RPS The Board Store

Another RPS based boarding trip to Japan with a few former store customers.
A week long Spring dump gave us awesome conditions at Furano & Tomamu.
The trip to Asahidake was next level.
Already a planning next year's trip!

DC Mtn Lab 1.5 was one our most popular snowboarding dvd's in 2007/08

Ken Block starring was one of the main reasons it became so popular.

Rewind to this day 2012, guess dropped into RPS?

Kai Lenny is now the world's pre-eminent waterman.

Apart from his big wave exploits, he's also a professional windsurfer, kitesurfer, sup racer, foils everything and also loves to snowboard.

Before his shop visit, I interviewed him for 15 minutes about what he'd already achieved and where he was heading. (Must try & find that edit!)

I still have the board he signed for me.

Congratulations James!!

Enjoy!
