slide in a drop-knee turn is pretty bitchin’. Insert Phish joke here.

Holy shit – skiers at Loon! Why, it’s the Loon Lake crew.
