New Shades

October 28th, 2009

There comes a time in every person’s life when you have to suck it up and buy new sunglasses.  Whether you have scratched your old ones, they are out of style or you lost them one night at a wedding reception you simply have to have fresh shades.  I am considering 1 of 3 Smith optics.

Celebrity Look-A-Likes

Tony Little vs. Jeff Brown.

Recently, someone commented that TVS Yardboss Jeff Brown looked like Tony Little.  We tried to get him on the gazelle trainer for this look-a-like photo, but we don’t have one.  I know that is hard to believe.  Sadly, the picture of Jeff does not highlight his pony tail, but otherwise I think we proved that he is a spitting image of Mr. Little.

BOGNER! BOGNER! BOGNER!

October 22nd, 2009

Every year at TetonVillageSports.com a priviledged group of product testers get to travel to exotic locations around the world and test. This year we wanted to highlight Bogner of America and in order to do so we visited the Swiss Alps and brought along with us the 2009-2010 Winter Line:

Here we have Squirrel Murphy in the Elaine Long Pant and Vega Jacket. Luckily he has a tiny frame and can fit in women’s apparel. Remember to always put safety first.

blog-3
Chip Galusha is really putting it to the Mens Radar Pant and Echo Jacket. He is now a Bogner sponser athlete. Way to go Chip!

blog-5
Lucia brought her skates along and tore up the ice in about 5 minutes. With a zamboni on hand the Connie Stretch Pant allowed her to excute the perfect triple axle double lutz combo. You get a 10 in my book Lucia!

blog-4
Cliff decided to test out the mountaineering capabilities of Fire + Ice Menswear. Decked out in the Radar Pant and a layered Berto Top Cliff came back smiling. EXTREME!

blog-6
The highlight of the trip was getting to watch Wanye and Garth as they dressed to the nines to record one last episode of “Wayne’s Power Minute”. Party on Guys!

Special thanks to Bogner for this great opportunity and for the Snow Owl!

Where do former TVS employees go when they leave the nest?

October 20th, 2009

Just got an email from a loyal TVS customer in Denver.  She says

Apparently they go to ridiculously fun 80s ski parties where they inevitably run into members of the TVS extended family.
Please note Nick’s phenomenal blue-steel….

You don’t have to be in Jackson to have a good time PART II

October 19th, 2009

This weekend some of the team members from TetonVillageSports.com travelled to Kirby, WY for the Grand Opening of the Wyoming Whiskey Distillery. Distiller’s were brought in from Maker’s Mark in Kentucky and the branders from California. I’m sure they are excited to be venturing to Kirby, a small town in the middle of Wyoming with population: 57. Although the Whiskey will not be good and ready for 2 to 6 mores years we still had fun. The weather was perfect, I think I got my last sunburn of the summer. Local Jackson band, Mandatory Air, starring the one and only Mac Munro rocked the celebration. The governor spoke. Three Soviet Mig Fighter Jets flew over from Driggs, ID and did some tricks. Snake River Brewery provided refreshments. Megan Brown showed us her moves. A moto man from Casper, helped us party down. We got our hats branded with some help from Jake the Brander. And at the end of the day walked away with some fresh ink to remember where we were on October 17th, 2009 forever.
