Chill Foundation

We were able to run 127 days of snowboard programming in the US alone this winter! ⁠ ⁠ A massive thank you to our friends at @sharewinterfoundation . With their help we were able to get so many more young people out on the slopes and shredding this winter!⁠ ⁠ 📸: @pbnj_all_day @erica_m_stark @karlosjeri_ ⁠ #sharewinter #Sharewinterfoundation

@chillfoundation is back! 🔥🔥🔥 Happy to host another program with our friends from Chill! Chill inspires young people through boardsports and builds a more equitable outdoor community. Each week introduced a different core value and this week’s was courage 🦁 Coach G (@th3kid6 ) had everyone showing themselves how brave they can be 🙌✨

After 20 years on skis, I officially decided it was time to hang them up and trade them for a snowboard, because apparently I thought learning to fall all over again sounded like a good idea 😂🏂 It definitely reminded me what it feels like to be a beginner again, but it was such a rewarding experience stepping outside my comfort zone and trying something different. Huge shoutout to @thenextlevel531 , @benbclark and a massive thank you to Chill for creating such a positive environment while helping the students build confidence, learn new skills, and have an amazing experience at Big Snow. @chillfoundation @bigsnowad @benbclark @thenextlevel531 #snowboard #snow #adventure #learning #sport #chill #explore

We took a little trip with our Toronto crew to @bluemtnresort a few weeks ago as part of our Explore program. We had an epic few days on the slopes learning about career opportunities, getting 1 on 1 coaching in the park, and just snowboarding and having fun 😊

Happy Friday!⁠ ⁠ Hope yall have a pretty CHILL weekend! We know we will 😁🤙🏽⁠ 📸: @pbnj_all_day

One week since the first annual @chillfoundation Shorebreak Scramble at @arrowoodgolfcourse ⛳️🌊 Still blown away by the turnout, the energy, and everyone who showed up to support Chill. Huge thank you to every golfer, sponsor, donor, volunteer, and friend who helped make the day such a success. From the surf, skate, and snow worlds coming together, to all the laughs, good swings, bad swings, beers, and stories shared out on the course… it was a pretty special day. And somehow we raised over $50K for Chill ❤️ Chill’s work creating opportunities for young people through boardsports, mentorship, and community is something really meaningful, and we’re so grateful to everyone who helped support that mission. Thank you @bubsnaturals for supporting as our presenting sponsor, @benjiweatherley @breakerscbg for hosting us the night before the tournament, and @donnacarpenter @george_burton_carpenter @taylor_carpenter13 for coming out here to support! Shout out @ryandauds & @alagoner from Chill, @jasenisaacs @ryanrunke @marketinggoon for helping bring it all together, and @carlidunzo @maddyyyyson for the edit! Also would like to thank all of the sponsors and supporters: @redbull @burton DanCrew @caylent Snapsoft @bumpcoffee SDLA @malbon @drbronner @turtleboxaudio @sunbum @nixon @yeti @humesupernatural @nakoaperformance @mcmorrisfdn @seagrass.supply Do It @melin @mammothmountain @pedderautogroup @rangesportstherapy @hitsbev We couldn’t have done it without all of you. Already excited for next year!

LDOH for our Salt Lake crew! Thank you @brightonresort for an amazing season!

Headed to Oceanside with @bryanknox for a @chillfoundation event hosted by @brockcrouch . If you’re not familiar, Chill is a program founded by @burtonsnowboards that has given over 30,000 kids the opportunity to get on snow and experience snowboarding for the first time. Having spent so many years at Burton, I always had a deep appreciation for this program and the incredible volunteers who showed up to give back to the community in such a unique and positive way. Yesterday’s turnout was huge, and it was such a great opportunity to reconnect with old friends and colleagues while meeting some new ones along the way. I don’t think I’ve ever smiled that much on a golf course, but then again, I also wasn’t slicing balls into hazards on every hole…so that probably helped. Big props to Brock and his girlfriend @oliviaa.kelly for putting together such an incredible event. Already looking forward to next year.

Not a great performance, but we had one hell of a time @chillfoundation . Thanks for having us @bubsnaturals Film: @dixon_may

Seattle Explore programs have officially wrapped! ⁠ ⁠ "We enjoyed an absolutely soaking Friday of riding. These youth slayed- they made the best of weather that scares away even seasoned riders ;) We were joined by Jaque as one of our instructors during the morning and then kept doing laps with us through the afternoon. We also had guest mentor Winston at program. Winston is one of four black men in the country who has achieved their AASI level 3 cert, and last week got his FS 2, so having him as a mentor even just for a day was immensely valuable. BIPOC instructors everywhereeee :) Last night we enjoyed a trampoline and dry slope session at stoke mountain where youth got to practice back flips (!!) and dialed in their turns. Afterwards we enjoyed a career chat with their coaches and founder- very inspiring! Thank you to everyone who helped make explore so magical, rain and all ☔️" ⁠ ⁠ - Lizzy, Seattle Program Coordinator
