WATCH: AUSTEN SWEETIN'S BOARDSLIDE WORLDWIDE

Boardslide Worldwide started with a simple idea:
It is possible to ride your snowboard (in this case — but any board will do) as much as humanly possible, in both the strangest and most familiar places, with people whom you’ve known for many years or maybe just met.Last March, after filming Fully Baked, Griffin Siebert and I sat in the RV bed we had been sharing for the past week and dreamt of how insane it would be if we could summit Rishiri. Coming off a week of rain, snow and everything in between, “We had filled the skunk take,” as Griff would say. It was time to cash in.

Its terrain is filled with beautiful gullies and endless powder waves resembling point breaks, perfect for some high-quality party boarding. Rishiri has one of the harshest climates known to man and the weather is wildly unpredictable. We were feeling lucky.

The result is a surprising 20 minutes of pure boarding pleasure.
Whichever board you choose, I hope this inspires you to go out and slide around!
