Team Rider: Steve ‘NOSEY’ Parsons

Stephen Parsons, better known as ‘Nosey’, is probably one of the most energetic and upbeat people you may ever meet. Even when seriously hung over, this guy still has a smile a mile wide. In fact, for the mere mortal of us, it can be a bit frustrating to deal with someone who is just seriously high on life all the time. Come down once in a while dude!

Nosey is Hotham new school, and while he rocks the new school vibe with the latest colour trends and threads, he is also one of the most approachable guys with a friendly word for everyone, and is someone who is happy to have a beer with … well, just about anyone!

Nosey is hailing from Avalon, NSW, Nosey has been riding for nine years, spending the last four as a Hotham local. Tall and lean, you can’t miss this guy, who although lanky looking has loads of style that makes him hard to miss on the hill. A self-confessed ‘fat guy in a skinny body’ if he’s not eating meat pies or drinking beer, he’s definitely out on the snow!

How many years have you been boarding?
my first full season was in 05

What your style eg. jibber, pipe, freeriding and park riding? I love freeridding when theres fresh snow but otherwise its all about lapping the park with a fun crew and learning new tricks.

Is there anything that scares you about snowboarding?
the fact that i have to stop at some point!

Triff’s shredication started 7 yrs ago riding Mt Selwyn family ski resort on a school trip as a grom . He is now 23 yrs old and is one of the local guns and a stand out rider not to mention a super tech jibber but smooth with a loose style.

Originally from Wagga Wagga NSW he now live’s in sydney working towards the next shred trip o.s for a few months in the summer before heading back to good old Buller. Loves the cali sunshine riding sierra nevada range from bear valley to tahoe. He holds it down with the known riders in the off-season rail jams, busts his ass working in a ski hire shop and every chance he gets he’s shredding the slopes with a steezy posse.

Triff has a long skate history which shows in his riding, rails, urban jibs and jumps. Now on his fifth season at Buller you’ll see him rockin around the slopes with super baggy gear and a smile on his face. A very positive progressive snowboarder and FYVE are stoked to have him on the team..

fYVE TEAM Rider: Camo ( The Rasta Steeze Machine )

Meet Cameron Dowling…

So Camo, what ever got you into Snowboarding?

I went on a family trip to Adelaide in 2001 and came across an indoor snow run called Mt Theberton, which no longer exists. It was one slope around 60 metres long but that was all I needed and from then on I was hooked.

Yeah rad, so where’d you go from there?

Well from there I finished school…. just, then headed up to Buller for a TAFE course in 05 which meant I was there all year round an doing seasons became a lot easier

So this was your first real taste of snowboarding I’m guessing, moving up from the great Mt Theberton. How’d you find yourself to be such a park junkie?

I guess skating when I was younger had a lot to do with me riding so much park but the main reason would have to be Australian weather conditions (Mt Buller especially). Even on the days that were windy, overcast or raining, my mates and I would still be out there hiking a down bar for hours.

So you’ve been doing seasons for a while, how do you keep yourself living this lifestyle?

When I’m not at the snow I’m in Melbourne working and saving as much as I can, then up at Buller I’d work in various kitchens dishying which gives me plenty of ride time

Now for some rapid fire questions

First board…Burton Freestyle (161)

Favourite board owned… GOOD VS EVIL (155) love your work Clive

Favourite mountain you’ve ridden for park… Northstar at Tahoe
