Recently by Simon Dumont

By now you should have all seen the unique back/front fold out cover that Freeskier Magazine chose to utilize to commemorate Simon Dumont and his successful world record quest last spring. Recently, Freeskier invited Simon, his crew, and all his sponsors to their World Headquarters for a bit of celebration. Now, we haven't really been keeping track, but we don't think Freeskier exactly rolls out the red carpet like this for every cover.

Check out coverage here, and a full set of photos from the evening here.

Thanks, Freeskier!

Beaverton, OR, 2008 - Multiple X-Games golds, world-records, and a mind-blowing level of progression -- Simon Dumont is notorious for constantly upping the level of his skiing and redefining the boundaries of the sport. Simon will be returning to the X-Games and Dew Tour for the 2008/ 2009 season, and filming the second half of his two-year documentary "Transitions." A true leader and pioneer in the making, Nike 6.0 is stoked to welcome Simon to the team.

"Watching Simon break the world record for highest quarter pipe air this season made us realize that he's willing to do whatever it takes to prove himself capable of anything. Simon has emerged as a true leader in the sport and there is really no telling what Simon will set his sights on next." -Riley Poor, Nike 6.0 Freeski Mentor
