Hey,

Im doing a project for school. I was wondering if anyone has any articles they've read(online especially, since it's due tomorrow morning) about freeskiing industry history, how it's blown up into a huge business niche to sales reports on twintips, etc.

Same for snowboarding

Any help is much appreciated,
Ivan

check out the backstory about line. It should be somewhere on their website.

also check out Dumont's documentary, "transitions". It had some pretty good background about freeskiing

refresh also has a bunch of stuff about filming and some stuff about warren miller...if that might help. for snowboarding the movie double decade by mackdawg productions is helpful; its kinda like the equivalent of refresh only for snowboarding.

in comparision to overall ski sales, twin tip sales are a fraction of the total ski industry revenue.  While this is growing, still very small.  Twin Tips keep the industry cool and your parents and gapers keep the industry alive with money. 

Do yourself a favor and pick another topic.  Good luck on the paper.
