					<description><![CDATA[Late last season I had a phone call with Mark Sullivan about a new website called MTNOPS that would be a new snowboard community launching products slowly into the market.  I got on board with the crew and now months later, they debuted at SIA with American made products.  With hearts in the backcountry and driven by snowboarding powder lines, they have created products with their brand right here in the United States.   The community came first, then came the products that were useful for any rider.  The Riders Journal, safety cards, limited number of hats.  They came slowly but offered up something new that wasn&#8217;t following the fads.   At SIA, MTNOPS came out with 3 snowboards that each tell a story, outerwear that will keep you warm and layers to keep you breathable.  The t-shirts, hats and hoodies feature artwork based around the mountains.  The riding journal and safety cards are must have&#8217;s for the mountain, easy to put in your pocket and could save your life.   MTNOPS made in the US:  Washington, Idaho, Nevada, Utah, California, Colorado, Montana, Georgia, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey and South Carolina.  Even the catalog was made in the US.  The [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Every year there are fewer American made snowboard products but for 2009-2010 MTNOPS is launching their products straight out of the United States. Here&#8217;s the latest from Mark Sullivan on the upcoming line, &#8220;The jacket featured in this promo is called the Merican &#8211; and we will show the only american made gear like this at the show (SIA). We also have a womens version as well called the Valkyrie.&#8221; Stay tuned for more as SIA is quickly approaching. In September I went through my closet to see where my snowboard products were made, only MTNOPS and Never Summer were made in the United States. Check out your labels to see what countries you support&#8230;it might surprise you.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Hailey, ID – December 8, 2008 – MTNOPS is proud to announce a partnership with Arctic Cat Snowmobiles. This partnership allows MTNOPS the ability to have the best tools in the industry to access powder to shred. Arctic Cat is the obvious choice for snowboarders on the mission of seeking access to the backcountry. Their M8 Sno Pro model has been the snowmobile of choice for those wanting a light, powerful, and reliable snowmobile. The nimble M chassis has been the one to beat in the pow since it was introduced in 2005. Each year it has been refined to become the kingof backcountry snowmobiles. “We are really excited to work with Arctic Cat,” says MTNOPS president Mark Sullivan, “They have really upped the ante for all sled makers in terms of creating new benchmarks for mountain performance. Their constant improvement approach to development makes the new M8 a logical choice for snowmoboarding and a great fit for MTNOPS.”MTNOPS brand manager Eric Pearson says, “I have been riding Arctic Cat sleds for years because they have been the first sled company to understand that snowboarders have the same passion as mountain riding sledheads, we all dream of that perfect day [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Hailey, ID – November 21, 2008 – MTNOPS is proud to introduce the latest addition to its technological arsenal –GPS integration. Now you can ride with a GPS unit or GPS enabled cel phone that outputs a .gpx file and view and share your day on the hill in a new way. According to technology developer JP Stoermer, “Making a GPS map of your riding is as simple as uploading an image. Export a .gpx file, upload and your map is created. This is the first step in MTNOPS GPS/rider integration.”When activated, consumer GPS units record a location every second. This second by second account of your position tells you where you went, when you stopped, for how long, and how much vertical you covered. “This technology has the potential to change the way riders look at and record their riding experiences. I know it will change the way that I snowboard forever. Now I can find all of those spots that I happen across when riding a new hill,” says Mark Sullivan, MTNOPS CEO. Compatible units output .gpx universal GPS file format and are available in price ranges from $50 and up. After riding, simply download the file created [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[In May, Mtnops.com introduced their all mountain riding journal on snowboard-mag. The riding journal was done in collaboration with Rite in the Rain which produces all weather writing paper. Mtnops is a brand dedicated to introducing new and different ideas to snowboarding through products that are useful, durable and unique, and marketing that embraces the culture of the sport. For the 2008-2009 season Mtnops is offering a small range of American made clothing and accessories to a limited number of specialty snowboard retailers. The journal in size is 4 1/3 by 6 inches. As a riding journal it lets you input the date, location, weather &#38; conditions, terrain, riding crew, highlights of the day, notes on gear, notes on riding and notes on stuff you&#8217;d like to work on. I purchased it directly from mtnops here for $12.00, it came packaged in a topographic map and included a variety of mtnops goodies like a wind chill chart/trick list, 2 all-weather mtnop pens and the mtnops dog tag necklace. I spend at least 10 days of the season doing on-snow demos where I take out a number of different boards plus many more days of the season testing snowboards for Never [&#8230;]]]></description>
