If you watch what is actually happening in the ski industry, they are trying very hard to figure out how to keep people coming to the resorts and spending their money. There are more corporate resorts that own more properties and they are driven by money. As the Skiing market matures, alot of people who skied and are getting older and don't ski as much, they are working hard to get new markets excited about winter sports. The trouble is that the sport has become so expensive for the average user, they just aren't going. How do we find a solution to getting another 10 million snow sports enthusiast involved in snowsports. We have to find an inexpensive, low impact and environmentally friendly way for people to get involved. The easiest and least expensive approach would to be find a good pitch wide and open and build a staircase. let them hike, let them learn and let them pay for parking. The first resort to figure this out will be at the top of Grellboard's list.

On another note, this weekend two events are happening, the Throwback at Breckenridge and the Legends at Boreal. I send my love and best regards to all my friends and family, have a great time and see you next year. JG

Online store is open for business at www.grellboards.com

Technology is a challenge.
I didn't realize the online store wouldn't allow buyers to shop without a password, that's corrected.
So we decided to drop our prices to see if it would generate some better results.

Technology is a challenging thing and when misunderstood doesn't help you.
So with that out of the way, let the orders roll in.

Between Grellboards California and Rocky Mountain, we can deliver the best handmade Snurfboards made.
As for all the rest, try and catch up. Its taken years to develop our line up and we are proud of every board we build. Each board is numbered and built by hand. We use epoxy resin along with fiberglass and carbon fibers and Ptex base to insure the boards are durable and fast.

Have fun out there.
