This place is incredible. Don't make any snap judgments based on the small appearance of the shop - Rich has a TON! I also love that he has a ton of Nidecker gear you just won't see anywhere else. Most importantly, Rich is a kind gentleman who is insanely intelligent when it comes to boarding. Countless times he's tuned my gear and given me great advice. Just today, he helped me fix a set of bindings I got from him. Rich made pennies for his time, but he ultimately fixed a broken high back on the bindings. He also made a back up high back out of the broken one! This seems trivial, but it wasn't - replacement parts for these particular bindings are very hard to come by. He charged me a very nominal price for a part, gave me an hour of his time, and saved me $200. This place is wonderful. Rich is even better. You won't be disappointed when you visit this Yogi of the snow!

Family Business

We're a small family business in Madison, WI, since 1958. When you buy from us, you're supporting a family of riders who have experience personally and professionally in snowboarding, watersports, and inboard marine mechanics.

If you're looking for cheap gear that breaks, isn't sized properly, or is uncomfortable, go somewhere else. We specialize in customizing a setup that performs well, looks slick, and feels good when hitting the slopes or wake.

Hours

Please call us first to make sure we're around.

Snowboards

Nidecker, APO, Prospect, and other boards. While some of our gear is older, it's unused. They just don't make things like they used to, so don't count on a brand new model surpassing the excellence of models made at the height of the industry.

Choosing a board based on graphics is the wrong choice, and instead we offer a personalized recommendation based on you, your goals, and your own experience. Each board is designed for a specific purpose, whether it be speed, rails, or leisure.

Wakeboards

CWB, Liquid Force, Connelly, Proline, and others available.

Trade-Ins

Yes, we take trade-ins and sell used equipment for beginners looking to find out just how much they like the sport. We do not trade in used clothing.

Marina

PCM, Indmar, Velvet Drive, and Hurth Certified. Rich has had 50 years experience in marine sales, service, and sports knowledge.
