Join us for a global day of snowboarding to celebrate the legacy of Burton Snowboards founder Jake Burton Carpenter.

In honor of Jake, Bear Mt and 12 other resorts are offering free lift passes for March 13, 2020. REGISTER HERE with the resort of your choice, or just get out and ride. Ride to remember, and ride because snowboarding is what brings us together.

Jake’s vision was to bring snowboarding to all. His dream, his perseverance and his generosity were his gift to the world. As an industry, and as a community we come together for this day to remember, reflect and ride. Together we open our doors and open our hearts to carry Jake’s spirit forward; to share our love of the mountains and the joy of a perfect turn. Because snowboarding makes us happy. Snowboarding makes us hopeful. Snowboarding makes us free.

More wave pool news, the already announced DSRT Surf Wave Pool is going to have some competition. A new one from WSL/Kelly Slater is now being planned. Probably will cost like $10,000+ a session, so if you got the moola, here's the news that just came out about it:

Kelly Slater is planning to build the world's largest man-made wave in the desert.

Plans for Coral Mountain, announced on Tuesday, feature the largest rideable open-barrel human-made wave in the world with technology from Kelly Slater Wave Company, a division of the World Surf League.

The 11-time world champion surfer is teaming with private real estate investment and development firm Meriwether Companies and Big Sky Wave Developments, founded by Michael B. Schwab, son of brokerage pioneer Charles Schwab.

Construction is expected to begin in early 2021 with the opening slated sometime in 2022, pending design and amended approval. The land was previously approved for 750 homes and an 18-hole golf course. The new proposal maintains the same density and will require less water than the previously approved golf course.

“We chose to do this project because it allows us to further build on our technology and also because one of our founding partners, Michael Schwab, is heading up the group running the project," Slater said in a statement.

"We’re excited to make another KSWaveCo design and I’m personally excited to create a new wave that will be a stand alone design that nowhere else in the world has. This can become the blueprint for new developments around waves and surf parks going forward and is in line with some of my original ideas from when we started this project. I can’t wait to get underway.”

The wave basin will be part of a 400-acre site in La Quinta, California, set at the base of Coral Mountain. The master-planned community in the Coachella Valley will include a full-service resort, residential homes, a private club, multiple dining venues and adventure sport offerings.

The $200 million complex will have a 150-room hotel and up to 600 homes in the $1 million to $5 million range. Access to amenities will be exclusively available to homeowners, hotel guests, members and their guests. Dining will be open to the public through reservations.

The centerpiece of the complex will be the 18 million-gallon wave basin that has room for roughly 25 surfers — about five on the main wave, 10 each on the smaller waves at the ends of the basin. It will feature waves for all levels of ability and preference.

“I originally invested with Kelly in 2013 for my own personal surfing progression,” Michael Schwab, said. “I had no idea the impact it would have on my life, and I realized immediately that I had to share this opportunity."


Does anyone still shop at Pac Sun anymore? Well, if you do, here's the press release they sent out about their new "Landmark" store in Downtown LA:

In a first-of-its-kind retail move, PacSun announces the opening of bicoastal landmark stores in Los Angeles and New York City. Each retail space will channel the energy, history, and native talent of its locale, while working together to amplify PacSun’s core values of a lifestyle brand, curating relevant brands and style from youth culture.

“While the evolving retail environment dictates many brands to reduce the number of their physical locations, it is equally as important for PacSun to invest in new physical spaces to give our customers the experiences that they want from the brand,” says PacSun President Alfred Chang.

The recently opened LA store has 5,000 square feet of space, referencing Downtown LA’s ongoing renaissance. New York’s 8,000 square foot boutique will be located in an historic Soho storefront, slated to open on March 2.

“Soho NY and Downtown LA are epicenters of fashion and art,” says Chief Merchandising Officer Brie Olson. “We want to honor each city’s energy by bringing the best of PacSun’s design, exclusive offerings, and creative experiences straight to the source.”

Besides selling exclusive PacSun collaborations – including upcoming lines with Playboy and Fear Of God Essentials – these landmark stores will have a dedicated “White Space” for a revolving flow of pop-up shops, workshops, performances, panels, and exhibits that brands and influencers will curate on a bi-monthly basis. Interactive video screens will search and showcase PacSun’s many collections, while the Los Angeles location features a dedicated denim room with 40 different denim styles.

“Our customers are young and informed,” says Chang. “Of course, digital connection is critical for our shoppers, but above convenience, PacSun fans crave community, and they use personal style and real-life experiences to help create theirs. We will continue to invest in strategic physical spaces – as well as innovations within the digital space – to provide our customers the forum for that community. Our aim is to bring the best of PacSun and the most exciting global trends and brands together in our landmark stores and digital platforms.”
