At the Beginning of the summer in 2018, over in the Never Summer factory the father of freestyle came in and hand signed the brand new make of the Sims RT2 Terry Kidwell pro model snowboard. With an extremely limited number of signed boards, us here at Salty Peaks snowboard shop were lucky enough to get our hands on a few different sizes. Handmade by the guys over at the Never Summer factory, these snowboards are built to last a lifetime.

Why do you snowboard? It’s that feeling you get cruising down the mountain: slashing, carving, getting some air. It’s like a big skate
park when you hit the good lines. I love being in the mountains and riding in the moment. It’s like flying down the Mountain. Powder days are the best.
Riding with friends always makes for good times.
What/anything else? A special thanks to SIMS Snowboards, Marc Vitelli and Hilary Sims for keeping Tom’s legacy alive with boards that
Tom would be stoked to ride and promote. There is something special about having a SIMS board under my feet. SIMS RULES!!! Thanks Tom!
Thanks: Mom and Dad for all your continued support over the years and those first 2 boards you bought me when I started riding. All my
friends and all the riders around the world that have the same passion to shred and have fun. And of course thank you to all my sponsors. You guys
rock. Ride On!
