I'm stoked for her.
they changed "skiing" to "snowboarding" but it's no big deal.
Jo is on here too she is Jo_shmo btw. here is the link you can see her art and stuff.

Why can't they just keep it at skiing? There is nothing wrong with putting the word "skiing" on the website.

i know it's kinda wierd, i'm not surprised though, they are basicly using jo as an advert and they do market toward snowboarders mainly and they are run and operated by snowboarders. still i doubt many would care that much, maybe it's just cos when snowboarders think of skiers they think of normal downhill skiers not people like us and grenade doesn't want to be asociated with that? i mean i wouldn't blame them, i don't like it my self.

it's cool that she got onto the site, but them changing skiing to snowboarding is ridiculous.

he is on their team i think cr is too and travis redd wears them i think, they also sponsor one or two pros from the uk. i doubt they get as much out of it as the boarders do though.

Props to her. Nice work.

Hopefully she is not claiming the top-middle picture as her own work, because that is definitely off the cover of Funeral For a Friend's - Casually Dressed and Deep in Conversation album.

Exactly. If someone is buying their gloves and doesn't know about "us" then they are just gapers buying radical gloves.

no she painted it for her room cos ffaf is one of her fovorite bands. i think she's just claiming the skill to copy it well.
