Description:
This was a personal project that I worked on for 3+ years daily, but have since shut it down as the content updates were just too time consuming as a one man operation.
At it's height it had nearly daily extreme sports news posts from quick news flashes to full magazine style articles with image galleries and video. It had an active photo gallery, to which I posted alot of my own personal work as well as more than a half dozen pre-You tube style videos of mountain bikers and skiers.
Later, I adjusted the site to include various 3rd Party video sites embedded video to keep users coming back on a daily basis.
It was started over the summer of 2003 and continued thru early 2007.
UPDATE : Spring'09:
I have started to play around with this again, toying with getting back into regular updates again but with video only...we'll see :)
