James Poss, a high schooler at the time, masterminded the impressive project known as Switch Gloves.
From rockered skis to one boot quivers, the sport has progressed in incredible ways.
The luggage we use to transport our gear, however, has remained unfortunately stale.
Switch Designs is looking to change all that, and this boot bag is a strong start.
First off, this bag is sick.
Whats your inspiration for the bag?
Talk me through the creative process?
The photos you see are of the near-final production samples from my factory in Vietnam.
How much is the bag going to retail for?
Retail price on the boot bag will be $239.
I started Switch Gloves with my best friend, Jack Manzi, while still in high school.
I had been following the Bunch for a while, and was blown away by Magnus Real Ski win.
And look out for more team announcements soon!
Whats your fundraising goal for your kickstarter?
My fundraising goal is $10,000.
Thank you to Newschoolers for being the best site on the internet!
Finally, I want to announce that Im bringing back a SASE sticker program.
