A Bitchin’ Vacation To Fight A Killer

(MMD Newswire) July 1, 2009 — This August, Southern California women’s snowboard company BitchBoards(R) will be hosting an amazing getaway to Australia and New Zealand to visit the sites, snowboard in the summer and raise awareness for the world’s leading killer of women, heart disease. BitchBoards® has partnered with the Go Red For Women Heart Foundation (http://www.goredforwomen.com.au) to host several events and demo days throughout the trip to promote awareness about exercise as a prevention of heart disease.

“In the winter, its tough to motivate yourself to get out and exercise,” says Alex Masterson, the owner and creator of BitchBoards® women’s snowboards. “Snowboarding burns up to 500 calories per hour and is so much fun, you forget your working out! Its a great way to keep healthy during the winter months.” Proceeds from the events will go to the Go Red For Women foundation.

Beginning on August 10th in Sydney the group will travel from sand to snow to cover the best of Australia and New Zealand including the Great Barrier Reef, Australian Alps, metropolitan cities and the New Zealand Winter Games (http://www.wintergamesnz.com) For $3700, all accommodations and travel within the two countries are included as well as a free BitchBoards® Snowboard and Matching Bindings (www.bitchboards.com).

Unlike most BitchBoards® sponsored trips, this getaway is not exclusive to women. Friends, spouses, families and anyone who likes to combine philanthropy with adventure is welcome to join!

Trip Highlights Include:
• Four days to explore the great city of Sydney
• Three days to explore and relax at the Great Barrier Reef
• Two days in Melbourne
• Four days in the Australian Alps (Snow Mountains)
• Events for the GO RED FOR WOMEN foundation
• Cocktail hour and free wine at the WINE & BITCH night at Falls Creek
• A four-course meal at Falls Creek courtesy of BitchBoards®
• Three days at the New Zealand Winter Games (Queenstown & Lake Wanaka)
• Two days in Christchurch, New Zealand
• A ?free BitchBoards® hoodie, Snowboard and matching Bindings

MARKET WATCH: Notes From SIA

It was a pleasure to go to the SIA show and see some real excitement and enthusiasm. I talked to a number of new - and not quite so new - as well as small - and not quite so small- brands, who seemed to be doing well and were upbeat. I guess I finally, actually believe that good snow makes the winter sports business not recession proof, but recession resistant.
