No Powder? No Problem for Parkin Costain

Last season sucked. You know it. I know it. We all know it.

Winter never really showed up, and spring temperatures seemed to be the norm no matter how high we trekked or how far North we traveled.

That didn’t seem to phase Parkin Costain too much.

“With a winter that didn’t quite go to plan, Parkin adopted the mindset that it ain’t over ’til it’s over,” reads a description for CORESHOT, Costain’s new video project that was released on November 12, 2026. “Traveling to Cooke City in late May and early June, Parkin and filmer Olin Wimberg set out on a mission to create something memorable, no matter the conditions.”

Create something memorable they did.

CORESHOT, with its short but sweet runtime of less than five minutes, is one of the best edits we’ve seen in recent memory. Costain goes all out to make lemonade out of the poor snow conditions, and the result is one of the season’s can’t-miss flicks.

Ghost riding the sled, skiing rocks like he’s Candide, and airing into sh*t f*ck snow… what more could you ask for from a five-minute edit filmed during one of the worst seasons in recent memory?

And the icing on the cake? Costain edited the video himself. It’s not his first time editing either. Costain edited last year’s project, FLIPBOOK, which has over 1 million views in the 11 months it’s been live on SCOTT Sports’ YouTube channel.

SCOTT recently nixed its pro skiing team and stopped making skis entirely, but Costain landed on his feet with Nordica and a trusty pair of Unleashed 106s.

After testing the Nordica Unleashed 106 and 120 at POWDER Week 2026, we’re confident that Costain will gel well with the new, burly twigs, and CORESHOT is proof.

Here’s hoping we get another surprise midseason edit from Costain like we did last year. CORESHOT was perfect, but it left me wanting more!
