30 Years of Shred: Why We Stocked Method Mag
A Legacy of Snowboarding
When we think of snowboarding, we think of a culture, a lifestyle, and a community. At the heart of this community are snowboarder-owned and operated brands and media outlets like Method Magazine. For over 30 years, Method has been the voice of snowboarding, capturing the essence of the sport and inspiring generations of riders.
A Rebellion Against the Norm
Founded in 1994 by Anders Hagman and Calle Eriksson, Method Magazine was a breath of fresh air in the snowboarding world. Tired of the polished, corporate image of the sport, they set out to create a magazine that reflected the raw, authentic spirit of snowboarding. They documented the lives of riders, captured the beauty of the mountains, and celebrated the unique culture that surrounds the sport.

At Deckadence Board Shoppe, we’re proud to stock brands that embody the true spirit of snowboarding. Method Magazine is one such brand. Unlike the countless internet fads and copycat brands, Method is a genuine, rider-owned company that has been supporting the snowboarding community for decades.

Don’t Sell Out to the Fads
Don’t let short-lived Instagram fads dictate the future of snowboarding. Sure, those “dope” brands might look cool on social media, but at what cost? By supporting these fleeting trends, we risk losing the authentic brands that have been the backbone of our community for decades. Let’s prioritize quality, heritage, and the riders who truly shape the sport.
It’s crucial to support brands like Method and other independent brands that are owned by riders. These brands are the lifeblood of the snowboarding industry, and they need our support to continue to thrive. By choosing to shop at local board shops and supporting independent brands, we can help to ensure that the snowboarding industry remains strong and vibrant for years to come.
So, the next time you’re looking for snowboarding gear, remember to support the brands that support the sport. Visit your local board shop today and help keep the snowboarding community alive. Don’t let yourself say “I miss that place” tomorrow!
