Splitting Up

February 16 2010

Team Rider Forrest Shearer has been on the charge, and doing it by split boarding! Forrest is a man of the snow, and understands it better than anyone. Calling Snowbird home Forrest knows how to ride the steep. He has now taken his snowboarding to the next level by abandoning the sled and heli and doing it on his own. He was featured in the latest issue of TWS, and the March issue of Mens Fitness because of it. He has also become an active speaker for P.O.W (Protect Our Winters), check out the site HERE!

Dear Baggy, I Wear Tight.

February 15 2010

After watching a battle form between Baggy vs. Tight on their comment board, one of CELTEK's European Distributor's, Good Question decided to light a candle and make love. CELTEK riders Michael Botzenhart and Davo Struber hit the resort in Austria and put this video together. There were no fists thrown, no hair pulling, and everyone's dream catcher was still attached. It was just straight snowboard love.

Celtek Clan Claims 2 Dew Cups

February 09 2010

The Celtek Clan stands on the podium once again, but this time taking it all! Snowboardings Pipe Veteran JJ Thomas, and Young buck Sage Kotsenburg were crowned overall Dew Cup Champions this weekend in Mount Snow Vermont. JJ who was looked to as the underdog going into this season with not having a double cork in his run put his head down and charged! With a 3rd place at the first stop in Breckenridge, and then taking 1st and the third and final stop in Mount Snow, JJ clinched the cup. With a run consisting of airs 3-5 feet higher than the rest of the field it was no doubt JJ would be holding the top spot.

Sage, a 16 year old newcomer turned just about everybody's heads so far this season. With runs consisting of some of the smoothest 270's, an unstoppable Cab 9, frontside and backside double cork 10's it's hard not to just give him the win. Sage took 2nd at the first Dew Tour stop in Breck, a 3rd and the second stop in Snow Basin,UT, and 2nd and the third and final stop in Mount Snow. He pinched himself as he took the overall Dew Cup spot, along with Ball Park's Rookie of the year. A big congrats goes out to JJ and Sage, as well as the rest of the Team this year. Sam Hulbert finished 4th in Mount Snow to cap off an impressive season thus far. High fives also go out to Eric Willet, Brandon Reis, and Nick Julius!
