1. Mission Statement & Overview of our Snowboard Websites -
Winter 2005 - 2006
Mission Statement: SnowboardSecrets.com was started in April 2003 by Lauren
Traub Teton, as a resource of original content articles, to share the joys
of snowboarding with readers, and to encourage those not in the "traditional
snowboard demographic" to give this fantastic sport a try.
Overview: The website has grown to over 100 pages in size, and spawned
several other online resources for snowboarders (listed below) as rider
needs and solutions became apparent.
The sites are provided free as a service to our riding readers and (elusive)
profit is not by any means our main motivator. Our site visits are growing
fast, often doubling month over month of the previous year.
A few select products that we use and heartily endorse are for sale at
http://www.snowboardsecrets.com/shopping.htm to help pay the
rent.
We appreciate your media coverage of our sites!

Online Resources for Snowboarders
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. http://www.SnowBoardSecrets.com
A snowboard "mega" site with over 100 pages, designed to help readers evolve
as snowboarders while keeping them entertained. Articles such as "You Donıt
Have to Hurt Yourself to Snowboard," first-hand coverage of events like the
US Open, rail jams, parties and more. Fashion features, Q and A with
Experts, interviews with pros, snowboard checklist, "How to Unpack Your Car
in 5 Minutes" article, and more.
The Snowboard Szine newsletter is available free by subscription and will
give readers "a slice" of whatıs happening on the slopes and off.

3. Stop Snowboard Crime! Register your boards at
http://www.SnowBoardRegistry.com
(as mentioned in Snowboarder magazine!)
The SnowboardRegistry.com was designed so that board owners can post their
snowboard serial numbers online when their boards are safe. If their boards
disappear, we post "missing" next to their board description.
Itıs easy to find your serial number online if you need to report a missing
board to the police, even if youıre away from home.
Before buying a used board, check The SnowboardRegistry.com to make sure
itıs not one that was reported stolen. Itıs bad karma to ride a stolen
board.

4. http://www.SnowboardEventsCalendar.com
This will be the third season for the "Biggest Snowboard Events Calendar
Online." Last year over 200 events were listed on the East Coast Calendar
alone. Last year a "California" section was added to the
SnowboardEventsCalendar.com.
Events are competitions, camps, clinics, parties, and other special events.
The calendar was designed to be easy to read and uses color coding for the
different states.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. Snow Deals at
http://SnowDealSqueal.com
Got a lift ticket deal or other "special" that you want people to know
about?
Mountain resorts, hotels, shops, anyone with a deal that will be of interest
to snowboarders can post on this page free, or for a nominal fee. The fee
entitles the user to a live link to his or her site and a more detailed ad.
27,000 snowboarders a month (and growing!) may see your listing on this
site.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
6. http://www.SnowboardProFiles.com
Winners of snowboard events can pop up from anywhere.
As a journalist covering a snowboard event, have you ever tried to get
background info on an upstart competitor, and you canıt find a thing online?
This happened to me at the US Open last winter. So I conceived this new
site.
This will be a database of profiles of snowboard pros and sponsored riders.
All of the above sites are written, edited, and owned by Lauren Traub Teton,
with a little help from her friends.
