1. Transworld Snowboarding have tested 153 different snowboards for their 09/10 Good Wood board test. That's a whole lotta waxing. (from Shayboarder who went along to this year's test last week)

Here's our round-up of some of the snowboard and boardsports related news stories we liked on the internet this week.

Jeremy Jones has launched a website. It’s called The Real Jeremy Jones – but has that helped you actually work out which Jeremy Jones we’re talking about?
 

I am not sure whether I love her or hate her....Alexis Rowland the wunderkind snowboarder who at only 8years old is just above and beyond anything I have seen. Anyway, this time she is gracing the New York Times,a little late as the story was posted 2 weeks ago...still worth a read and check out the video near  the end of the article. So ridiculous - in a good way!

Check it out here...NY Times Article

Keen to keep up with the latest snow news this winter with us? Does the thought of missing one of our updates leave you in a panic and reaching for the nearest bottle of Pinot Grigot?

We’ve got the solution – our new Twitter feed.

We’ve had one for a while – www.twitter.com/powderroom which we occasionally update with random musings and links and which we use to follow who’s saying what about planet snow.

Now we have another feed which provides links to every piece of content we publish on the site in the blog and news feeds – how fabulous. To subscribe to this feed visit www.twitter.com/powderroom_feed

Nikita are running a contest to give one lucky lady a top-to-toe outfit of her choice. All you have to do is go to http://nikita.seshn.com and post a blog about your best shred day. Include as much detail as you like and  pictures too. You can then gather votes for your post (ie tell all your mates!).

The three entries with the most votes will then be judged by the Nikita team and the winner will get the goods.

Entries have to be in by November 15 and it’s open worldwide – hurrah!

You might have noticed that we’ve had a bit of a facelift!

I was just lookin at this and thought some of you ladies might like to go have a look...its the new Ride Ladies site. All the new range is there as well as profiles and interviews with the womens team.

Oh and just as a side note...I am in love with the new artist collaboration Tokidoki range (well the way it looks at least)..this board and bindings are fab!
