terje Snowboarding 180 Olympic Charter
In a bold move that is sure to ruffle some of the elite old feathers of the Olympic Commission, Terje Haakonsen and a battalion of riders today signed The Snowboarding 180 Olympic Charter in Oslo, Norway. Basically it states that unless current non-FIS slopestyle events will count towards Olympic qualification, none of them will participate in the Olympics if Slopestyle gets voted in. Read the full declaration after the jump.

Olympics x New Era

van2 Olympics x New Era
Despite how wack Scotty Lago got treated and the fact that its not very wintery in Vancouver, the winter Olympics are still pretty cracking. These New Era’s in assorted colors we spotted are dope but largely sitting on the shelf due to the overwhelming preference for cowboy hats.

Scotty Lago Sent Home From Olympics

0219 scotty lago splash Scotty Lago Sent Home From Olympics
In some serious bullshit, Scotty Lago got bounced from the Olympics today because of this picture that showed up on TMZ this morning. The official word that was just circulated says Lago volunteered to leave and miss the closing ceremonies but word around town is that the IOC wanted to take his medal away and going home was a compromise. Seriously, on the scandal scale, this pic rates like a 2 and to fuck a 22 year old kid over for something as PG as a little medal biting is ridiculous. Rad Collector is in Vancouver right now and can tell you that what’s happening across this whole city all day and night during the games is a lot more obscene than this. It’s a further mistreatment of snowboarding and snowboarding culture that doesn’t want or need to adhere to archaic Olympic jock standards. Snowboarding is supposed to be fun. Read the AP story here.

Rad Collector - Shaun White x Target x Times Square
Say what you want about Shaun White, but its pretty hard to front on the billboards that Target just rolled out to hype his run for the gold in Vancouver. Peep this shit, the kid took over a whole city block! Keeping it in the fam, the billboards were designed by none other than his older brother Jesse. A couple more angles after the jump.

Burton 2010 US Olympic Uniforms

Rad Collector - Burton 2010 US Olympic Uniforms
Burton unveiled the 2010 US Olympic Snowboard Team uniform at their flagship store in NYC last night. The mellow yet patriotic red, white and blue plaid over denim jacket and pant combo will certainly have every other winter Olympic athlete wondering why the hell they didn’t take up snowboarding instead of whatever lame sport they are doing, while the Gore-Tex fabric should keep the team dry in Vancouver’s notoriously wet, heavy snow. More looks at the uniform after the jump.

Errol Kerr | Jamaican Ski Team

Rad Collector - Errol Kerr Jamaican Ski Team
Obviously we don’t cover much or really any ski, we felt this was rad enough for inclusion. The sole member of the Jamaican Olympic Ski Team was in NYC yesterday to help debut the new Warren Miller film Dynasty. Although born in Brooklyn and raised largely on the West Coast, Errol Kerr’s dad was from Jamaica and his decision to rep Jamaica after originally qualifying for the US Team came about as a way to pay tribute to his father and to his Jamaican heritage. That’s dope. Here’s a couple pics of Errol in his custom Jamaica jersey by Spyder of all people. Who knew they were cool? Peep Errol’s site right here. The back after the jump.
