Ravinos

Travel back to Vail, Colorado in the early 1970s, where a bunch of skiers from the Midwest who called themselves the Ravinos sparked a revolution in extreme skiing. Identified by the iconic flaming skull insignia patches on their cutoff denim jackets, the rowdy Ravinos were eventually shut down by the authorities. After a 30-year hiatus, a new generation of snowboarders resurrected the club and its infamous St. Patty’s Day induction ceremony where doing a backflip down the Wailer gap gets you “patched in.” Ravinos showcases the best of ski town culture: positive energy, friendships and stoke.
