Snow News

Today I noticed that leaves are starting to fall, which means...snowboard season is quickly approaching. Most Modern employees and customers are not happy that summer has come to an end because now school is back in session and outdoor skateboard season is almost over. But for me, winter is my favorite season, by far!
Because I am super amp'd on the upcoming snowboard season, today's blog is going to be dedicated to all things snowboarding! (I have the power to do this, because I am the one writing!)

I found some pretty hilarious articles about some professional snowboarders today. First off is Danny Davis, an Alpine Valley Resort local, was signed by Totino's Pizza Rolls®. I found this HILARIOUS, but then thought about it for a while. How awesome would it be to get pizza rolls for life? Here's the actual article. Second, Louie Vito is on ABC's Dancing With The Stars. This is old news, but I thought it would be interesting to post. This season premiered yesterday, and from what the article says, he is doing a pretty good job. To read more, click here.

In past blogs we have mentioned the fact that we are getting in snowboard gear, well here are some pictures of what we have in. We are getting in new stuff every day, so keep checking back for updates!
