Vancouver, BC (Ski Press)-U.S.-based 4FRNT Skis has reached an agreement with Option-NFA Inc. to have all of its freeride skis manufactured in Option’s Vancouver factory.

“We are obviously very excited about the relationship with Option,� said 4FRNT co-founder and team rider Matt Sterbenz. “Option has represented an unparalleled level of quality in snowboarding for over a decade and now we’re bringing that quality to skiers worldwide through the 4FRNT brand.�

The partnership will launch with the production of 4FRNT’s 2005/06 line of skis. The design of 4FRNT’s products will remain in the U.S. and the two companies plan on working closely together to develop, produce and distribute 4FRNT products. 4FRNT co-founder Joe Stumpf says the two companies are a great fit.

“We knew from our first discussion with Option that they were the right partner,� says Stumpf. “We see eye-to-eye on virtually every aspect of this business and the future of our sport.�

“Everyone at Option is ecstatic to have this opportunity to build skis for 4FRNT,� said Option CEO Geoff Power. “4FRNT and Option share a commitment to quality and performance, so it’s a natural fit. Plus, it’s terrific that a snowboard company is making skis for such a progressive freeski company. It’s a reversal of roles in a market dominated by ski companies making snowboards.�

Lake-Tahoe-based 4FRNT Skis team of rider/owners includes Matt Sterbenz, Steele Spence, Vincent Dorion and Niklas Karlström.

"option has a ceo, that's lame."

Funniest thing i've heard all day. Forget having a ceo or anything, let's just make stuff and see where this goes!!!??? God forbid, a small company run properly has to sellout by having management tsk tsk ( hope the sarcasm is noted)

 
who knows, probably, but thats good to see stuff being made in canada or the states, damn mass produced crap from china and area!

'kevin whyed nils pull you out?' 'Cuz i was touchin bitches.' 'No seriously why did he put scott in for you.' 'Scott doesn't touch bitches.'

....first name that would come to mind would be.......Jake Burton?

Although by now they probably have a guy that's strictly buisness for that position...

 
yeah. Option Snowboards makes their skis...... sorta sucks because Sterbenz was alway hypin on the fact that they were made in CA. The State of California was even printed underfoot on every ski, with little stars for special locations. no more i guess.

product demand,cost of production,among other econmic reasons.it cost more to make you skis in the US and Canada becuase the labor and material cost more then in china.
