           Austin and Jordan’s cottonwood grease got me real jealous, so I decided to partake In my own water sport activities.  I am at Lake Chelan, 6 Hours north of Mt. Hood, which can become a wintery prison in the summer if you don’t go get some real summer time in.

 

Here are some pathetic attempts at Backflips on a wake board!

Well I gotta get back to enjoying my few days here lakeside, then its back to the melty glacier, yukyuk, I sometimes wish I was a pro surfer instead.

Field Productions new movie Eyes Wide Open is going to be an epic one if relates anything to this trailer they released. Field always does a great job of capturing the multiple angles of skiing from the park to the backcountry and everything in between. It is great to see the progression of film companies throughout the years, the shots are cleaner the moves are greasier and shit is just plan old crazy now. Can’t wait to see the full film Field!

I was having a chat with John Symms about the rarity of our last names, turns out that Durtschi is more common that Symms.  This pic shows that there are 344 people with my last name and I think symms has around 136 with his.  I think Its funny that 99.13% are white people, that means like 2 people with my last name are not white, but they are probably people that changed there name because its so cool. 

A small calculation, will prove that my name is 1 in a million, because .13 people per 100,000 in the U.S. have my last name, that means that 1 in a million do have my last name! Amazing, so your saying I have a chance?!

We now have Primary sticker packs available in the Saga online store! These over sized diecuts look clean/crisp on pretty much any flat surface and enhance the value of whatever they are placed on. Have a car? It could use a diecut. Have a bike? It could use a diecut. Have a desk? It could use a die cut. Have a laptop? It could use a diecut. Have a passed out friend? They could use a die cut! Helmet? diecut. Skateboard? diecut. You get the point. 

 

The pack includes:

- (3) 7″ x 7″ Angus Drip diecuts

- (3) 8″ x 3″ Saga logo text diecuts

A few days ago we held a mini contest on Twitter where we posted a picture of a Laptop and the people in tweet land had to respond with the correct answer of who’s it was for a chance to win a Saga sticker pack (yes, we stole the idea from NS). In about 10 minutes it was over and we had a winner! So upon preparing the sticker pack to be shipped we thought we would include the alien vs predator dvd that has been floating around the office for some time. So now Charlie (contest winner) can enjoy the fruits of a terrible hollywood movie that probably didn’t even sound good on paper but it was made anyway, that’s the way it goes you scratch our backs we’ll scratch yours. Thanks everyone who responded, we will be doing twitter trivia and scavenger hunts (scavenger around SLC) once a week so stay tuned and add sagaouterwear to get in on your chance to win.

        The most random series of events played out last night and today.  Yes entirely and utterly random, so I sleep in and miss my park shoot with Poor Boyz (fell asleep in Timberline Parking lot) and so I try and call Alport to get me up there for the shoot no luck.  So I am sitting in the parking lot, and a car pulls up, little do I know that the person in the car is Bruce Weber, world class photographer.  He tells me about the Ralph Lauren Winter collection shoot they are doing and they want to shoot some photo’s of me.

I find this to be pretty bizzare so I show up the next day and I am thrown  in the mix with all these uber models, crazyness, they paid me 50$ and I guess if they run an ad I get some bomb skrilla, we shall see. Either way, I was photographed by a legend, I saw some extremely gorgeous Russian Models, and I WAS WEARING SAGA PANTS THE ENTIRE TIME, haha I’m never wearing a knit sweater with moose on it ever again, even though they let me keep the sweater, should look good at the next Christmas party.

I cannot read this interview, and I don’t remember what I even said.  The kid I interviewed with was really cool, he spoke english so it was pretty easy to do, i didn’t speak his language, and I have never seen so many xyz’s in my life.

check it out though, the photos are BA, bad ass read disclaimer below before you click on the link:let me assure

***The rest of the interview and probably the entire site will make about as much sense as this photo posted above***
