Snowboarding

The 2013 winter is officially a wrap, an ending to another great season with a giant gathering of team, media and management at Squaw Valley Resort in Lake Tahoe, California. This final shoot of the year was called Peace Park, considered Part II of last year's Peace Pipe (which you can check out in Burton Snowboard's highly acclaimed movie 13). Thanks to the talented folks at Snow Park Technology and the Squaw Valley Park Crew, they managed to create a perfectly crafted halfpipe X snowboard park exactly as it was drawn up on paper. The riders enjoyed a variety of jumps, transitions and jibs, which produced some amazing and fun riding. I can't wait to see the footage in the movie! Look for this movie release in fall of 2013...more details will follow once Burton announces the premier plans...thanks for checking in!

CAPiTA Snowboards has bought the bankrupt Elan Snowboard factory and re-opened...

Earlier this year long time snowboard manufacturer Elan Snowboards declared bankruptcy. This came as a bit of a shocker to people as it has long established roots in the snowboard industry and was a manufacturer of a lot of the top tier brands. With its doors shuttering this caused a bit of a scramble for brands to find new facilities before production season began. Photo borrowed from Transworld Business Transworld Business wrote a follow up article to the aftermath of the bankruptcy. In that article it said, “Capita is also finalizing its future production and Founder Blue Montgomery says that due to all of the moving pieces, his team is not commenting at the moment on their future production plans as the details are buttoned up.” Talking with various industry insiders no one knew what this meant and felt that it signaled something big within the C3 organization. Whether that would be good or bad was left up to speculation. Late last week an industry source told us that Capita was leasing out the Elan factory with former CEO Michael Kollmann. Earlier today a second source showed us a press release from Capita talking about the formation of C4 and the acquisition of the Elan factory. We currently do not have access to this release but as that changes we will be updating this article. So what does this mean for the snowboard industry? Is Capita and it’s umbrella of companies poised to take over the global snowboard scene? It is interesting times that is for sure. The post C4 World Domination Company appeared first on .
