Monday Mix - July 19, 2021

We're a little late with this one today, but depending on where you on in the world it is still technically Monday, which means we can still technically call this a Monday Mix. Settle in and enjoy a sampling of the best from around the world of shred over the past seven days, from the lofty hights of Mt. Hood to the drainage ditches of Seefeld - the world's best riders/posters did not disappoint this week, and we've brought together a bunch of our faves here for your scrolling pleasure.

First up, let's check in on those ditches we were talking about, as Monday's favourite wild child Nicolas Huber earns himself his third (or fourth?) first-hit Mix post of this off-season with this one from Seefeld...

Never stop being you, Nicky.

Truth be told, there's about 50 various posts we'd like to highlight today, which means we're probably going to keep the words to a minimum and just let the action do the talking so we can get through as much as possible. One trick that always speaks for itself is a good old method air, and Mark McMorris has one of the best in the business. Here he is cranking one out a perfect one in the pipe at Mt. Hood...

Action at Hood has been a big part of the fuel that keeps the Monday Mix fire burning over the past few weeks, but it's looking like the majority of the talent that has been on the scene there in Oregon has packed up and headed out in the last couple of days. In honour of the good times that we've seen, here's a little Mt. Hood wrap-up super-hits section before we move on.

First up, Luke Winkelemann, crushing it on the pipes and in the pipe (and on a couple jumps for good measure)...

Next up, the woman known as Q, as Queralt Castellet used her last day up on the volcano to stomp a brand new one...

Liam Tourki, riding away clean on a little newness of his own...

Jason Wolle showing gettin' back up and stomping one after taking a pretty good hipcheck on the lip...

Jack Coyne with the celebratory handplant while JJ Thomas looks to give any assistance needed...

M&M aka Maddie Mastro, putting a little funk on this two-hitter...

Scotty James, stomping this front 12 cleaner than most of us can ride out of a heelside turn...

Dusty bein' Dusty...

And, finally, Torgeir Bergrem, summing it all up. Until next time, Mt. Hood...

Over to Moelltaler now, where Leon Guetl and his homie Moritz Amsuess didn't let a mixed bag of weather in Austria slow them down one bit. There's just nothin' like mobbing around with your friends in the slush...

Jonas Junker is on the scene in Crans Montana and it's looking like he's got his own private park over there. It's bluebird, where the heck is everybody else??

Just a quick hop away in Zermatt, Pat Burgener was playing guitar, riding, meeting new friends, and just generally having the "best day of (his) freaking life" - which must mean it was one incredible day, because Pat ALWAYS seems to be having a the best day of his life...

Ok, we've shared a bunch of posts of riders sending it to the moon already here, but have you heard about Kaitlyn Farrington's latest project? No? Well she is LITERALLY TRYING TO GO TO THE MOON...

We'll take this opportunity to switch gears a bit and check in on what some of our alpine friends have been up to lately, beginning with Maurizio Bormolini and his impressive summer training routine, including pumptracks and backflips...

Andi Prommegger is out there hitting podiums even in July, coming in first with his team in the relay competition at the Trumer Triathlon in Salzburg...

Adrenline junkie Benny Karl is making his non-stop lifestyle a family affair, takig his daughter out for a rip around Lake Garda...

Snowboard Germany celebrated the birthday of reigning national champion Yannik Angenend with a throwback to him ripping a few picture perfect turns...

Speaking of throwback, Ingemar Waldner posted this one over the weeknd, remembering the days of "no helmets, no plates, and classic pants..."

And, finally, one more from the Polish team, as Michal Nowaczyk and Oskar Kwiatkowski are out there sweatin' in the sun with their eyes on the colder times to come...

We're gonna finish things off now, but before we go we've got one more for you, as Cheryl Mass and Sarka Pancochova teamed up for this method-over-slush-slash photo-op that has more stoke-per-pixel than anything else we saw on the interwebs the the past week...

Thanks for following along and enjoy the rest of your week, everybody!
