With Snurfing being invented just 40 miles from his childhood home in the Midwest and having access to an abandoned ski hill down the road from his house its not surprising Chris Engelsman known as E-Tree in snowboarding circles fell in love with snowboarding and would feel the pull of the west coast as he became of age to make his own moves. It started with trying to find a good collage but of course a good collage that is in a ski town and this leads you to Colorado. It's a path that is laid out for so many shredders that grow up east of what Chris calls the east coast of the west, Colorado. Chris hit up that collage and showed up with the best intentions but of course it did not take long for him to realize where his true path lead. It lead right to a 11 year career as a pro rider with trick inventions, amazing video parts as well as pro model gear and very importantly he changed the lives of any snowboard that stands 6 feet or taller, as a pro standing some inches over 6 feet he was always walking around with high water pants and a jacket that would pull up to his nipples every time he went to spin. He put together new cuts made to fit the tall snowboarder and the rest is history. So anyone over 6 feet hit him up and say thanks!!! After his pro career Chris went on to become the publisher of snowboarder magazine helping to put out some of the fat issues that we all hear about back when print media was king. Today Chris rides more than most people thanks to his proximity to the resorts in Utah as well as the desire to snowboard for life. E-Tree is a lifer and we are stoked to have him in the community. Sit back and enjoy the E-Tree episode on The Stonie's Buds Podcast recorded at the Boarding House Podcast Studio located in SLC, UT.
