Capix Ski Team Rider Logan Imlach featured in Eye Trip...
Just wanted to let you all know that Eye Trip was released internationally on iTunes yesterday, and quickly rose to the #3 spot in the "TV Seasons" category in the US store (yeah, they classify action sports films as TV Shows). We just beat out Mad Men Season 4 and Californication Season 3 to get to what according to our distributor was the highest spot ever occupied by a Ski title, and in turn apparently was the most successful international launch of a ski film through iTunes.
We've also released an itunes-specific "teaser," (click here!
Thank you all for the continued stoke and support- we're looking forward to doing it even bigger and better next year.
Huge Crowd Attends Louie's Dedication
By Bill Tipple
About 400 residents attended a homecoming celebration for local Olympian Louie Vito Sunday afternoon at the Holland Theatre.
Fans were lined up outside the theatre as Louie was escorted in a limo just before two o'clock.
It was the Bellefontaine native's first appearance here since the Olympics.
Louie received proclamations from several elected officials, including State Senator Karen Gillmor, the Logan County Commissioners, State Representative Dave Burke, Bellefontaine Mayor Adam Brannon, and Congressman Jim Jordan.
Mayor Brannon (pictured with Louie) showcased a sign declaring Bellefontaine "The Hometown of Olympian Louie Vito." The signs will be placed at all entrances to the city.
Louie was praised for bringing national attention to our area through "Dancing with the Stars" and the Olympics.
Vito, 22, took the stage and thanked the community for all of its support over the last year.
He said "Dancing with the Stars" was a great experience that actually helped him prepare for the pressure of the Winter Olympics.
The professional snowboarder gave live commentary over special video highlights of "Dancing with the Stars" and his halfpipe runs in Vancouver.
Louie noted that Sunday was the first time he watched his Olympic event, mainly because he was so upset that he did not receive a medal. He placed 5th in the halfpipe and said he is already excited about the 2014 games in Russia.
The first 200 visitors on Sunday received a free commemorative T-shirt featuring Louie.
The free event featured door prizes, music by Skratchmatic Krew from Dayton, and autograph signing by Louie.
Although the event was set for two hours, Louie signed autographs until 5:45.

TOUR DESCRIPTIONThe SO-GNAR Mighty Midwest Snowboard Camp Tour is a series of 2-day youth snowboard camps coming to a mountain near you. Unlike traditional snowboard camps that require you to fork out an unholy amount of dough and travel to some unfamiliar, far-away resort, the SO-GNAR Mighty Midwest Snowboard Camp Tour brings the fun, progression and pro-rider coaching to your local shred spot. With 12 stops across the Midwest, Colorado, California, Washington and our first-ever camp in Japan, this year's Tour is bound to be the best ever.
TOUR HISTORYThe SO-GNAR Mighty Midwest Snowboard Camp Tour was started 5 years ago by pro-snowboarder and Midwest native, Pat Milbery. Pat's original goal was to give back to his hometown community in Minnesota by making traditional, expensive, distant snowboard camps available to local kids who didn't have the financial means or resources to attend. This is the first year Pat has expanded the Tour outside the Midwest region to include camps in Colorado, California, Washington and Japan. He hopes to continue the growth of the SO-GNAR Mighty Midwest Snowboard Camp Tour year after year to include camps all across the globe.
