					<description><![CDATA[When the Dew Tour rolled into Breckenridge, I had the opportunity to sit down with Danny Davis to find out more about the new 2012 Green Mountain Project outerwear collection. The outerwear will utilize fabric made from recycled plastic bottles. It&#8217;s part of the next phase of the Burton x Mountain Dew partnership which works perfectly since Danny Davis is a sponsored rider of both brands and committed to improving sustainability. For 2013, this vision expands with the launch of the GMP outerwear collection, which includes three stylish and eco-friendly jackets and two pants for men, and two jackets and one pant for women, all featuring fabric created from the pellets of recycled bottles. In addition, the collection also implements recycled and natural blended materials that have a lower impact on the environment whenever possible, such as GMP Hemp Fortex, 3MTM ThinsulateTM insulation with recycled fibers, DRYRIDE EcoNanoshellTM 2L Fabric and 3-Layer Hemp Ripstop Fabric and recycled taffeta and mesh linings.

My grandfather was an instructor and wasn’t stoked when I flipped to “the dark side” at the ripe old age of ten. I ended up at UMass Amherst where I found myself riding the “big” mountains of the East Coast and helped run the UMass Ski and Snowboard Club. Which was basically a club that subsidized the price to ride and party all winter. Bonus! After college I traveled through Central America because why the hell not.

When I was really young, my older step-brother sold his Sega Genesis and all of the games to buy a snowboard, and I resented the snowboard whenever saw it (I really loved Sonic the Hedgehog).

After college, I moved to Vermont and was a snowboard coach for the Mount Mansfield Snowboard Club at Stowe/pizza delivery driver/other odd jobs that had nothing to do with my college degree. I started working in snowboarding when I was 20 as an intern at Rome Snowboards and have remained in the industry since then. I moved [&#8230;]]]></description>
