Thursday Theatre :: CR Johnson and Shaun White Silverton

Today is a very somber day in the skiing community. Poor Boyz Productions skier CR Johnson passed away last night after complications from a fall in Squaw.

"According to reports, CR, who was wearing a helmet at the time, was skiing off a cliff on Light Towers and caught his edge on some exposed rocks in the take off, causing him to tumble and hit his head and neck on rocks in the landing. Ski patrol and medical staff arrived at the scene almost immediately and attempted to revive him, but despite their best efforts, CR left us much too soon."

Rest in peace CR. You will be missed.


Silverton, CO. Just in case you don't know, Boulder Freeride is going to Silverton this April! Just to hype it a little bit, I think you should check out this video of Shaun Whites personal halfpipe in Silverton, CO!
