Jeremy Jones Announces Split With Rossignol Snowboards
Submitted by biglines on Thu, 2009-10-01 11:17
Jeremy Jones, a snowboarder who has graced screens in more than 45 ski and snowboard movies including TGR, Warren Miller Entertainment, and Absinthe films, is leaving his longtime snowboard sponsor Rossignol. He shared on his blog that he is leaving, as outlined below, and says "stay tuned guys..it will make sense in a few days. Thanks for the support!" We'll be interested to see what the spearhead of Protect Our Winters plans to do for snowboard sponsorship, but maybe he'll go with a more environmentally-conscious company, like Nidecker, perhaps? From his blog: "As of today I am no longer working with Rossignol Snowboards. It has been an amazing experience and I want to thank everyone at the company for supporting me the last 19 years. You always gave me the freedom to do what I wanted with my snowboarding. Off the hill I learned a ton about how to develop snowboards from the start all the way to the snowboard shop. This has been my college education. I want to give a special thanks to Francois Goulet, the North American President. He was pivitol in helping me get Protect Our Winters of the ground and always supported my ideas. It has been an amazing learning experience watching him lead the company. I have so many great memories from my time with Rossignol and I wish them the best of luck in the future. Hope to see you all in the mountains."
