Jamie Lynn on Blackcomb’s Hortsman Glacier in 1994

There are very few people I’ve ever met that command the kind of attention that Jamie Lynn does. He does it quietly, effortlessly, and without question.

If you were on Blackcomb’s Horstman Glacier in the early 90s, either at the Camp of Champions or at Craig’s camp, this will likely take you right back. There were moments when the best snowboarders in the world would just THROW DOWN in these spontaneous sessions that would erupt on a piece of terrain or a newly built feature. At that point, the cameras would come out and people would stop what they were doing to watch.

Jamie was at his best in 1994, and all eyes were definitely on him when he started spinning these tail grab 5s. The style is imprinted on our brains, instantly identifiable. In the background are some faces that are familiar to members of the snowboard media.

For me, this is more than a photo, it’s a sense memory that transports me.
