SIA has come and gone, and damn it feels good to have launched the brand for all to see. The show couldn’t have gone off any better for us, people are stoked with the brand message and the product, which is why the brand exists. We’re making outerwear, midlayer and baselayer that is clean and mean, you can’t mess with this shit. Check out the link to our catalog, I hope you’ll agree. Thanks to Overhaul for the rad design and fabrication of our booth. For a 10′ x 20′ space, Erik blew us all away with the lines and his hand built furniture from scrap metal and reclaimed wood. Also a big thanks to everyone who came by, drank some whiskey with us and most importantly supports what we’re doing.

Joel has been a busy dude this month, most recently winning best trick in slopestyle at the Meadows Burton AM Series. Señor Fuquay walked away with a nice little check for his Cab 1080.

Some days she decides to raise the snow levels to 6,000 feet (now), but at least we’ve seen more of her cold side this year. Team rider Joel Fuquay showing us how to best take advantage of it. Photos courtesy of Drew Smalley, talented dude.
CONTEST TIME: email your us your best La Niña pics from this season and we’ll send you a real nice Homeschool package consisting of a Beanie, t-shirt and die-cuts, info@homeschoolsnowboarding.com. I’ll have Joel pick 2 winners.

For those who may have missed the news we are stoked to welcome Joel Fuquay to the Homeschool Snowboarding team. Joel is a rad dude from up the road in Welches. We’re excited to watch him throw down this winter. Here’s a little edit he put together last week making the most out of what the early season has to offer.

Not sure if it was my time away from spending winters in the NW or if it’s the chatter of La Niña, but people are stoked about what’s coming. Feels good.
Here are a couple of people dedicating their time to all things snowboarding in our great region, both online and print. Do yourself a favor and check them out if you haven’t yet.
Northwest Boarder - great interviews, product reviews, and general stoke by the man behind the curtain Landon Dowlen. Excited to spend some time in the mountains with this crew.
Shred NW Magazine - check out their inaugural issue or snake one from your local shop….it’s free. Great content, plus John and the rest of the team can throw one hell of a launch party. Boneyard Beer was pouring pints all night long, have you tried it yet? Shit is good. If you’re in Bend stop by their brewery for some free tasters, Melodee will hook it up. Check out the Shred NW mag online.

If you haven’t seen this video or heard this song, you can thank us now. Last night we caught Volcom’s new movie 9191 last night in Seattle, and glad we made it happen. Met some rad cats, caught up with old homies and of course it’s always good to see that the early season stoke is already high.

“All night hikes, sleeping on peaks, camping 65 miles from civilization, 20 below temperatures, 10 day storms, and 20 mile days bring the adventure back into riding.” Shit is inspiring. Check out the trailer if you haven’t yet.
