Maxx von Marbod has curated a collection of classic snowboards for a gallery showing at Evo in Seattle this Friday night (October 21, 2011).
The show, being held in conduction with retailer Evo’s 10th Anniversary Celebration, will feature snowboards from: Liberace Technologies, Gnu Slope Tools, Ride Snowboards, K2 Snowboarding, Capita Super Corporation, and Burton.
You’ll see:
– An example of each of Craig Kelly’s pro models starting with the first Mystery Air (rumored to be making a comeback…)
– Weird creations from Mervin’s mad scientists
– Kidwell, Cummins, Lamar, Ranquet and Palmer’s finest offerrings
– Unlikely Pro models, 1st runs, and One-off’s from the Capita Closet
– Boards of “questionable Legality” from Ride’s archives… along with other gems you wish you still had!
He’s the newest member of the Ashbury Am Team and his name is Mike Ravelson. He snowboards a little like this. . . For more check out High Cascade’s Hungry and/or Capita’s Defenders of Awesome.
It was the snowboard party event of the fall season Friday night (October 14, 2011) at Vestal HQ in Costa Mesa, California and now the entire Peter Line and Eddie Wall film The Peddie Files film is live on the Internet for everyone’s viewing pleasure. Watching it reminded us how rad snowboard movies were before music and video licensing took everything corporate. Check it.
Forum Snowboards is happy to announce the exclusive Peter Line softgoods collection called The Peter Line featuring a fisherman-style beaning, a kitty titty t-shirt, and a jacket (surprisingly not called a “jack-it”).
“My line of clothes was pretty much inspired by punk rock, boobs and kittens. It’s easy to see this in the PL jacket, but you probably don’t know that the beanie I designed doubles as boob warmers and can be used as an old fashion slingshot for kittens, a handheld cat-a-pult if you will.”

Looks like Denver area shreds can finally get their slide on. Side note: Wolf Creek killed them all in the annual “first to open” competition by getting their lifts running last Saturday.
Forgotten how to wax your helmet board? Julia has all the tips you need to make even the most busted up board slide alike silk. That is if you remember to scrape it, scrape it real good. Oh the pandering we do for traffic.
