SKARDS - SKIER TRADING CARDS


I founded Skards in 2020 while coaching the Freestyle Ski Team at Mammoth Mountain. Skards is an original trading card company that features athletes, photographers and industry leading brands in an effort to bring the community together.

Since it’s inception, the vision is to pay hommage to the legends and pioneers of our sport, while providing exposure for up-and-coming riders and skier-owned businesses. Each season showcased a new format;




ONLINE STORE


Shouout Shopify, a label printer, and some self-daught web-dev skills. The Skards Online Store is a well-polished canteen for trading cards and freeski-related merchandise.




INSTAGRAM FLYERS & CAMPAIGNS


I aimed to create a pack every month throughout the duration of the winter season, with each pack having it’s own theme.  With the support of collaborating brands, production studios, and gear contributions for raffles, the business scaled quickly and was met with enthusiasm amongst the community.



VULGUS 365 COLLAB


Expanding off the 8-bit gameboy style I used in “Proshred,” an animation I made during Covid, the Season 4 launch was one of my favorites...




LEVEL 1 PRODUCTIONS PACK


The Level 1 Productions Pack was an incredible way to end Season 2. I grew up binging their yearly videos and trying to emulate their team riders’ style.




WINDELLS & XGAMES


Featured in the camp store, over 500 packs sold at Windells Camp and a the fans at X Games Aspen were stoked.
