TGR'S "VALHALLA" RATED BEST KAYAK FILM BY PADDLER MAGAZINE READERS
Paddler Magazine, Associate Editor- February 4, 2004 When we made the Kayak reader survey (due out in Spring '04), which attempted via an Internet poll to identify the best of the best in whitewater culture, we knew we had to include a film category. We know that when you're off the water, you still want that whitewater rush. Since it doesn't come in a bottle, you take it visually via videotape or DVD. Obviously, we had all seen Valhalla and knew it would be up there among the favorites, but Internet surveys can be skewed by lonely, middle-aged men looking for midnight mischief. In the end, our readers overwhelmingly chose Valhalla as their favorite kayak movie of all time. We can't give out an Oscar, but we can tell you it's pretty sweet.

TGR'S JEREMY JONES VOTED BEST BIG MOUNTAIN RIDER BY SNOWBOARDER MAGAZINE
Snowboarder March 2004- "...While his peers scour the lower 48 looking for triple kinks and secret backcountry zones, Jeremy waits out storms and scopes lines in places like Haines, Alaska. When it comes time to film there is no room for error as thousands of dollars in travel and heli costs are on the line. More often than not, there is no second take and it is in this make-it-or-break-it, do-or-die world where Jeremy Jones rules supreme. With countless first descents under his belt, Jeremy is truly in a field all of his own." "He's just 10 times gnarlier than anyone else. There's no competition for him, it seems like," said David Benedek, voted Number one Rider of the Year.
