Interview on Buoloco.com

By: Paul Gemignani



Hey everyone, just wanted to share with you a little interview I did on Buoloco the other week. I talk a little bit about the new YES. Snowboards, Nike snowboard boots, and my binding set-up. If you have ever read any interviews on Rodney Mullen the skateboard, he talks about how back around 2007 he started skating switch on his skateboard to get rid of any "preferred stance" and I thought that was a cool idea, so I have been working on that the last winter season, getting rid of my preferred stance which is "goofy" and will be continuing riding switch on a lot of my back country riding and steep lines. Not sure how it will work out, but it's a new challenge, which I am always down for. You only live once! Fuck it.

Book Review - Love Thy Neighbor

By: Paul Gemignani





This book will put life in perspective. Recalling the tales of the Bosnia war, which was only in the 90's. It depicts the struggles between international politicians, the U.N., reporters in the field, and the genocide that the world let happen, not so long ago...I am surprised schools don't teach about this war in school. It is gruesomely similar to the horrible events that happened during WWII. A really powerful piece of literature...

Paul Gemignani & Friends Summer Living

By: Paul Gemignani

My summer on the West Coast this year was one for the books. Lots of sun, sand, beer and babes. Not to mention lots of driving around in the black car of death, topping out at 5,000 miles in about 2 months. I am fully ready to take it easy this fall now until the first snow fall. Looking forward to not driving all over, and maybe putting down the car keys and pick up a good book. If anyone has some good book ideas, please suggest them below. Otherwise, cheers - to another summer with friends!

Californication

By: Paul Gemignani

So recently I made my way from Colorado to meet up with my good friend Moss Halladay in California before I head to Mt. Hood, Oregon for the summer. We met up in Mission Viejo with my other friend Ian and kicked it for a few weeks on the Cali coast. It was nice to see the open water again, which I don't get in Colorado. The ocean is so awesome, I wish I lived closer to it. Got the chance to surf for a few days in Malibu with buddy Trevor Jacobs. The beach break was gnarly and was breaking at 6 or 7 feet at times and both Moss and I got broke off by waves. After chilling in Cali, Moss and I made our way up the 101 coast to Oregon. Making a few stops along the way in San Francisco to check out The North Face world headquarters, where we checked out what they got brewing in there cubicles. After that, we made our way into Oregon camping along the way...so make sure to check back in a couple weeks to see where the hell we end up next...
