Paper Snowboard w/ Signal Snowboards
In this month’s Every Third Thursday, Dave Lee and the Signal crew set out to make a snowboard out of a product that is basically built to fail—paper. Paper has very little structural integrity, which only worsens when it’s damp. So it makes perfect sense to try to make this material into a weight bearing, torsion tortured, snow-sliding device with the help of the crew at Ernest Packaging. Dave meets up with Signal teamrider Melissa Riitano and Morrison Hsieh at Copper Mountain in Colorado to see if this board can take the punishment—how many runs do you think they’ll get out it—one run, two? On the upside this “paper shredder” is totally recyclable!

This months episode was another quick turnaround! The following photo was posted to my instagram on 12/12/13 which is one week before the video goes live to Network A. However, the final edit is actually due on Monday. That’s a four day turnaround!

This months Every Third Thursday was a pretty fun edit! Normally we’ll do a sit down interview after the riding segments been finished and figure out exactly what was accomplished and weave a nice storyline. This episode we threw all of that organized, “TV” wannabe stuff out the window and just had some fun.
This board was a total failure and that was definitely a concern going into post-production. No one wants to show their failures. but keep in mind that conflict resolution is something that keeps your viewer attached and it makes for great story. So don’t shy away from focusing on the failures, just make them spectacular.
