Artist Nick Hutton Jay kindly put down his paintbrush for a minute to talk about his Kindred experience. Who is Nick? Nick is a painter, creative mastermind and the hand behind hundreds of beautiful mural projects all over North America. Nick co-founded Pacific Board Art - https://pacificboardart.bigcartel.com/ - a West coast arts organization that brings together artists, board sports and conservation fundraising. We really respect folks who fuse their passions with positive community action, and Nick is a great example. When it came time to build him a custom splitboard Nick linked us up with Pacific Board Art co-founder, Ian Adams of Done Creative - https://www.donecreative.ca/ - who allowed us to interpret one of his classic ULLR images in wood marquetry for Nick's board. Thanks to Ivan from Visual Inclination for capturing these interviews: https://visualinclination.com/ If you want us to build you a custom splitboard, snowboard or skis check out our website https://www.kindredsnowboards.com Follow Us: https://www.instagram.com/kindredsnow/ https://www.facebook.com/kindred.snowboards.skis

Local snowboarder Patrick Kitto gave us a few minutes of his time on a powder day to chat about why he loves his Kindred snowboard. He is a local Islander who embodies the passion of boardsports crossover culture. He lives and breathes snow-skate-surf. Pat treats the mountain like a playground, finding reasons to huck himself off every windlip, cliff, roller and chunder nugget. That said, Pat’s true love of snowboarding isn’t just on display when he rides. Besides his street-cred as a local shredder, we think one of the coolest things about Pat is his contribution to the sport through Jump Camp. This is where he pays forward the joy of riding to the next generation. He founded Jump Camp, the infamous grassroots all-ages and abilities freestyle snowboard camp, over twenty years ago! Many local snowboarders have started their progression into freestyle riding under the guidance of Pat and the crew of Jump Camp coaches and mentors. Also, for the past few years he has organized a snowboard drive to provide equipment to local youth and take some financial pressure off snow-loving families. If you want to support the snowboard drive it begins next week on Dec 1st – that is only 6 days away! Check out the Jump Camp links below for details about how to donate gear and put a smile on a kid’s face.
