All last month was all hands on deck here at STS HQ as we pitched for Contour’s business. The late nights and weekends paid-off proper when we were given the nod for our “It’s On” campaign. We’re stoked to work with a company that syncs up so tightly with our own style and attitude. Currently we’re in the middle of helping launch their new kick-ass ContourROAM camera that’s already taking the action sports world by storm. It’s tough, compact, waterproof out of the box and has a killer single switch recording system, which makes it ridiculously simple to capture all of your insane antics in jaw dropping HD. Keep your eyes peeled for all the rad new Contour work that’s set to drop in Transworld and pretty much every other action sports mag on the planet. This is going to be a good time.
Here’s the Facebook app we did up to get things rolling.

We just brought a new man-vention screaming into the world that’s more badass than nunchucks, Gold Bond Medicated Powder and the kegerator combined. It’s called the Blacktop 360. If you’re the type who’s into tailgating and cooking meats outside, this will change your damn life. It’s got a deep fryer, infrared grill, griddle and warmer, and all in one slick portable setup. To push things out proper like, we whipped up a website, two mobile sites, four webisodes and perhaps the most ridiculous product tech spec spot you’ll ever lay your peepers on. We’ll be releasing more craziness in the next few weeks involving hot air balloons, bikini clad chicks with machine guns, meat sweats, cobra blood and riot police. Brace yourselves–it’s going to get nuts up in here. Do yourself a solid and go pick one up at Sports Authority or any other store where dude stuff is sold. Big ups to Bravo Sports for creating something so rad and having the huevos to do good work.

Burton just dropped their new winter line at board shops errrywhere accompanied by a bad ass teaser campaign that led up to the unveiling of their new hotness. They tapped us in to do up a Facebook app to spread the good word and hype their live broadcast on the night of the big reveal. We were stoked how it turned out and glad to being doing more biz with the granddaddy of snowboarding.

STS has been on the hunt for a wordsmith for four scores and a fortnight. We finally found our missing writer livin hard and driving tractors up on a ranch in Oregon. Enter the notorious Jake Gunderson. Besides being a dead ringer for the Butcher on Gangs of New York, Jake writes the copy so hot it makes you stop drop and roll. We knew we liked him when he worked 40 hours in his first 2 days at STS without whining once. Whether it’s a big pitch or a big barroom brawl, Jake is the guy you want on your side. STS is stoked to have him. Welcome to the madness Butcher. Welcome.

So we had a test party last week for all of our OR peeps. Filled a couple kitty pools full of booze, bought out a taco stand and hired a DJ. Then we threw open the garage door and waited to see what happened. Long story short, shit popped off proper like and the melee spilled out into the streets. We forcibly shut things down around 3am and called an armada of cabs to haul our hard partying friends home. We officially declare this test party a success and are currently planning something that is sure to bring the riot police. Thanks to Planet Gear Discrete Headwear and Outdoor Utah Adventure Journal for throwing down with us. Good times.

We recently just swooped up the white wizard of all developers. A big STS welcome to infamous Josh Batchelor. This dude is 2 legit 2 quit. Got any nerd questions? Come at him bro. Chances are he’s been there and done that. Twice. With his eyes closed. While eating 3 Otter Pops. He gets things done on the computers so hard he makes Neo look like a luddite. Did we mention he takes care of business on a snowboard too? We’re stoked to have him aboard the STS express and can’t wait to see what craziness he conjures up with his glorious code.
