Full Video Part!

Dear fans,

Seb Toots, and his sponsors O’Neill, Red Bull, Ride, and Oakley, in tandem with X Games and Sunset Films are pleased to bring you Seb’s full 2010-2011 video “part.”

Shot throughout this season, the video features Seb’s very best snowboarding from Montreal to Aspen, Switzerland to Utah. While you would expect to see his triple-cork incorporated into the segment, you might be surprised to also find a grip of urban jib shots which Seb began stacking in December.

Thanks for checking it out, and hope you enjoy it!

Toots Set to Ride Again!

Following the injury sustained in his ankle at the “Art of Flight” shoot in Aspen last month, Seb is preparing for his return to snow. His target: The 5-Star TTR ‘Billabong Ante-Up’ contest on July 1st in Whistler. The contest is a special one to Seb for two reasons: First, its on Canada Day. Second, he won the inaugural competition last year, taking home $20,000 CAD (those are worth even more than USD these days, folks!).

Says Toots about the planned return, “My ankle still is not 100%. But I’m confident that it will be in time for Ante Up. I can’t make any guarantees until I get out on the snow and test it out, but my plan right now is definitely to be there and to give it a shot.”

Attention contest organizers: Please be sure to have massive, perfect jumps. Thank you!

Full Video Premiers Here June 13th

The full video part is a collaborative effort from Seb’s sponsors including O’Neill, Ride Snowboards, Oakley, and the Red Bull Media House. Aside from Seb’s top contest footage, his best park and urban shots from the season will be unveiled. Seb says, “I’m so stoked to have these shots for a website. This is the first time I’ve had something outside of a snowboard movie. I didn’t have a lot of time to shoot this year because the season was crazy busy with contests, but I’m really happy with the final product.” On June 13th you can see all the shots that Seb’s stoked on right here!
