how early do you want because he didn't really start getting good till he was like 17-18 and he has some good shots in shanghai six

Shanghai six definitely has some good classic colby footage. Lots of good urban in long story short too.

Absolutely yes. Sick song, sick editing and Colby brought crazy rail trickery with 50-50 switchups on a rainbow and such. His jumps were not at the best level yet, but in just half a season he went to throw that carve cork 5 mute in Shanghai Six. That's fucking progress.

Colby came out of waterville and really got his first break by winning mega-mother-hucker at Mt Snow (like in 2003 or 2004 or something). He won with a switch 7 misty, a trick that no one else was doing, and I haven't seen anyone else do since.

shortly thereafter he was picked up by k2 and became a digger at high north. then Wicked came out and the rest is history. so he came up pretty quickly.
