LANCE MOUNTAIN

October 30th, 2008

I was checking out Transtions web site the other day. On my journey in Internet land I noticed that StreetLab had a small party last Friday. It was a release party for some new Lance Mountain Nike SB shoes and a chance for people to get hooked up with some good deals. So how is Lance Mountain relevant to Snowboarding. Well he’s not but he is a living legend as far as skateboarding goes. Lance is my all time favorite skater. My first Skateboard was a Lance Mountain “Crest” Powell Peralta in white. Although only because the shop didn’t have a Cab. I skated that board to death. As I got older I was able to pinch some old stock from various skate shops in the States and Canada. My goal was to try and find all my favorite boards of the past but in still new condition. Not an easy task. I’ve got a few Lance’s in the collection and some very rare Lance Artwork as well. It’s cool to see someone like Lance still be influential in today’s skateboarding. Although his company The Firm no longer is around he’s still skating strong for Flip Skateboards. As for my collection well it’s still waiting to find a place on the walls of the Stuntwood office. Oh and by the way it turns out that Lance has some relevancy to snowboarding. Back in the 90′s Lance had his own pro model for a Company called Luxury Snowboards. So for you new school kids there’s a little history for you. Here’s some photos from my collection and some random Lance.
