Another example of over-engineering a simple binding/board interface to add more slop to your snowboarding experience. The ShredLORDby Fusion Ride.
The fact that Fusion Ride’s founder claims this is the “world’s first snowboard suspension system” shows how little research they’ve actuallydone. Binding suspension and quick pivot “inventions” seem to pop up continually.

Yes, snowboarding was caught on film and video before JAH arrived on the scene, but few have captured all the feels on film more deeply than the Absinthe Films crew. If you know, you know.

OG pro snowboarders Tricia Byrnes and Jennifer Sherowski are going deep into the history of snowboarding with their new podcast Going Off.
As the early days of snowboarding begin to slide into the long past, Going Off documents its oral history. We trace back what made it so strange and explosive, why it changed all those lives and still bonds people for life. From the history of snowboard fashion to how halfpipes were born, from the birth of jibbing to pivotal movies, music and magazines, each episode drops in on a new topic.
