Jeremy Jensen surfing thru the snow and weeds without any bindings on his Grassroots Powsurfer

The first powsurfing day of the season 2015 came in early November. This year we waited a bit longer than usual and started out with conditions a bit shallower than usual too. This makes even basic powdersurfing in simple open fields quite spicey! But we have no complaints.. “low tide” is better than no tide.. and I don’t mind blasting thru the weeds. In fact, the sounds of smashing through leaves justs adds to the fun and symbolizes the last throws of autumn. And no matter what, it feels so great to get out and breathe the cool mountain air, and of course to powsurf the beautiful whites that mother nature provides.

With only about 11 inches of snow separating the dirt from our powsurfers it was a light-footed session, quick and mellow turns on the lower angle terrain. We listened as others on skis and snowboards scraped the ground, but the float of our Grassroots Powsurfers kept us floating on top.

The first powsurfing day of the season 2015 is always the best day of the season!  It’s always amazing the amount of fun we can have in such simple terrain as we wait for the big waves to fill in. Stoked as ever to welcome a new season of powsurfing! Enjoy our quick and dirty Opening Session edit for 2015!

We’ve been having so much fun riding these shapes that we started to feel guilty keeping them all to ourselves. So 2013-14 is your lucky season! We are stoked to make these unique shapes available to the rest of the powsurfing community. Each board was designed and shaped by Jeremy Jensen and they handmade with care, one at a time in a tiny garage in Logan, Utah.  Their sex appeal goes beyond just aesthetics, they back it up with performance.

We are offering an number of different graphic & shape combinations so click here to pick out your next ride or contact us to inquire about a combination that is not listed.
