How We Build Kindred Snowboards Splitboards and Skis

Our friends at Visual Inclination have captured what it's like inside the Kindred Workshop. On any average workday here at Kindred HQ you will catch us cutting, laminating, grinding, dust-bathing and polishing - all to the soundtrack of whatever the day's flavour of music is. Honestly, it's usually music by friends or our favourite CKUA radio! In this case it's Merville's own Luke Blu Guthrie. We are big fans. Anyhow, this video is meant to highlight some visually interesting aspects of our meticulous hands-on build process. We also wanted to celebrate how far things have come over the past 10 years! If you've been following us for a while, maybe you've noticed the evolution of our process. While there are always new things to learn, we're so stoked and proud to be making the highest quality boards and skis around, right here in on Vancouver Island, Canada.
