    hey you guys. I followed Jamie’s example and entered “snowfix” into urban dictionary. It is currently under review and when it is published ill post the link. Can i have a shout out now?

  4. Frazer May 22nd, 2007 at 11:43 pm

    hey guys excellent job on season two can we expect a season three or any episodes over the summer

  5. Reegan in Canada May 23rd, 2007 at 5:16 pm

    this is a message for johno, you don’t have to answer to this if you don’t want to though, its a stupid question. at the end of the show, you were giving tips on how to get sponsored for either skiing or snowboarding. i’m a snowboard racer and i do GS and SBX and i have been racing for about 5 seasons. how do you think a racer like me would get sponsored? are there even any companies that sponser racers..cause it seems like right now that snowboarding is totally dominated by freestyle riding (no effense)
    thanks,
    Reegan
    P.S…awesome show guys!

  6. Kieran in canada May 24th, 2007 at 12:58 am

    love the episode guys. Any change they’ll be any summer episodes like in season 1 or somthing like that.

  7. Stokesy May 24th, 2007 at 6:36 am

    Hey guys,

    Glad to see you back on the air. I certainly needed my snowfix with all the sun I have been getting lately!

    My top tip for summer….. Travel!

    After my season in Whistler I have been travelling down the West Coast of America, and will be heading around the world for the rest of the year, before going back to Whistler next season to teach Snowboarding.

    Keep the summer episodes coming, I know they helped me through the rough summer months last year!

    Can’t wait for Season 3!!

    Great to see you all. I was missing you. Looking forward to some skiing vid’s over the summer not just boarding. Jools you look great in the summer as I expected. You look soo perky, are they really that perky? Maybe a bikini shot this summer?

    PS John was drunk.

  9. donal(do-nal) May 26th, 2007 at 3:44 am

    did u get into trouble on the escalator

  10. Flea May 27th, 2007 at 6:35 am

    Hey hey

    Firstly Mean show guys, keep them coming.
    As a Kiwi I think the “bench top” they refuring to is a table top, just them sothern folk are a bit odd down there.

    When are you guys going to go for a trip to NZ????

    Keep it up guys.

    See You

    Imagine my surprise when i saw bad boys in bulgaria was featured on snowfix, and no i didn’t come up with the title.

    that is so sick and i got far too excited when i saw myself

    awesome show and it’d be cool to know what you thought of the vid

  12. Eric May 28th, 2007 at 9:45 pm

    Hey guys great show and thanks for the snowgel idea!!!! I already purchased some outdoor carpet(approch and landing), built a rail, now just need to build a jump and some snowgel. I contacted my local mountain about a summer rail jam! Wouldn’t that be the sickest thing ever! And while i was surfing my mountains site i found something out about that the vid posted in the poles vs. no poles debate for the no poles side. The kid Tom Wallisch is from my freaking mountain. So if we ever get this summer rail jam hopefully Tom will be there and we can send in some sick footage! Later and keep up the great show

  13. PJ May 29th, 2007 at 11:13 pm

    the moon man better be right

  14. Frazer May 31st, 2007 at 12:32 am

    hey guys um i was just wondering if you could do like a five minute episode just about like what summer snow fix is gonna be like as in how many episodes what you’ll have on it and just what we should expect about summer snowfix in general thanx a lot

  15. cassie May 31st, 2007 at 12:34 am

    wow..i love the show. found out about it when i found the podcasts on my iPod. anyways, as great as the show is, i think you need more skiing in there because skiing is way totally awesome. and also, how can i watch episodes from the first season? well..i think thats all….

    happy birthday timmy!!!!

  22. Backyard Terrain Park.com June 25th, 2007 at 8:31 pm

    Hi there. Thanks for the SnowGel plug. Really cool. I had no idea. I am curious how you first learned about SnowGel. Well, here are a few more details for your loyal fans:

    SnowGel is environmentally friendly. That is why we offer colors like Global Warming Green, and Glacier Blue. And, the other color, Yellow Snow, well that’s just funny. The super expandable polymer is biodegradable, safe and non-toxic, for ages 4 and up.

    Thanks again!

  23. Jools June 27th, 2007 at 9:28 pm

    Hey kids there’ll be a new ep real soon, hang in there!!! Love to y’all XXX

  24. Charlie (from Snowfix) June 29th, 2007 at 1:48 am

    a cross between snowboarding and skateboarding, you can only ride one way on it but it still is
    funn the vid has me getting towed behind a bike but you can ride w/o the bike the thing is called a wave board its like 75$(USA).
    i have been watching snowfix since its been out
    that snow gel stuff is
    realy fun me and my neigbor made a little set up with a skateboarding rail and getto rigged box but the stuff works mine worked for like 2 weeks with out a cover on it just sitting there it is worth the money…SCREW GLOBAL WARMING skiing in washington was unbelevable this year in november alone we had just under 50 inches.

  46. Greggles July 12th, 2007 at 7:26 pm

    Wotup everyone.
    Just got back form a holiday riding in the alps, morzine was a bit shit cos it was pissing it down but we also went to les deux alpes, alpe d’huez and les arcs. Deux alpes still had loads of snow, shed loads of summer skiiers, you should go there for the summer episodes, what we saw of the park looked pretty good but we were paying more attention on staying upright as bikes and snow although hilarious aren’t the best match for grip. Also, a good remedy for summer withdrawal symptoms is www.jibberishgame.com Freestyle ski, pretty basic but completely free, check it.

  47. pierre cardoso July 12th, 2007 at 11:05 pm
