Supporting Vital Snowboarding Communities
The mission of Methodology is to support the prosperity of vital snowboarding communities and the lives of those in them. We strive to create an event series that goes beyond competition, by enhancing the environment of these communities and bringing the people and initiatives in them closer together. This has a profound impact that reverberates long after we leave town.
To fulfill this mission the proceeds of the Methodology series go to helping youth experience snowboarding and our culture. Ultimately our goal is to grow our community because we believe it can change lives, because it has changed ours. Read more about our mission here.
