Meet the Artists

Established in 1996, Mountain Gazette is a large-format, coffee-table, limited-edition outdoor culture magazine published twice per year. Their long format stories and eye catching photos are what keep us excited for every new issue. Their slogan, "When in doubt... go higher!!!" is going to work perfectly on an Explore Collection ski!

Matt Stikker is a badass whose created artwork for Metallica, Magic the Gathering, and everything in-between. You might recognize his creepy ink style from The Allplay "Spot Digger" and "Morning Sickness" graphics from the past few years and we're extremely stoked to bring another graphic to life...or death with Matt this year.

Postwook aka Natasha Chomko, based in Los Angeles, creates mind bending collage style artwork. Her swirly psychedelic landscapes put me in a trance I couldn't snap out of! I immediately hit her up to collaborate and apply her wild work of art to our most popular model!

Brophy’s work has this wild, cartoonish vibe that perfectly captures the ocean’s playful spirit. Sunbursts and intricate patterns make everything feel alive and moving. It's a perfect match for a Play Collection ski! His art’s been everywhere – galleries, surf mags, and on all sorts of gear. If you’re in the surf scene, you know his style.

Dominik Modlinski travels to rugged and barren lands to capture the majesty of nature in his paintings. Some of his most extreme painting expeditions took him across continents and hemispheres such as Antarctica, the High Arctic, Greenland, and Patagonia. This piece from his trip to Mount Assiniboine is going to look insane running across the top and base of a wide ski in our Explore Collection!

Julia Veenstra is a renowned Canadian artist and entrepreneur known for her lively and vibrant use of colors in her impressionistic acrylic paintings. I love her paintings of giant trees, so for this collaboration she painted a beautiful tree taking up the full length of the ski from tip to tail. Can you guess which model it's on in the Charge Collection?

Mat Dufresne is a freestyle street skier from Quebec. He's had multiple Dew Tour appearances, is a Level 1 SuperUnknown winner, and recently put out two mind blowing street films: MTL and MTL 2. Get ready for a tasty collab with a Canadian twist on Mat's favorite J skis model!

Mount Mansfield Ski Patrol, founded in 1934, is the oldest ski patrol in the United States. Celebrating its 90th anniversary in 2024, it was established to ensure the safety and well-being of skiers on the slopes of Mount Mansfield, located in Stowe, Vermont. We've been scheming up something fresh to put on patrollers' feet nationwide!
