Our story begins back in the late 80’s. The spot was Castle Rock, a sleepy town south of Denver, Colorado. Our posse was tight, and we loved ripping ramps and street. When we took it to the street, the “43” was a combo trick that took finesse and a touch of luck to stick. Well, the “43” stuck, and would follow us for decades like a good luck shadow. Later on, as young adults, when we launched Bootleg Snowboards the ’43’ became a favorite memory that carried us through those entrepreneurial days. We are proud to say the contributions we made to the evolution of snowboards are still used today!
