Day 1: Nick Visconti At Windells

Posted on: June 7, 2010 by admin

A message from Arbor team rider Nick Visconti. Unedited of course.

“Mild sunburns, a pint of alo vera, and a town full of hipsters- yesterday was nothing but epic. The previous night we danced the night away and captivated a stubborn society of black leather jackets and Pbr drinkers. Cali Brotha’s bringing Cali Rays. After 20 days of rain, we rolled into town and brought and epic sunny day. Dropped by West Linn and Burnside skateparks, pulled our socks high, put our vans on and heshed! After we rolled up to Windells, stopped by Thai home- the best Thai in the world. Got satisfied, re energized and dropped by Windells. Uhhh more skating. The new skatepark at Windells is perhaps the most epic skate park in history. But, after a few meetings with new head coach, Danger Dave and the face of Windells, Mary Walsh, we called it a night! Wait what????? Hell no. The Shack- karaokee with the Arkians, Windells coaches, and councelors kicking off Session 1 at Windells. Most were plastered, all sang, and everyone woke up in pain. The day before arrival day. Shout out to Arbor, Sessions, Vonzipper and Windells camp to hyping the campers and staff. We are kicking off the season with a bang!”

Stay posted for more updates….

Windells With Nick Visconti!

Hey kids, it’s time to burn those text books and start thinking about summer camp. Why not go snowboarding this summer? That’s right…head to Mt. Hood and get your summer shred on at Windells summer snowboard camp and get schooled by Arbor International team rider, Nick Visconti. There is no doubt that good times will be had. (Please don’t actually burn your books, we can’t really condone that. Maybe just bury them. The new edition will be out next year anyway.)


Here’s the kind of fun you may have missed last season:

It’s that hazy time of year again. You’re sitting in your chair in math class, half-listening as your teacher drones on about the quadratic formula and half-staring out the window at blue skies and green grass. Summer vacation is on the horizon and the best place to spend it is at Mount Hood in Oregon with Windells. Lucky for you, there’s still time to get in on the action.
Windells Session 1, June 6-13, is starting summer off with a bang! Over the last year, we have built some wild new features on campus and the campers during Session 1 will be the first to try everything out! Two new dry slopes and campus bag jump for perfecting tricks and the biggest skatepark in the Northwest that caters to both beginning skaters learning to push around as well as concrete wave aficionados.
There’s more, too! Session 1 is getting an infusion of wild style. Nick Visconti, Tim Humphreys, and Austin Hironaka will be captivating your minds while igniting creativity on and off the mountain. Along side Sessions and Think Thank professionals, Tahoe Dangerzone’s Brent Oftedal and NJ Petersen will be catalysts for a dynamic Windells summer shredding epidemic.
This is the second summer that Nick Visconti is kicking off the season at Windells and he is ridiculously excited. “I’m holding my breath till camp starts, I hope camp is soon because I am already feeling light-headed!”
More mystical than last year, he goes on to explain about what campers can potentially expect on and off hill. “I have been slaving away to unravel the ancient mysteries of Egyptian building technology to create an unfathomable feature with cosmic mystique. Although minds of modern civilization are not yet ready to understand our discovery, Hump, Naka and I will unveil the unknown. Session 1 will rediscover the intricacies of the mind and explore the possibilities of a snowboard.”
