Boznuts In High Times
Are we surprised Nate Bozung is speaking out about the relationship between snowboarders and marijuana? No… not really. Here’s an excerpt from the February 2008 issue of High Times:
High Times: How big is pot in snowboarding?
Bozung: You could put it in the same word; you could mix it together. Everyone does it. It’s a whole lifestyle thing: surfing, skating, snowboarding—snowboarding especially. Everyone’s up in the mountains, too. You know, whatever—getting weird in the mountains. Ninety-nine percent of snowboarders are baked all the time. But it’s weird, too, ’cuz in snowboarding, you have the whole soul thing, the fuckin’ dudes who just do it, and then you have all the new-era kids who are like the full jocks—like they fuckin’ train and do all that stuff. So there’s a mix, but it’s still so heavy in snowboarding. I don’t think I took a run in the last eight years without smoking a joint, anywhere in the whole world. It’s everywhere. It’s not my fault.

But first answer this: Do agree with Boznuts, that “Ninety-nine percent of snowboarders are baked all the time“?
Comments
I’d say 99% of snowboarders are baked maybe 50% of the time.
i dont even smoke
When you’re baked 99% of the time, everyone seems baked all the time.
nice
this is old news. thanks for reporting on something that happened a year and 1/2 ago. now put your bong down and catch up.
yeah bozwreck telling the truth
Okay, so maybe I’m not as up on my High Times as I could be. My bad. But a year and 1/2 ago? Um, this story ran in the February 2008 issue. And you’re saying I need to put MY bong down? Anyway, the publish date is not the issue here — he could have said this three, four, ten years ago, and it would still hold its relevance today, no? Though, granted… Boznuts is certainly on the extreme end, if it’s true as he claims it is, that he hasn’t taken a run — a single run — anywhere in the world in the last eight years without smoking a joint? Seriously?! EVERY SINGLE RUN?
it may have just come out in the feb. issue but the story was all over the internet 1year 1/2 ago. just saying, don’t get offended.
his statements in the interview are extremely stupid and hold no ground. i know so many that don’t get baked. i also think that naming other riders that puff was a bad move by him. i guess he has to justify why he does it or just trying to fit in
somewhere. shows where his state of mind is.
this comment thing sucks ass. why is there a limit to how many characters you can input? stupid.
i bet snowboaridng isn’t even fun for boznuts unless hes baked, sucks to be him, hes kind of a joke. just my personall opinion.
the interview is funny as hell but he is pretty full of shit. that is obvious enough.
and ps i don’t smoke either. well i have but it’s not a regular habit.
What a fucking joke. Boznuts? Sick… Who the piss takes advice from a guy named Boznuts? Hasn’t produced a good shot since his two pieces in lovehate with Matty Ryan. Burn out that fell down the pisser and has nothing to offer the snowboard industry
I can’t stand this guy. Never have. He’s a disgrace to snowboarding.
I don’t know if you could call him a “disgrace to snowboarding.” Just because he’s a weed-smoking boozer, does that make him a horrible person? What’s wrong with just living your life? He didn’t ask to be a role model for anybody.
And remember the history of sport. We were all punks back then! Just because the sport is commercialized and mainstream now doesn’t mean that all of us have to be clean cut Jesus loving Kelly Clarks.
All you jock snowboarders need to know that because of people like Boznutz and other shreders that act like him it has allowed snowboarding to get where it is at today, if they dont want to change and be “pro” contest jock good for them, keep it real
all you sipping on haterade need to chill out and smoke a lil bit. snowboarding was started by a bunch of redneck metalheads who loved their weed and look where they took it…
there is room for everyone, and if all these toners are in the trees puffing tough, then all you jocks can get more speed laps down the middle of the groomers without a bunch of wookies in your way.
puff puff ride. nothin’ better than enjoying the pow, good scenery, and a nice break on the lift(or in the trees) to cap it all off. ’nuff said.
Sixty percent of the time, weed works all the time
yeah for Bozung!
hey i live in utah and i ride brighton,snowbird,canyons. every time i go i see people smoking or hear someone say lets go out in the trees and blaze this joint i rolled. And by god if i dont do the same thing. and how many stoners ive met in trees.
Bozung is clown. He doesn’t speak for all of us. I’d like to see that punk shred Silverton or Ak on weed. And the sooner he tries the better for all of us. Perhaps he wouldn’t make it back alive! You have never truly ridden until you ride sober.
Great work Nate, smoke em’ if you got em!!
I was stoked when I opened the mailbox to this interview.
Boz nuts is a fucking idiot!!!!
gettttt high!!!!
i agree with boznuts!!!
