Southside Boarding Club
Our nonprofit snowboarding brand is for everyone but also represents those who had or have an unconventional path to the slopes. Most of us didn't grow up in ski towns so it took some effort on our part to even be here. Some of us were first-generation riders who pursued the sport even when our families and neighborhood friends didn't understand our why. For this reason, proceeds from our clothing line go to support SSBC's effort to bring more diversity and inclusion to the sport of snowboarding/skiing. We do this by teaching kids financial literacy while providing opportunities for inner city youth to have access to local ski resorts. Check them out on Facebook and Instagram @southside_boarding_club
