OutBoard
was founded in 1995 as a learn-to-snowboard event. Over the years it
has grown to be the largest gay and lesbian snowboarding event in the
world and is inclusive of skiers.
“The difference between OutBoard and other ski weeks is that our
events center around making sure everyone is fresh to ride the best
terrain the next day. We take snowboarding seriously and it’s always our
focus” said Ryan Miller, Director of Events and Operations. “We have a
blast socializing and hanging out, but save something for the freshies
the next day.”
But it is more than just an event, the
companion web site at www.outboard.org
with over 3,000 members, is designed as an online community for the
GLBT snowboarding community to find friends to ride with in their own
area and post stories and pictures about their adventures.
