BYEP teams up with the Billy Poole Foundation BIG SKY MONTANA!

Big Sky Youth Empowerment and the Billy Poole Foundation take the stage in Big Sky for two days of good times! Check out the cast and crew:A group of 17 athletes from the Cottonwood Canyons made the trek from the high dessert to the high state of Montana for two days of shredding, coaching, and just goofing around with rad kids from BYEP. So the ultimate thing that brought us all to Montana to gang up with BYEP is this woman right here: she had a phenomenal son named Billy Poole. When Billy passed away over a year ago, this wonderful woman (Phyllis Erck) and her friends, family, and Billy’s mountain families all over the world put together a foundation in his name… The Billy Poole Foundation is designed to get kids on the snow— regardless of backgrounds, financial situations, and or other circumstances that would disable kids from getting out and skiing or snowboarding— Phyllis is shown here talking about Billy and how he had to in-fact work his butt off for every ounce of ski time that he had as a kid, how he achieved his dreams… and then how he lived them until the day he died.   AND … this guy would be the other reason that we were all out there. Mr. Drew Stoecklein organized the Utah end of things— SOOOOOooooooooo>>>>So put on your sunscreen :brush up on your technique: work out your steeze:and your style: then head to the pipe:-cause that’s where the BYEP kids and the Billy Poole Foundation pro-shredders will be :) 

The Mighty Swedesses! Generation Flinga…

It’s time for Generation FLINGA! These women are doing something special here. They’re traveling all over the world (Switzerland, USA, Austria, Japan) filming an all-women’s ski movie! Last stop was Salt Lake City, Utah: These women are NOT just swooshing turns down the groomers people—they’re here to slay-it — and they have been. Their project is unique-it’s unprecedented-and gaining a lot of forward momentum and publicity for women out there looking to shred hard with a camera around to document it. Check out their site and give them some props–cause I think this film is going to be impressive…. Get it chicas! I think you girls are amazing… keep slayin’ it… impressive ladies… most impressive. Generation Flinga -CHECK IT OUT!
