Want to ride the sickest gear for the sickest team?
With S3 opening in Grande Prairie this July we need to recruit some talent to ride for us (S3 West).
Sponsorships will range from free S3 swag to total hook-ups (the best new gear every year) AND entry-fees to rad contests all over.
Think you have what it takes to ride for S3?? Post a link to your skateboard or snowboard YouTube videos here (or on Facebook) and we'll check it out.
Probably the best way to fast-track your ass to fame and fortune.
Bring it.

We've been at it non-stop since rolling into Grande Prairie and we're getting so stoked for our doors to open in July!
We're nailing down lines (that you can't buy at Winners, or Below The Belt) and our product mix is looking sick (our clothing buyer kicks ass and we love her. Seriously), and the construction guys are getting stuff done right on sched.
We have a couple design concepts to hammer down, so we're back off to Montreal tomorrow to visit our friends, S3 East, for a few days. We're going to visit some shops, have a few meetings (nail down timelines), and God-willing hit some big mountain pow. While we're out East we're also going to order a crap-load of S3 gear to start giving away back home (tees, hoodies, stickers, skate decks, 'n more!) so keep your eyes peeled to our blog, Facebook and Twitter accounts cause that's where all the hints/contests will be posted!
Gotta jet (still haven't packed... ugh...).
Later skaters.

Cypress Swill: A soggy look at the Olympic snowboard venue

Over the past year, and particularly in the last month, there have been a ton of rumours and innuendo flying around about the pipe events at Cypress. Will they be a repeat of last year's World Cup? Will they have the snow? Will I-Pod unleash and dethrone Shaun White's gold status?
It's anybody's guess at this point but I got a first-hand look at the venue yesterday... in the absolute pouring rain! I'm not talking a little Wet Coast dampness here, I'm talking a torential downpour. Vancouver has been much praised about the promise of a "green" Games, but this is taking it to the extreme. full article

We hear the snow is crazy out in PK so we rolled out this morning.
We're hoping to hit some sick pow and scope out some talent for the first S3 West Crew.
Hoping to find somebody tearin it up out there today.
Stoked.
See ya when we see ya.

We are excited to announce that the first S3 West location will be opening this July in Grande Prairie, Alberta!
Construction is happening, orders are being placed and we're starting to hire the crew that will be killing it day-in-and-day-out.
Not sure if we can load up the pic we just took with this iPhone, but if we can't, they'll be up soon (if you're rockin in GP you will probably recognize our neighbours).
Rock the party that rocks the party!

Hey crew,
Sorry it's been a few days since we've chatted but so much has been going on it's been hard to find time to write.
Our clothing and footwear buyer has been getting orders in with some of the companies we're teaming up with out West (Matix, DVS, Circa, Supra, Krew, Cons, Vestal, Creative Rec, Insight, Quick, Roxy, and the list goes on and on and on) so that's pretty cool.
We also showed up "undercover" at a local snowboard comp to start scopin out talent to ride for S3 starting next season (we're not talking about giving away a few t-shirts here, we're looking for riders we can fully set up with gear, get them noticed, and make them famous!). We saw some pretty sick stuff out there and definatly think we can ink some riders before the snow melts this year!
Lastly, we've got some S3 gear ordered so we can start giving stuff away (we're going to give more threads and decks away then the "other guys" and we aren't even open yet) so keep checking out our blog, Twitter account and Facebook site for hints and contests to get hooked-up!
