Tara Dakides and Sessions have reunited with Dakides joining the U.S. Pro Team. Sessions was Dakides first sponsor when she was just 19 and kicking off a career that has seen one of the most groundbreaking moments in the world of women’s riding. Stay tuned for Sessions’ signature Dakides jacket and pant dropping for 2011.

“Life really does come full circle… Sessions was my first sponsor back in the day (19 years old) when a girl getting sponsored was few and far between.  It’s a trip to come back after all these years with a new outlook and more experience. I’m excited to have more creative freedom with my outerwear designs and to be able to work with such great people who love to ride. Sessions is one of the few core snow/skate companies alive. I say core in the sense that they have kept it real and true with there riders and the people who work hard to build the brand. It’s nice to feel a part of helping build something and appreciated in the process. It’s good to be home!” –Tara Dakides

“I’m stoked to see Tara back with the Sessions family. She is so passionate about what Sessions stands for- snowboarding, skating, music and friendship.” –Joel Gomez

“Snowboarding has a lot to thank Tara for. In a time when women’s snowboarding was not as popular as it is today, Tara was breaking boundaries. She was not only progressing woman’s snowboarding but snowboarding as a whole. She paved the way for the Gretchen’s and Torah’s of today and opened up everyone’s eyes to what was possible. Cheers to you Tara and welcome back!”- Brett Butcher, Sessions Team Manager
