It wasn’t a typical 4th of July in Silverton, but what about 2020 has been?

Fortunately the draw of Silverton is the adventure of wild spaces and high mountain passes. It’s a great time to get out in nature and clear you mind for time.

This season may have ended prematurely due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but now is a great time to support a local small business and save on gear for next season with a new board from our friends down the road at Venture Snowboards!

Used demos from this winter's demo tour are now listed for sale on our website. All new boards are also on sale. We have mixed feelings about putting boards under people's feet right now, but we do still need to pay the bills. We encourage splitboarding newbies to stay out of the mountains until you are able to take an avalanche safety course, and ask experienced backcountry riders to dial it back. Now is not the time to get hurt.

We can't guarantee when boards will ship, for two reasons:

1) Colorado is under stay at home order and we are fairly certain that snowboards are not considered essential.

2) We are switching focus to making protective face shields for health workers and others on the front lines, and shipping snowboard orders will be secondary to that effort.

With that said, money talks. If you know what you want, go ahead and order it and we will get it to you as soon as we can. Thanks for your support, and stay safe.
