The Bald E-Gal Productions crew made a visit to the Celtek Jib Farm this winter. If you have never heard about the Jib Farm, it is the brainchild of local legends Bjorn and Erik Leines. The secret farm features all kinds of interesting features for riders to get creative, which they definitely did as you will see in this video. Tons of big names in this one, I wish we would have been invited.

A small crew called Emzy that we hadn’t heard of recently sent us an Afton late-season edit. Low and behold it featured the riding of local-legend Ryan Paul plus the rest of the Emzy crew. Definitely a fun edit once you make it past the scary beginning. Just kidding guys, be sure to check out the rest of the Emzy blog after you get Gaga.

Volcom just concluded their Peanut Butter Rail Jam tour at Mammoth Mountain on April 16th giving away a total of $25k in loot. Jesse Paul, Ryan Paul, Cullen Bernklau, Benny Milam, Vanessa Moore, Emily Blewitt and Sara Winger were there representing our great state and stealing a bit of that cash for themselves. In the men’s open Jesse Paul took home 1st while Ryan Paul pulled in a tight 2nd and Cullen Bernklau took home 4th. Vanessa, Sara and Emily took home 3rd, 4th and 5th respectively in the girl’s open. In the 15 and Under class Benny Milam grabbed 2nd. While Minnesota dominated the podium Ryan Paul just wasn’t happy taking home 2nd so he decided to take home the prize of “Electric’s Gooeyest Move of the Day” earning him an extra $1,000. Congrats to all our riders who represented MN in style. Check out the highlight video for some red hot action or pick up some more details over at Volcom’s site.
