At the core of snowboarding lies one constant, compelling need; an itch that pushes every rider to explore new mountains, find new lines, and push any and all boundaries. Adventure. That indescribably hankering that keeps us trekking, seeking, and traveling to carve out another season worth reminiscing about. To quote good old Ralph Waldo Emerson, “Life is a journey, not a destination,” and with the season pressing in upon us, now is the time to scheme, plan, and prepare for the journeys to come.
