Natural Ripper: Oakley’s Jake Blauvelt Opens Up in ESPN Snowboarding Interview
Oakley’s Lil’ John is famous for his much-repeated quote: “Shots, shots, shots!” O Snowboard team star Jake Blauvelt disagrees.
“Screw the shots, man,” says Jake during an ESPN interview, referring to snowboarders who place importance on the baddest camera shots taken of the biggest tricks. “I hate it when people are like: ‘We gotta’ go out and get shots…we got the sickest shots today.’ If we had a good time today, we’re probably gonna’ have good shots. But it should always be about the vibe of the day.”
Great point. Watch as Jake shares more of his mellow personality, his roots in Vermont’s woods and how his upbringing shaped him into the pro snowboarder that he is today.
