Venice, CA – Arbor Snowboards is proud to welcome Ian Sams to their national snowboard team. “I’ve been watching Ian over the last couple years and I’ve been amazed with the consistency of his style. He makes some of the most difficult tricks look simple and solid,” says Arbor team director, Brad Farmer. “He’s a staple in Bear Mountain’s Sunday In The Park videos and their movies and he’s on the come up. I couldn’t me more amped to welcome Ian to the Arbor family.”

“Arbor and I have a lot in common…we both love the greens,” says Sams. “They’re commitment to the environment and my commitment to hitting pipes, ripping bowls and preventing forest fires go together like Funions and the munchies. This season, I plan to hold it down at Bear Mountain filming for the Sunday’s and to head out on some urban missions around the country. I’m looking forward to riding at home and road tripping. Either way, I’ll be stacking in footy. Oh, for sure!”
