Moment Skis joins the Athletes With a Cause team

Reno, Nevada – Straight outta North Reno and backed by some of the Sierra’s best freeride skiers, Moment skis have found a diehard local following in just a few short seasons. The reason? Their innovative and hand made two-plank designs excel in pow, crud, corn, goo, boilerplate…basically if it’s white and frozen Moment makes a ski to slay it. Now they’re teaming with Life More Natural to make a difference, not just sick skis. With the ‘09 season just around the corner, Moment and LMN are teaming up to send some local underprivileged kids to ski school at Sky Tavern.

It’s a Powder Day! Well, at least we hope it is. It’s been snowing on the Mt. Rose summit the past few days.

I guess you can call it a snow bank. Hmm, anyways.
