The ARTICLES section has been updated and the first article has been added.
The article that was added is titled All Terrain Boarders Around the World and features ATBWorld; a social map for boarders all over the world. The idea is to add yourself to the map so everyone can see if there are other riders in their area.
New articles about all terrain boarding will be added frequently so be sure to check out this section often.
We can all admit that the all terrain boarding industry is still a long way from butting heads with skateboarding and snowboarding giants, and because of this some of us have a hard time finding the gear we want.
We noticed that a lot of people were asking us "Where do I get mountainboarding gear??? I live in the United States and I can't find anything!?" We heard your frustration and went to work on the new section of the website GEAR.
In the GEAR section you can find all kinds of all terrain boarding gear listed on Amazon at what we think are pretty good prices.
The thing is, stores all over the web list their products on Amazon.com for cheap because they want to tap into Amazons massive amount of traffic! So in many cases you can find all terrain boarding gear on stores like Amazon for cheaper than the stores actual website!
If you are ever curious about the price of a new mountainboard, or you want to see what kind of products are out there, feel free to browse the GEAR section because thats why it's there.
We want you to find the best price possible, so don't hesitate to compare the prices with what you find in the gear section with stores elsewhere!
Better yet, if you find something you like in the GEAR section you can buy it directly from this website! Just add the items you want to your cart and checkout, it is secure and is powered by Amazon.
Just got done adding a new page to ATBriders. Now you can upload up to 5 of your favorite songs to your profile. There is a max file size limit of 15mb, so make sure the songs you upload are under it or it will not upload.
Most songs are around 5-12mb so it shouldn't be a problem.
You can also add music videos to your profile by visiting the "Music" page which can be found on the main menu bar. 10 new music videos will be added daily, so be sure to check often.
Anyone have requests for music videos? Leave a comment and let me know what video you would like me to add.
The Disney movie Johnny Kapahala Back on Board has led the way for increasing exposure for this great sport. This board is a product of Akoni Kama's design and was used in the movie. It is designed and targeted to youth who want to get into the thrill of mountain boarding Johnny Kapahala style. With 8 inch wheels and 12 mm skate trucks, young riders wont have a problem tearing up terrain with this popular board.
MBS started manufacturing mountainboards in 1996 and was able to make $2 million in sales in 2000. Seven years later that number should be dramatically larger as the sport has continued to grow.
The company got their success by starting small and asking specialty shops to give their mountainboards a try. Since then they have had to do nothing but look back and wave at competitors in the mountainboarding sport industry.
You can view more on MBS in this article that was in Entrepreneur magazine a while back.
