Pat Milbery on hill during Session 7
Windells coach, Pat Milbery was just added to the Xtreme Sports Insurance Team. Professional snowboarders (and skiers, of course) risk their bodies and often lives on a daily basis while competing at contests, filming video parts and pushing the boundaries of riding. Unlike in more traditional jobs, pro riders don’t generally get insurance from the companies they ride for, and it’s often difficult and expensive to become insured. Many young riders, even those who are shredding for fun, don’t have health insurance, which puts them in difficult positions if and when they become injured on the hill. XSI is working to change that and help action sports athletes out. Pat Milbery is stoked to be working with the new company.
Here’s a snippet of what Pat had to say about his new sponsorship:
“I am super excited about this new relationship with XSI! I am an insurance advocate, because it’s a necessity. I need and respect my brain, therefore I need a healthy body to do what I love to do on a daily basis.”
Check out all the info at XSI’s website here.

Windells coaches Pat Milbery and Austin Hironaka shot all winter to get their parts dialed in Think Thank’s 2010 film, Cool Story. Pat and Austin will be premiering their hardwork in BOB at Windells this Sunday, July 19th after the Bonfire Pipe 2 Pipe and SNOWBOARDER MAGAZINE’s America’s Next Top Pro Model. Check out the teaser!
Pat Milbery, the Skull Candy crew and the Arbor crew of Benny Henrick, Zack Hale, Moss Halladay and Joe Bosler were at Windells last session rippin’ up the park and hanging out on campus. They did a bunch of really funny contests for campers to win Skull Candy and Arbor products. Check out www.so-gnar.com for tons of video and photos. This is one of our favorites from the week: the Mustard Challenge.
Inspired by all of the Digger Dogs that campers and coaches were mowing down on, Pat and Joe held an impromptu mustard-eating contest on hill last week. Surprisingly, tons of campers were down to try to swallow as much mustard as they could in order to win free gear….
So A LOT has gone down over the last few days and all of it has been captured by the AMAZING videographers here at camp. Check out their work at these places. Whatever you feel like, pro interviews, contest coverage, crashes and behind the scenes, it’s all here.

Trevor Jacobs, Brock Waring, Ross Baker, Mark Reining and Dylan Bidez collaborated on a feature that puts everything they like to ride all in one spot. Coach Pat Milbery was on site helping make everything happen and was nice enough to shoot some photos of the guys bringing their idea to fruition.
