I watched The Playground last night for the second time, and was impressed for the second time. I really like it. The Playground is a UK film produced by the Hungerpain crew – and it’s free with this month’s WhiteLines magazine! I think they have irrefutably answered the question, is snowboarding a sport? Hell yeah it is!

Recently, I also managed to get a copy of the film Hungerpain (Hungerpain’s movie from the season before The Playground) – which was equally impressive. Any non-British people out there who are wondering what UK snowboarding is like would do well to get hold of one of these movies. The guys at Hungerpain seem really sorted, so if you’re looking for a copy and you can’t find one, I’m sure that if you contacted them they’d point you in the right direction.

All I need now is Standing Sideways…
