First featured in the Sick Stickz 2011 product catalog is THE MONEY pole.
An inexpensive pole that oozes street cred.
Next is THE ZEBRA.
Lastly, THE CO-ARGYLE POLE celebrates Colorado with a CO state flag/argyle pattern encompassing the majority of the pole.
All models of poles run from 95-130cm
How did the idea for Sick Stickz come about?
Colin was the one who came up with the initial idea.
He thought of the idea a few years ago when we were freshman in College.
We are seniors now.
I believe he had some weird project for a marketing class and had to think of a business idea.
?Who makes up the company?
Colin has always really been the brains behind the business and is the back bone of Sick Stickz.
He usually makes most of the important decisions.
I help pick up Colin?s slack and do a lot of sales work and other basic things.
This year seems to be a big step forward for Sick Stickz.
Your increasing the size of your product line and have new graphics on every model.
Where did this decision come from?
It has been a lot of work, but it seems to be paying off!
Who can we expect to see on the Sick Stickz team for 2010/11?
We have a pretty talented group of guys (and a girl or two) repping our poles.
We look for skiers that are stoked on the product and are really looking to rep hard.
A lot of these kids are incredible skiers, but haven?t necessarily had a break-out season yet.
We will have a few more additions towards the start of the 2010/2011 season.
The hardest thing for us is without a doubt trying to run/grow a business while being full time students.
On top of our busy school schedules we all have part time jobs too.
We are busy, but we still manage to live pretty normal college student lives.
The bulk of our competition is with the big manufacturers such as Scott, Leki, Swix, etc.
How are sales looking for the 2010/11 season?
Will you be selling primarily online, through retailers, or an even mixture of both?
We are currently scrambling to get preorders from retail shops.
It has been super hard trying to get orders and dealing with school at the same time.
We will have a better look at how sales are going to be in a few weeks.
So far it seems to be going well though and we are really excited for next year.
