Janky @ Boreal - Dirty Thirties

by JANKYfilms
Jun 2021 - 586 views

You might think to yourself "They've really matured in their thirties," or "At least they'll be smarter about the decisions they make while skiing," but you'd be wrong. After almost 15 years of skiing together, we still can't help ourselves. When the weather is good and the vibe is right, we just want to do what we've always done - have fun and push each other on the hill.

Boreal had a great spring park going by the time April 2021 rolled around, and the Janky crew set about making questionable skiing decisions and generally not acting their age. Featuring the riding of Nate Calabro, Sam Barstow, Keenan Hawkins, Hazen Woolson, Nicky B, Garrett Russell, and Andy Hayes.

The EcoMansion's Funkiest Backyard Setup Ever

by JANKYfilms
Jun 2020 - 2.2K views

As the coronavirus put the world on lock-down, Tahoe was getting hit with feet of much-needed snow after a dry January and February. With resorts shut down for the season and nowhere to go, the Janky boys got to work on arguably their finest backyard setup ever. With everything from rails, gaps, a backie booter and even a jump off their sled shed, there were plenty of funky options to get silly and throw some twizzles.

Featuring Keenan Hawkins, Timm Phillips, Hazen Woolson and cameos from Nate Calabro, Tyler Smith and Billy Boy.

Throughout their battles with noodle bowls the pair explore the volcanic peaks, powder-filled ski areas and hidden roadside features of Japan's snowy north island in "Bean," their trusty Nissan Dayz.

After 4 seasons of drought conditions, the average snowfall of 2016 has been the best winter in a long time.

The April Fools

by JANKYfilms
Aug 2014 - 1.4K views

Mid-winter in Tahoe was underwhelming indeed for the Janky crew - low snow totals and high pressure forced them to seek out spring-time activities, for example the Second Annual Nick Mota Invitational and the Castle Peak Jump Sessions. Just when they thought that winter had run its course, Mother Nature surprised them all with a cold system of storms that left over 6' of light powder over the Tahoe basin over a week. Everybody scrambled to ski as much powder as their legs and work schedules would allow, not wanting it to end. Enjoy as the crew seeks out new backcountry locations in South Lake Tahoe and pays homage to the freeskiing mecca that is Squaw Valley. Songs: Monster Rally - Sun Videos Big Spider's Back - Terminal Seat The Guess Who - These Eyes Vance Joy - Riptide (FlicFlac Remix) Riders: Anthony Santos, Peter Calhoun, Keenan Hawkins, Austin Hawkins, JP Schlick, Andrew Tarca, Josh A, Jacob Schwarz, Hazen Woolson, Timm Phillips, Eli Sobel

The Castle Peak Sessions

by JANKYfilms
Jun 2014 - 1.4K views

The winter of 13-14 was looking much like the last 2 seasons by the time March rolled around, and the Janky Crew was faced with another winter of drought. Low snow totals, high pressure systems and high temperatures left them with few options, and building a jump in the ample corn snow seemed like the right move. Luckily Tim Kelliher had spotted a likely location along the south-facing flank of Castle Peak off of I-80 about an hour hike from Boreal, and the idea was born - build a step-up jump and they will come. We spent 1 day building it and another 2 days sessioning it into the last minutes of twilight with a whole bunch of dudes.

The Second Annual Nick Mota Invitational Offical Recap Video

by JANKYfilms
Apr 2014 - 3.5K views

Nick Mota, local Tahoe City resident and renowned Meat Cannon/Luge Expert worked for 7 days straight tirelessly building gypsy features with a crew of dedicated friends on the secret slopes of Tahoe Donner. What resulted was truly a spectacle of berms, banks, hips, rhythm jumps and poppy booters with a fair share of scary must-make gaps that together created what we all know as the course for the Second Annual Nick Mota Invitational. With one drop-in, the course split into two separate tracks; the "Meat Luge," a winding and twisting trail of rhythm jumps, 90 degree berm turns and a hip, and the "Meat Cannon," a line that showcased a near-vertical aerials-style jump, a death-defying 35' gap, and a gelande style high-speed sender. With this monstrous snow creation the stage was set for Tahoe's best skiers and riders to risk it all. It's hard to describe it in words, perhaps a video would do the trick.
