The last movie produced by SNOWBOARDER Magazine was almost a decade-and-a-half ago, when we employed the iconic Jamie Mosberg to make 1999, and now, we’re proud to introduce to you a film that’s not simply fourteen years in the making, but rather twenty seven years in the making. Since 1987, SNOWBOARDER Magazine has enlightened, entertained, and inspired our readers, and with The SNOWBOARDER Movie: Foreword, we’ve adopted the same ideology to a new and expanding audience. As snowboarding progresses exponentially with every passing winter, we’re continually forced to look to the future, and with Foreword, we will open the door for the next generation of snowboarding superstars, personalities, and luminaries that span the full spectrum of the current crop of talent today. Starring in this film are a handful of riders who will one day take the reigns from their elders and steer snowboarding’s proverbial ship. The Foreword roster is Spencer Schubert, Dillon Ojo, Hans Mindnich, Sam Taxwood, Dylan Alito, Garrett Warnick, Brandon Hobush, Jaeger Bailey, Blake Paul, Nils Mindnich, Sage Kotsenburg, Ben Ferguson, and Ayumu Hirano, and these kids are ready to show the world that snowboarding’s future is in good hands. This is the first of many SNOWBOARDER Magazine films to come. This is Foreword.

His part was filmed in a month long period on a trip from Maine to Colorado. They stopped in cities such as Syracuse, Rochester, Cleveland and Chicago.
