Team Update - Team S.E.X.

Team Shred Extra Xtreme is comprised of a few unique Wachusett locals including Brandon Honeycutt, Joel Quinnones, Will Mayo, and Jay Giannunzio. They are also fortunate enough to have the wildly experienced cinematographer from VT Ian Post shooting them day-to-day. These boys just plain love to snowboard. I grew up riding with most of this crew and literally every day is a new, fun, and hilarious experience with them. All five of them never cease to amaze me. I was fortunate enough to sit down with three of them and get their views, life stories, and whatever other stupid things they could say.

The boys of Team S.E.X. get personal in front of the fireplace.

-Team S.E.X. parties with Team Masshole

Our eyes instantly lock from across the room; Brandon Honeycutt is my first victim.

So Brandon, what first attracted you to this contest?

BH: Well Facebook definitely had a big influence on me. I then saw that you were involved and was instantly attracted physically and emotionally.

Oh...how sweet of you...Now you being a Wawa local, which mountain are you looking forward to most and why?

BH: Crotched because I'm a broke college student and I get better gas mileage on the back roads to Francestown, NH haha.

Oh the college life must be tough...

BH: Yeah, I don't get much time (gulps his beer)...but I'm done January 2 so it'll give me more time to focus on this project.

Bobby Orcini of Team Masshole interrupts - Team S.E.X. and Team Masshole party like it's 1999!

So what's your beverage of choice tonight?

BH: Bud Light and whatever you're drinking hahahaha.(Hold ups my Magic Hat)

Brandon and I get sidetracked discussing sushi-dating tips.

Wait, so you're still underage right?

BH: Yes.

So Will I understand you're a Maine transplant, how'd that come about?

WM: Well I'm going to school at WPI in Worcester and having a good time riding Wachusett every night.

Oh so you're one of those engi-nerd type guys right is that how it goes?

WM: Haha right I like math.

Finish the equation, Y = mX + what?

WM: Umm...I'll have to get back to you on that one.

So I understand you helped Snow Grind build the competition booter at Wachusett, how'd that go?

WM: Yeah I've been working with Josh for a few years helping him out at a bunch of resorts building stuff. We stayed up a good portion of the night and build a super progressive jump that wasn't intimidating. He's definitely the best cat driver in New England and a good friend.

Nice. So your love of physics and math must have really helped you with this right?

WM: Yesss definitely haha. I'm always thinking about Newton's Laws of Gravity.

So for Sofa King which mountain are you looking most forward to?

WM: Definitely Mount Snow over in Vermont. They're killing it this year with the Carinthia parks.

What's your role in Team S.E.X.?

WM: I'm the shy and cute one. It works better that way because I can't open my mouth and say something stupid, which tends to work with all the ladies haha.

Nice, well good luck with the rest of the boy band.

WM: Absolute, keep an eye out for the Team S.E.X. photo calendar dropping in late spring.

I dream about it every night.


On the chairlift with Jay Gianunzio.
Sunday January 4, 2009 4:31pm

So Jay you like snowboarding?

JG: Yeah I thought about it, decided that I like it. So I do. What about you?

I've been known to push the snow around a little bit. It's that freestyle trickery stff that's populat these days. So of all the mountains in Sofa King which are you looking forward to most?

JG: Ohh that's a tough one. Pretty much Wachusett, should be fun.

But Jay, you have a season pass there.

JG: Yes I know that's why haha.

Umm...so what's your role in Team S.E.X.?

JG: The receiver. Well, and the giver too I guess. You'll just have to wait and see at the video premiere. You can count on that.

Night vision and such?

JG: Dude, I invented night vision. Should be fun though.

So what first attracted you to this contest?

JG: Well Brandon started telling me about it and I started to feel a little tingle inside of me. Then I learned that you were involved and the tingle grew...plus free tickets are cool. I'm really looking forward to getting some legit footage and photos. It's been a few years since we've really put a project together so this is a great way to get back in the groove of things. Road trips with ese guys always turn out to be an adventure.

That's cool. So which do you get more female stalkers on, Facebook or Myspace?

JG: Hey, you weren't supposed to tell anyone about those...
