That’s a wrap for the 2025 Cheapskates Spring Slasher. What a day. What a turn out…considering the weather. Stoked on the support of the local snowboard community. You gotta love that. Groms, Youth, Open, Masters. Tricky conditions but the vibes were so so positive.
Shout out to and for putting it on.
To Jenna for the tee design and James at for printing the t shirts. And Gricey for the trophys and stickers 👊
And the generous support of prizes from these fine people

A tasty wee range of in-store now.
The pick is the Dancehaul, a good time for sure, even better in red.

But for all terrain dominance, top to bottom flaring, chuck in a lap or three through the park, you can’t beat the Assassin.

Come shopping…in a shop. Nerd out on snowboard stuff. Talk about snowboarding stuff. Touch that snowboarding stuff. We’re all about it.

Or shop online. We have one of those shops too
