The resulting pieces are one of a kind, the partnerships formed in this project a tribute to the depth of the snowboarding, skateboarding and art communities. All proceeds from I AM SNOWBOARDING go directly to the JLA Memorial Fund - the completion of the Brothers Skateboard Park in Mammoth and the support of local art.
