Hydrolife Magazine February/March 2017 (USA Edition)
It is amazing how an event from almost 20 years ago can remain fresh in the mind. It certainly doesn’t seem that long ago that Canadian Ross Rebagliati rocketed down Nagano’s Olympic giant slalom snowboard course, ripping through the finish line to claim the first-ever Olympic men’s snowboarding gold medal despite starting the final run in eighth position. Since then, Rebagliati has become a cultural phenomenon and advocate of marijuana use, and it is no coincidence that since that foggy day on Mount Yakebitai near Nagano, how we perceive the use of marijuana in society has changed for the better. Hydrolife recently caught up with Rebagliati to talk about Nagano, his thoughts on marijuana, and the launch of Ross’ Gold.

NO NETS<br />
BRIGHT LIGHT<br />
Brooklyn-based band No<br />
Nets is proving that less is<br />
more with its newest release,<br />
Bright Light. The strippeddown,<br />
post-grunge rock<br />
transports you back in time<br />
when you and your friends<br />
bared your souls, jamming<br />
late into the night in damp,<br />
smoke-filled garages.<br />

TERRAFORM<br />
Terraform is the sixth fulllength<br />
album by legendary<br />
Canadian indie rocker Sam<br />
Roberts. His music is deeply<br />
personal and distinctly<br />
his own. Each time I listen<br />
to Terraform, I discover<br />
something new that just<br />
makes me love it even more.<br />
I’m going to put it on again<br />
and see what I can find.<br />

SHARON JONES<br />
& THE DAP KINGS<br />
MISS SHARON JONES<br />
Sharon Jones recently passed<br />
away after a prolonged battle<br />
with cancer. I was lucky<br />
enough to meet her once after<br />
a show. She signed my record,<br />
gave me a hug and a kiss, and<br />
sent me on my way. I’ll never<br />
forget the energy she brought<br />
to her live performances.<br />
Miss Sharon Jones tells her<br />
story the way she would have<br />
wanted it told.<br />
