THE SNOWBOARD PROJECT Pro Files : Ken Achenbach Ken may be Canada's first snowboarder - if you don't believe me find someone who went riding before him. While that may be in dispute, The Snowboard Shop is not - it was the world's first snowboard specific retailer - inspiring a generation of Canadian riders. He also built the world's first twin tip snowboard - the Barfoot Twin Tip, created an early snowboard specific clothing line and started The Camp of Campions - a snowboard camp that trained a...

THE SNOWBOARD PROJECT Pro Files : Valentino Guseli This is the youngest rider we have ever interviewed. This is also his first interview. Why? Because Valentino Guseli may be the hottest up and coming male freestyle competition rider in the world today. At the age of fifteen, two weeks ago, at his first FIS World Cup event, he won the qualifiers, besting his countryman and undeniable top halfpipe rider Scotty James. He did it by going big. Not just large but mega. I've always said amplitude is t...

Welcome to the secondt episode of THE HAMBIRD MEATGRINDER SHOW. A podcast hosted by snowboarding personalities Andrew Hardingham and Willie McMillon. In this episode we talk with arguably the sport of snowboarding's original artist Mike Parillo. Mike's style has evolved over the years - but his style is unmistakable - and perhaps he above others is synonymous with both snowboard art and the snowboarder as artist. Starting with the cover art of Volcom's The Garden, Mike quickly progressed to pain...

THE SNOWBOARD PROJECT Pro Files : Sven Thorgren Sven first made his mark on professional riding by winning the 2013 Air and Style in Beijing China.

But we start out with his most recent finish - 2nd place at the first post pandemic World Cup event. We touch on a bunch of subjects in this interview - notably his opening part in the re...

THE SNOWBOARD PROJECT We have done a lot of different episodes this fall - but not a lot on pro riders. It seems like with the travel restrictions, lack of events and premieres, it became a lot more difficult to 'do your job' as a professional snowboarding athlete. So I checked in with two of my favorite Norweigan pros - Fridtjof Sæther Tischendorf aka Fridge and Mons Roisland who just came off a podium finish at the first major contest in ten months. Enjoy the episode This week’s interview is b...

THE SNOWBOARD PROJECT Pro Files : Bob Carlson 25 years ago the snowboard industry was a much different place. There were hundreds of brands competing for a foothold on what many people saw as a lucrative marketplace. Fast forward 25 years and almost all of those brands are gone - save for two - Never Summer and Arbor Snowboards. Over the years they have created a unique place in the market through differentiation - namely being the first environmentally oriented brand. In this interview we talk ...
