What is the Channel?

It snowed a lot in Whistler last year. So much in fact that it limited where Jussi Oksanen, John Jackson, Mikey Rencz, Mark Sollors, and Mikkel Bang could even go to film. So they stayed in the trees. Button up your jacket, pull your hat down over your ears and grab a hot cocoa because Part 2 of Whistler Deep Days will give you chills.

The 2015 Burton European Open presented by MINI is a wrap. Congratulations to Kelly Clark, Chloe Kim and Nadja Purtschert for taking the women's podium and Iouri Podladtchikov, Ayumu Hirano and David Habluetzel for rounding out the men's podium. Watch the video for all of today's best action!

With the ups come the downs, and no one knows that better than a professional snowboarder. A product of Standing Sideways, comes the slam section. Either like this or cringe at each, they are bound to happen.

Remember that Euro Railvolution Snow Porn from a couple weeks ago featuring Wojtek Pawlusiak, Niels Schack, Denis Leontyev and Ludwig Lejkner? Well it wasn't all rainbows and ice cream sherbert out there. Those guys are all really good, but they had to earn those tricks and the side result was this collection of bails.

Burton Presents is a web series showcasing Burton's top riders. In this episode, Mark McMorris bucks the contest kid stereotype as he steps away from the scoreboards and bright lights to drop hammers from British Columbia to Australia, Aspen, Japan and Austria. From heavy corked rotations to pow turns, it was a season highlighted by fun adventures with friends and a necessary reset switch following the heaviest contest circuit ever.

Turning is one of the most basic moves on a snowboard, but also the most important. Being a good turner is harder than it would seem and Terje Haakonsen is a real good turner. In the fifth trailer for 13, John Jackson talks about what it's like for him to share a part with Terje and Terje talks about why he likes freeriding and landing forward so much. 13 drops next Monday, September 17th on iTunes, DVD and Blu-Ray.
