Sure, snowboard movie season is over. It's been replaced by the season of absolutely zero snow and daily temperatures of 70 degrees. Due to this depressing fate of winter so far, we regress to searching for a happier time of shred and have discovered CAPiTA releasing full part edits from their 2011 film "Defenders of Awesome". Thank the heavens.

Now, if you haven't seen this movie in it's entirety then you most likely need to get your head checked. You should also stop reading and head to iTunes to get it. CAPiTA and their team killed it in every sense of the word last year which is why it is totally acceptable to repeatedly watch each part until it actually starts snowing somewhere.

The featured item this week is somewhat of a necessity when it comes to going riding - a snowboard.
