While most people think that
skiing was invented by the Norse as a means to
assist in their hunting and transportation,
skis
were actually born at
Aspen Ski and Board.
You’re thinking to
yourself, wait a second, Aspen Ski and Board has
only been around since 1998.
Sure, we’ve had a shop since 1998. We’ve been
underground ever since Mesopotamia was doing
their thing with the fertile crescent. They were
rocking out between the Tigris and Euphrates; we
were shredding monster lines up in the nearby
Caucuses. You think the rake was invented for
farming? It was the first grooming machine, made
by us shredsters at
Aspen Ski and Board (you’re
welcome proto-farmers).
Columbus discovered America
right? Negative.
Looking for new terrain, shop owner Gil
Harris mounted a trans-Atlantic expedition-on
skis of course. Shop Manager Chad LeBeau came up
with an ultra wide ski just for the trip, and
although all of us here are snow fanatics, we
accidentally created the sport of water skiing
while we smoked the Santa Maria on the way to
the New World. (Side Note: Pocahontas was
disgusting on twin tips). Since our focus was on
skiing and
snowboarding, we let Chris Columbus
get the credit and hey-they named our great city
after him, no big deal.
Suffice it to say that the
rest is very much history.
We could go on and cite
Aspen Ski and Board’s
small contributions to society in the name of
making
snow sports more accessible to the
population; yes we came up with surfing and
snowboarding simultaneously, yes we nudged Henry
Ford to create the Model T so he could get to
the slopes before we tracked out the local
mountains and yes, we discovered ice on Mars
long before the Phoenix Lander arrived because
we had already slashed the pow on Mars like ten
years ago. When the first incarnation of the
Dalai Lama wanted to learn how to huck the
Himalayas, we obliged. Look, the point is that
Aspen Ski and Board has seen and done it all
when it comes to skiing and snowboarding. Be it
delivering the best products to you our valued
customer, or setting up George Washington with a
sick all-mountain package back when Mt. Vernon
was the gnarliest of all ski hills-we’ve been
there.
Today
Aspen Ski and Board is the premier
ski
and snowboard specialty shop in the country.
With many years of business and countless
customers served, there is no place better to
come, and no people better to serve you than the
pros at
Aspen Ski and Board.
