Just in from agoodreed’s amigo Danny: snowfall across the pond in the United Kingdom.

Sometimes, snowboarders get silly sponsors. And sometimes, sneaky snakes slither slyly. Sssssssss.
But sometimes snowboarders select sponsors smartly, such is the case here.
This week in words agoodreed can’t pronounce…

“Core snowboard brand, Rome SDS, has teamed up with Consolidated Skateboards to create a premium boot with a subversive agenda. Though the approach is playful, the issue is not to be taken lightly.

To ensure that you get the most out of these premieres, we recommend you heed our guide…
