SnoDice....


taken from TWS...
NO BOOTS, NO BOARD, SNODICE!
All you need are your boots, your board, and a set of SnoDice, and you’ll be off enjoying the mountain slopes with your buddies in no time. From method grabs to switch backside 900’s, from front boards to switch back 270 boardslides, SnoDice has every boarder covered. High fives, smiles, awesome times, and top-notch boarding action are included.
Salt Lake City, Utah - September 15, 2009 - At a time when double-corks are the norm, and riders must be able to do a 1080 in order to get a free sticker pack, the people at SnoDice have created a game everyone can enjoy. Inspired by the belief that snowboarding is too much fun to waste time “training” for the X-Games or worrying about what the “cool” new trick is, SnoDice aims to re-grow some of snowboarding’s lost roots.
From the first game played last March in Breckenridge with homemade cardboard dice, to the present perfected “rail” and “jump” versions, the game of SnoDice is a simple way to spice up a day of shredding. It has always been about experimenting and learning new tricks, taking a different approach to each and every day of shredding, and most importantly getting out in the snow covered hills and having fun with your buddies. And SnoDice wants to keep these ideals rolling.
Stevie Bell, Cam Pierce, Derek Dennison and friends out in Utah rollin’ the dice. Check the early season jib battle and the SnoDice in action.

a SnoDice afternoon from snodice on Vimeo.



SnoDice should be instock at the shop any day now. Both Jump and Jib versions will be available.

Gear check....

Arbor Draft

Arbor’s take on the rocker revolution - the new Draft is designed around The System, a fusion of interdependent technologies that support jib-specific performance. Make no mistake; rocker boards represent a new approach to how snowboards function. Rocker shapes require a total rethinking of long held ideas on technologies and how they interact. To that end, we offer The System.
Grip-Tech Sidecut: an unblended progressive tri-radial sidecut design that creates additional contact points directly under-foot for significantly improved control.
Street Rocker: a rocker profile based on a stretched parabolic arc that further improves control, while providing a more uniform running surface nose to tail.
Rocker Specific Flex:a rocker specific flex pattern designed to address how riders experience board flex when shredding a de-cambered design.
Inlaid Power Spine: a structural spine of wood that counters the effect of de-cambering to maintain pop, while not hindering the rocker benefit of easy spins, presses, and butters.
Robusto Tips: a wider, more blunt shape and flat kick design that meets the needs of a rocker nose and tail’s more specialized role as platforms for presses and butters.
True-Twin: a twin-tip shape that encourage riders to equalize their stance and more effectively activate the Grip-Tech contact points and Street Rocker design.
Mercy Edges: softer bronze edges that deliver a less catchy ride, while balancing the active edge performance created by Street Rocker and Grip Tech.
Sumo-Stance: an expanded 2x4 insert system that provides a much wider stance (Max: 25.20"/64cm) allowing riders to size down their boards for classic rocker performance.
All sizes in stock now along with the rest of the 2009/2010 Arbor lineup!

Union Bindings have arrived!


The Union Binding Company is dedicated to delivering on these goals. We are an independent brand founded on supplying snowboarders with the best bindings on the planet. Product has always come first, and we build it for snowboarders who thrash their gear and expect it to survive.

In our first year, Union created an elite binding that was totally bombproof. With a zero warranty-return rate, we knew we'd found our foundation for the future. During the following two years, we developed many new materials and design processes in the name of progression and improvement—implementing Injected Magnesium and Machined Coring™ to increase strength and reduce weight, as well as working exclusively with Dupont™ Zytel® ST, a high-quality material that leaves everything else in the dust.

Moving into year four, Union has taken another huge step forward. We're reinvesting in research and design—truly challenging ourselves to raise the bar and make the best-riding bindings that ever hit the snow. Our line has grown, our team has grown, and our presence has grown—but our brand foundation will always remain the same: To supply the best-fitting, highest-performing and most durable bindings in the business.


Hands down some of the best darn bindings I have ridden! Swing in and grab a pair before they are gone.
They are moving fast!!

Weekend Snowboard ALERT!

Yes, they have arrived!


WEEKEND SNOWBOARDS ANNOUNCES THEIR
EXISTENCE, PUTS MARK CARTER and HEIKKI SORSA ON THE TEAM,
CROWDS REJOICE AND EMBRACE IN THE STREETS
WORLDWIDE.
Here is what the dudes at Weekend have to say;
"After many rounds of board meetings and discussions with focus groups, we made a
decision. That decision was that we better look at some pie charts and graphs, and then
analyze that data and crunch some numbers to see what the best feature benefit
combination was to maximize sales.
Then, we made some prototypes and put them on snow and of course in the wind
tunnel. We heard all the big guys have wind tunnels now. Then we analyzed costs
some more, and then we did some more focus groups with key retailers and sales reps
and then we made a couple of rounds of changes to the second round of prototypes to
identify key demographic penetration.
Then we talked to key market influencers to determine their first impression retention of
the key selling points that the sales team would be coordinating during their
presentations. It was finally time to get things out to market….
Then we just scrapped that whole process and started a board company that reflects
what snowboarding is all about.
At Weekend, we believe your snowboard should be coveted, and not a commodity. All
of our boards are individually hand numbered and extremely limited edition. Once
they are gone they are gone, and that is just the way we like it.
For 2010, we have teamed up with legendary illustrator Steve Nazar, creator of the
iconic 1980’s Town and Country Surf Designs characters to illustrate the Lodge Series.
Each board is hand numbered, and only 150 of each size will be made.
All of our boards are handmade in the mountains of Austria by craftsmen (not factory
workers) who care about what you are riding, not by someone that has never even
seen snow in their life. What a concept that is, right?
Like any company worth their salt, we want to have a team that represents the true
meaning of the brand. So our first addition was Jackson Hole ripper Mark Carter. For
those in the know, Mark is a backcountry workhorse who lays it down whatever the
situation and we are damn proud to have him. Mark is filming for Absinthe and can be
found trolling the Jackson Backcountry on the Weekend Warrior™ snow machine daily
this winter putting together his part.
“I’m stoked to be involved with a brand that is run by snowboarders and has a positive
direction” adds Carter, “plus the Lodge is a freestyle machine, so that helps.”
Weekend Snowboards will be available this Fall at finer retailers of snowboards
worldwide."

Hurry on down and grab one before they become extinct!
Don't live close? Of course we can ship you one to your doorstep!
Give us a call 651.464.4150

Banshee bungees have arrived!

Urban Assaults NOW IN!
One 10ft Bungee + One Handle + One 30ft Lead Line
Because it breaks your heart to tear down the drop-in ramp you just finished while 5-0 stands there looking smug, that’s why. Now, no ramp needed: just cram the Urban Assault in your coat and flash your most wholesome Michael Cera grin when the establishment comes calling. Ten feet of braided, vulcanized rubber packs an instant, massive launch on any rail in the city.

The Urban Assault is ideal for skateboarding and snowboarding in urban settings where space is limited and massive speeds aren’t warranted.
