The Eastern Boarder Movie

Anyone who follows snowboarding knows that every major movie filmed from the previous year is released in the fall. Recently released was the Eastern Boarder snowboard team's first video. It was titled, "The Eastern Boarder Movie." Eastern Boarder is a snowboard, skateboard, and bike shop with 5 locations in the Northeast with the original being in Massachusetts. To anyone who doesn't know, Eastern Boarder typically sponsors the majority of the pro snowboarders that come from the East Coast. Anyway, the video features the riding of Chris Carr, Teddy Lavoie, Shane Fortier, Tanner Pendleton, Colleen Quigley, Brandon Reis, Sam Hulbert, Big Mike Gonsalves, and more. A few of the team members are recent alumni of our very own Plymouth State University. The alumni are Chris Carr, Ted Lavoie and Big Mike, all of which have their degrees and are now pursuing a career as professional snowboarders. The movie is filmed all over the U.S. by team member Tanner Pendleton and Matt Roberge. The sponsors of the movie are Forum Snowboards, K2 Snowboarding, Oakley, Red Bull, Ride Snowboards, Waterville Valley and Snowboarder Magazine. In my opinion, I think this movie is one of the best to come out this year and I would rate the movie 4.5 snowboards out of 5.
