...how will you handle more content?
Love it. Way cool! Totally engaging. Totally unique. Not sure you plan on CSS all the opaques on this site though ;P

Also curious how you plan on attacking a page with a lot of content (the one-pager).

Good job.

I would like a bigger logo/header text
Fantastic first impression made me want to duck.

colors are perfect balance is way above average and all in all it makes me want to see more.

Assuming for the moment scuffed up text works for the header/logo i cant really see it to make up my mind. Great job very well done.

Logo
Awesome! i love what you did with the snowboarder. the only thing i would change would be the grunge on the logo, i think it would look a bit more crisp.

Pink type, slightly hard to read
This design is really top notch, I like it a lot. The only critique I have is the pink text, it's a little harsh. Good work here, keep it up!

more energy
I would try and put some things off balance to bring more energy to the composition, right now the visual lines are very vertical/horizontal (board / snowboarder body for example)

Maybe improve the windows
I really like. Maybe I avoid using the pink and translucent window separate from snowboarders. As the square of the share

Keep it energised.
Would be very interested to see this on a working page, but it's pretty cool.

Whilst I like the swirls around the boarder, I don't get the arrow coming out from the board? I'd also make them more subtle - to me it seems a little like you've learned a new technique and wanted to show it off. It's wicked don't get me wrong, but I think it would work better if it was more subtle.

Is the use of pink in there for the females so your not accused of being sexist? It's a good effort but I don't think it works. Maybe try orange? I find it works better off blue than pink.

I also agree with the 3rd comment - "should be even wilder", first look of the site gets your really energised and excited, but once your eyes hit the content everything seems a bit dull.

Keep the enthusiasm going in all aspects of the design.

Great work though, I wouldn't say you're far off.
