@ danonow, if I come visit does that mean you can 'snow' us around?

That's how I stored my bike for the winter. When it melts - It's time to ride!

Haha...argument is invalid...let me just get special permission from the mountain and have a professional photo crew bring lights in at 10 at night.

Depending on the situation, I guess, it might not be that hard to get time on the hill after hours permission. I'm from Northern Michigan, and a good crew and I had a photo session at Nubs Nob, lights were on for us, and one warming hut unlocked WITH heat on. They even supplied us, and one willing Nubs crew worker to stay and shuttle us hot laps with a resort snowmobile. We stayed until about 1 or 2 am that night. One beautiful quater pipe, one half shadowed half pipe, a full park. We just threw up some letters spelling Nubs Nob in most of our shots. A little free advertising for them. Now I was not the one who came up with the fine print and details, but I was apart of the whole thing. Makes you feel a VIP Pro Status, and a little ego boost to help slay the park beast. This video is a little bit higher scale than ours though, equipment and company backing wise.

Thats awesome! I wish my home mountains were like that. They see a bike and cringe haha. I just wanted to state that when they say your argument is invalid for not riding in the middle of the winter is, well, completely valid on a very basic level.

downhilldevuono97 (Feb 25, 2013 at 19:59)

This is such a creative way to advertise! Great job!

It also strengthens the parts. Freezing the aluminum for extended periods of time reinforces the integrity of the grain structure and makes it less likely to crack in the long run. It's sorta like heat-treating but the opposite concept that produces the same result; similar to the differences yet similarities between water fusion generated energy and nuclear fusion generated energy.

Yeah I know...it's just a limited batch intended for the guys competing in events like Rampage...pretty cool though.

The marketing person behind this campaign should get a raise Asap. Freezing the product line in ice cubes is ingenuous visual.

Brilliant ad from one of the best companies not only in the bike world but the outdoor industry as a whole. If Race Face started producing frames it would be a dream come true.

@Doudelidoulebikerfou , SDKmann said "IF" Race Face made frames, it'd be a dream come true. And I 100% agree with him, but would be saddened because I am Also a Rocky Mountain fan @phatone17

phatone17 (Feb 26, 2013 at 13:57)

yeah i'm pretty sure if RaceFace started making frames, it means that Rocky Mountain got bought, but I'm not super privy to their business.

It's a small detail, but the photog was wearing a sombrio beanie...the marketing manager at raceface has got it 99% spot on, and own gaoled that last little detail. He should have pulled the sombrio hat, burnt it and made him wear RF, after all he was being paid to do it....
