Last week we did not have a winner. The question was how many people work full time for Airblaster. The correct response was 4. We have a couple other people working for us but they are not 100% full time. Some work more then full time during parts of the year and during others do not. This number of people have changed over the years but the number of full time year round people has been steady at 4 for some time. Many people guessed, 5, 6, 7, 3 and this was very close but not one person nailed the number 4. One person that gets a honorable mention is Mack Powers. Mack guessed 70 people work at Airblaster. Now I am not sure if he was joking, accidentally added a 0 to a guess of 7 or was dead serious that he thought 70 people worked at Airblaster. If he was serious then high five friend, but you are way off. Many times we get people thinking we are a large company with many employees and private jets. This is not true, we are not DC and as far as I know we have no plans to be at that level anytime soon. We are growing but we like who and what we are and will continue making good quality snowboarder designed product for all you snow slashers out there.

Thanks.

Ok people. What you see above is the teaser for the new film from Resourceful Gnome Productions. This is the 5th movie in the Airblaster video library. This season Airblaster and K2 Snowboarding joined forces to bring you Respect Your Elders along with help from great sponsors such as: Nike Snowboarding, Capita, Academy, Snowboard Mag, Winter Park Resort, Clif Bar, Atlas Snowshoes and VAS. This season RGP is putting together a movie like no other. The idea was to keep the Airblaster movie making style we all have come to love and incorporate it with a radical new movie concept. Respect Your Elders is a movie about both Young Bloods and respected Pioneers of the sport. Each section in the video is a trip where a couple Young Bloods go out with a couple Elders to learn the ways of true snowboard jedi's. The mix has made for an amazing video that will show everyone where snowboarding came from and where it is going. Respect Your Elders in my opninion stands to be the most anticipated shred flick for me in some time. Take a quick look at the teaser above and mark your calendar for the Fall 2010 release of Respect Your Elders.

Monday Trivia

How many people work full time for Airblaster?

If you know the answer or have a friend or family member that knows the answer send us a email. If you are the first correct answer you win and we send you prizes!

Last week the answer was In the basement of Travis Parkers house in Portland OR. This was where Airblaster was born and also the location of our first office. It was really just a room that we painted, tossed in some electrical and made a little office. It was really just Jesse and Myself that worked in there and to be honest I am not even sure how long we did work out of that spot. After that we moved into a office we shared with a friend that had a screen printing and vegetable oil conversion business. This was located near the Rose Garden in Portland. After that we moved out and did not have an office for about a year. We worked from home in both Portland and Government camp OR. Once we realized that having no official office was not working we moved into an office on 28th and burnside that we shared with Grenade. This worked good but only lasted a year and then Grenade started to have some trouble in their operations and we needed to get out and away from all that. So next was an office down on NW 5th and Couch. This office lasted us about 3 years and ended up being to big. We have since downsized to our current office on 11th and Division in Portland OR. This office is just a little bigger then the room in the basement of Travis's house. We are happy in our spot because it is small and cheap. We realized there is just no need for a large fancy office with open space that just costs money. Soon on the horizon is another possible move into a new office within our current building. If we keep this up we could start running Airblaster office location tours around portland for all our fans.

Our winner last week was Thomas Haraden. Thomas got the question correct and wins some prizes. Keep tweaking.
